Boiler Supply and Return Piping

Boiler Supply and Return PipingBoiler Supply and Return Piping - Any heating pipe system will experience a heat loss in the pipe even when the pipe is insulated. The loss is far greater when the pipe is uninsulated. Good boiler piping insulation will reduce the heat loss experienced in the pipe run throughout the loop especially where the pipe runs in unconditioned or unheated spaces where heating is not necessary.

Boiler Supply and Return Piping

Good Supply and Return Insulated Pipe will increase the efficiency of the boiler and reduce overall the heat loss of the entire system as a whole throughout the heating season. Insulate exposed piping wherever you find it and replace old insulation that is falling off. Be careful to identify the correct insulation and never ever disturb asbestos insulation. Asbestos is dangerous especially if you breathe in the particles from it. A professional asbestos remediation company must be hired to remove it safely.
