Most engineers and architects are familiar with using insulation to reduce heating and cooling loads and control noise in building envelopes. Insulations used for pipes, ducts, tanks, and equipment are not as familiar to them. The installed cost of these materials is usually a small part of the total cost of a project. As a result, mechanical insulation is often overlooked or improperly specified in commercial and industrial construction projects.
