NBR Foam Pipe With Aluminum Foil (Price/R-ft)

Whether dealing with PPRC (plastic pipes) or GI (metal pipes), exposure to direct sunlight on rooftops can cause these pipes to heat up significantly, making the water flowing through them unusable. Conversely, in winter, the water can become too cold for use without heating, leading to increased energy costs for heating water and subsequently higher gas bills. In many regions of Pakistan, gas is scarce in winter, resulting in reliance on electric water heating, which is even more costly.

To maintain a consistent water temperature year-round and reduce energy costs associated with cooling in summer and heating in winter, pipe insulation is an effective solution. Insulating pipes and source tanks not only minimizes the cooling load on chiller and RO plants but also extends the lifespan of compressors by reducing their running time.

Pipe Insulation Materials

Numerous insulation options are available for pipe insulation, but the best choice depends on factors such as temperature range, efficiency, cost, and lifespan. Smart Materials Solutions offers a variety of pipe insulation types to meet your specific needs. Each option has its own advantages and limitations, so we recommend consulting our experts before making a final decision on the material for your pipe insulation. The table below summarizes the key parameters to help you choose the right insulation for your specific need.
