Insulation, the Forgotten Technology for Energy Conservation
In the Commercial, Industrial, HVAC & Mechanical Segments of the Construction Industry
The story of how mechanical insulation can improve your business and benefit the economy and the environment.
|
 |
You may think you have heard this story before, but now you can get the “rest of the story.” Did you know that insulation is applied but rarely engineered? Did you know that it is estimated that between 10% & 30% of all installed mechanical insulation is damaged or missing? |
| This presentation provides evidence as to the “Power of Insulation” in the new construction, expansion and maintenance arenas when designed, installed and maintained properly, including an overview of some innovative initiatives and products - systems in the mechanical insulation industry – like nanotechnology and evolving web-based resources structured as a vertical portal to many aspects of the mechanical insulation industry. |

Are you familiar with the results of the Department of Energy’s Save Energy Now Program and how they have viewed insulation in their assessments? Have you heard about the National Institute of Building Sciences Mechanical Insulation Design Guide? Insulation can reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions; increase your available carbon credits, be an important part of sustainable design initiatives, be part of your safety program, increase manufacturing productivity; eliminate or at minimum reduce corrosion under insulation, control condensation and mold growth and provide an unrivaled return on your investment so why is it a “Forgotten Technology”? |
Usually what sounds too good to be true, isn’t. That is not true in this case.
You need to get the “rest of the story.”
National Insulation Association (NIA)
NIA is a fifty year old trade organization whose members specialize in contracting, distribution – fabrication and manufacturing of mechanical insulation for industrial, mechanical and building applications, refractory applications, environmental remediation and other related services
