Insulation is a vital resource that protects a facility from energy loss and physical damage. When installed correctly, mechanical insulation is the only item in a building that starts to pay for itself immediately. Insufficient and poorly installed insulation around heating and cooling systems is, by far, the biggest cause of lost energy and dollars. Insulation will save you both energy and money. It also cuts greenhouse gas emissions, improves indoor air quality and decreases noise pollution. For example: if you properly insulate a valve with 2" of insulation, you will see immediate results. Within a year, you could save:

49 million BTU's of heat loss

7,600 lbs. Of CO2 emissions

15lbs. Of nitrogen oxides emissions

$600 in total energy savings.

some pipes within the oil and gas industry run at 1200 degrees Celsius (2192 Fahrenheit) .calcium silicate or rocsol insulation provide substantial heat retention. whats more, some insulation is provided as a sound barrier as well as providing fire protection

How many watts of heat are required to maintain the desired temperature in a well-insulated room?

The number of watts of heat needed to maintain the desired temperature in a well-insulated room depends on factors such as the size of the room, the outside temperature, and the insulation quality. It is typically calculated using the formula: Watts (Room Area x Temperature Difference x U-Value) / Insulation Quality.
