This chapter is a guide to specifying insulation systems for refrigeration piping, fittings, and vessels operated at temperatures ranging from 35 to -100°F (2 to -70°C). It does not deal with HVAC systems or applications such as chilled-water systems. See Chapters 23, 25, 26, and 27 in the 2017 ASHRAE Handbook–Fundamentals for information about insulation and vapor retarders (barriers) for these systems.
