Hey guys. .. looking for a source for clamshell style pump insulators, specifically for grundfos 15-58 super brutes. I've got a chiller system that is sweating like crazy even with the motor heat. .TIA!

    good luck

    I called up Grundfos & Wilo asking for this very thing and they said they don't have such a thing. I mentioned that I saw pictures of their pumps sporting them and I swear I could hear their eyes roll over the phone as they said "Not in North America"



    I use Armaflex 2" X 1/8" insulation tape for this task & while functional it's not too pretty.

    just one?

    or are you looking for an ongoing source? I know such a product does exist.

    You could modify one of the solar pump station covers.



    Be sure the pump is rated for the temperatures you will be running at.
