Tank & Pipe Insulation

Tank & Pipe Insulation

Lagging water tanks and pipes reduces the amount of heat that escapes, so you spend less money heating water up, and hot water stays hotter for longer.

Insulating your hot water cylinder is one of the easiest ways to save energy and therefore money. If you already have a jacket fitted, check that it's at least 75mm thick. If not, it's worth treating your cylinder to a new winter coat.

Fitting a British Standard jacket around your cylinder will cut heat loss by over 75% and save you around £40 a year - more than the cost of the jacket!

Insulating your cold pipes can save you the distress of having burst pipe during the winter.
