Tap Jacket

Product Information

Standard Alkaline Earth Silicate (AES) insulation wool jackets with an infill of 50mm provide the following thermal conductivity. Head of Water Treatment, Stephanie Cawley, said: “Before you turn your attention to your Christmas wrapping, why not spend an hour or so lagging external pipes around your property – it could save you time and money. Furthermore, a flexible jacket system is less likely to sustain damage than traditional stainless steel cladding that can easily be dented and allow moisture ingress.

The jackets can also provide an effective covering of sharp edges of application equipment and thus providing a safer working environment. million per day through means of a 3-day fitting schedule, in comparison to a 7-day installation schedule using traditional methods. Make sure that you and other members of your household know where your stop tap is located so that it can be reached quickly in an emergency, and most importantly, check that it’s working properly. Designed to fit closely around awkward pipe features, valves, vessels, flanges and actuators to maximise insulation and remove possible sharp edge hazards. Specific labelling can be provided so insulation jackets that are removed for maintenance, they can be easily replaced.With a flexible jacket solution, removing the insulation for regular maintenance or inspection need not be a challenge. Registered plumbers can also check household pipes to make sure they’re properly lagged and fill in any gaps. The insulated valve jackets can be tailored to provide thermal insulation to the requirements of the particular application according to ISO 12241:2008 calculation rules.

Wrap all pipework, fittings, and storage tanks in unheated areas of your home (such as lofts, roofs, outbuildings and garages) with insulation. If you do have a problem with your water supply this winter, with either low pressure or no water coming out of your taps, first check to see if your neighbours are having similar trouble. Jacket fastenings such as hook and loop, lacing hooks or turn buttons mean that a speedy removal can be achieved for the purpose of maintenance or repair. The jackets are held in place by simple fastening systems, such as stainless steel fixings, straps and/or hook and loop tape. Even for smaller scale HVAC insulation projects, the jackets can save up to a third in installation time in comparison to more traditional insulation systems.If more than one household is affected, you’ll need to ring Severn Trent’s 24-hour emergency number to report the problem - 0800 783 4444. Surface temperatures can be effectively reduced using high-temperature jackets, insulating high-temperature equipment and reducing the risk to personnel from burns.
