The technology of installing pipeline systems transporting different liquids has always taken into account the harsh conditions of most regions of Russia. These engineering networks have always been insulated. In the not so distant past, glass wool and its modifications were the main material designed to prevent freezing of pipes. And nowadays there is a tendency to use this insulation during the laying of heating systems, hot and cold water supply, sewage.
This happens, in all likelihood, from a lack of information among those who make such a decision, because there is no economic benefit from the use of mineral and other wool because of its hygroscopicity. Therefore, it is worth paying attention to modern thermal insulation materials, one of which is energy flex for pipes.

Technical characteristics of the tube made of foamed polyethylene Energoflex
Energoflex is a heat insulation material for pipes, which is a flexible thermal insulator. They use building material to insulate the pipeline and any other surfaces.
Insulation is produced from high-pressure polyethylene, which is extruded and then foamed. The structure of the initial substance is porous, the cavities are filled with air. Thanks to this, it was possible to achieve impeccable thermal insulation properties.
Thermal insulation Energoflex is produced in the following types:
- Hollow tubes that fit over the tubes. The diameter of the products ranges from 18 to 160 mm. The material can be put on entirely on a metal structure or cut lengthwise and then glued together. The latter option is used if the pipes are not insulated during the construction of the pipeline, but in the process of its modernization.
- Rolls. Can be foil or not. Foil insulation is most in demand. Such material can be used to insulate floors and other complex, hard-to-reach systems.
- Thermal insulation pipe Energoflex can also be produced in the form of sheets. The material is a flexible thermal insulator plate that is used to ensure the operation of fittings or pipeline sections with large pipe sections.

Slitting method. Thermal insulation is installed on already installed piping systems. The thermal insulation tube must be cut with a short-blade knife along the axis, mounted on the pipeline. Glue the cut and additionally secure it with a clamp, glue the ends of the tubes together.
Installation of rolls. Thermal insulation of pipes with a diameter of over 160 mm is carried out with roll material. This installation method is also used for the installation of several layers of thermal insulation. To do this, measure out the required circumference, cut off the required length and width section from the roll, and carry out installation.
Wedge cut method. This method must be used on pipelines with a diameter of up to 90 mm. In the insulation tube, using a miter box, wedges are cut from the inside at an angle of 22 ° or 45 °, depending on the angle of rotation. The distance between adjacent wedges is 5-10 mm. All cuts are glued and held together with a clamp.
Bevel cutting. The method is used to obtain right angles of rotation. Subsequent operations are similar to the previous methods.
Diameter marking.
For bends of pipes with a diameter of 90 mm and above, it is recommended to use roll insulation.
To do this, cut out two half-sectors ABCD, which are glued along the line L, the thermal insulation is installed on the pipe and the inner corner is glued. The remainder is cut perpendicular to the pipe.
From the whole variety of insulating materials for pipelines, you can easily choose the one that you need in this particular case. The use of thermal insulation will save money, maintain the required temperature of the coolant or prevent liquids in the pipeline from freezing, and prevent the appearance of condensation.

There is a wide variety of pipeline insulation materials. Each type has individual characteristics that must be considered when choosing. For pipeline insulation the following are used:
- liquid products;
- polyurethane foam;
- expanded polystyrene;
- basalt wool;
- fiberglass materials;
- foam material.
Liquid insulation is in great demand due to the following characteristics:
- Due to its liquid consistency, the building material can be applied to hard-to-reach and uneven places, hidden areas.
- Installation, in comparison with the installation of other types of thermal insulation, takes less time and does not require special training.
- The more layers of thermal insulation are applied to the surface of the pipeline, the better the heat will be retained.
The composition is applied using a spray gun or a special brush.
Fiberglass insulation is also in high demand. The peculiarity of the material is low weight, the structure does not rot. Therefore, pipelines passing on the street are insulated with mineral wool. Installation is carried out as follows: the pipes are cleaned and degreased, then wrapped with an insulator and securely fixed with knitting wire. To enhance protection against harmful environmental influences, they are additionally insulated with foil or roofing material.
Basalt wool is an insulating material that is made in the form of plates and cylinders. It does not allow moisture to pass through, has increased strength and fire safety. Installation is easy, no special skills required.
Energoflex Black Star Dact and Black Star Dact Al
It is a roll-up self-adhesive material of black color, designed for heat and sound insulation of pipes in HVAC equipment and air exhaust systems.

Insulation energoflex: tips for use
The first and most important condition for a high-quality and safe installation is the production of work only on non-working equipment and non-functioning pipelines.
Their operation is allowed to start no earlier than 24 hours after the completion of the Energoflex thermal insulation installation.
It is installed on a welded pipeline only after the pipe section has cooled.
All work is carried out at a temperature not lower than 5 * C. At a lower level, self-adhesive materials are not able to provide a high-quality seal.
Glue is used to connect the joints. It is applied in an even layer on both surfaces to be glued and cured for 3-5 minutes.
