Thermal Insulation Services
Here at Linear Insulation we are dedicated specialist contractors in the field of thermal insulation relative to the Commercial & Industrial, environment. Over the last few years our products have started to be looked at in a different light, global warming has alerted the world to the need to increase energy efficiency and help to save power through more intelligent means.
Energy Loss Surveys are a simple way of quantifying the savings that could be made through the correct installation of thermal insulation to your pipe work and associated parts. Along with energy savings the surveys will also highlight the following:
- Preventative maintenance issues
- Improvements to existing installations
- Benefits / savings through replacing aged insulation
Electric heat tracing, heat tape or surface heating, is a system used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes and vessels. Trace heating takes the form of an electrical heating element run in physical contact along the length of a pipe. The pipe must then be covered with thermal insulation to retain heat losses from the pipe. Heat generated by the element then maintains the temperature of the pipe. Trace heating may also be used to protect pipes from freezing, to maintain a constant flow temperature in hot water systems, or to maintain process temperatures for piping that must transport substances that solidify at ambient temperatures.
