What Types of Pipes Should Be Insulated?
Not all pipes need insulation, but there are several key areas where it's especially beneficial:
- Hot Water Pipes: Insulating hot water lines reduces heat loss and improves water temperature consistency, so you don’t have to wait as long for hot water or crank up the heater.
- Cold Water Pipes: While it may seem counterintuitive, insulating cold water pipes helps prevent condensation and protects against freezing in colder climates.
- Pipes in Unheated Areas: Pipes running through attics, basements, crawl spaces, and garages are more exposed to temperature extremes. These are prime candidates for insulation.
- Outdoor Plumbing: Any exposed piping outside your home or in exterior walls is at higher risk of freezing and should be insulated.
Our licensed plumbers will assess your plumbing system to identify which pipes would benefit most from insulation and recommend the best solutions.
