Source for Pipe Insulation

Manny_PGH

I am looking to add some insulation to some "bare" pipes and all the elbows and joints on the main. Can anyone recommend a source?

Searched on the web and found this - does it look ok as a source - seems to have a lot of different options available

call john manville

http://www.jm.com/default.htm ..ask them for a local distributor for 1"thick fiberglass pipe insulation..local will be cheaper than online...try to stick with at least that thickness...

shipping

The killer for online is shipping. The insulation comes as 3 foot lengths and most places consider it oversize even though the weight isn't much.

I used the locator and found a place only 5 miles away. If they do not deal directly with the public I will get them to tell me who I need to go through. Thanks.

I got ours from:

We used Owens Corning, and it makes a heck of a difference in how the system performs. The insulation that is.

Thickness

Where I have insulation it is 1" thick. Should I plan to replace that with thicker stuff, since I saw on one of the sites that 2" thick was available?
