Insulations for installation

Insulation for installations - the key to system efficiency

Insulation for installations is the foundation of efficient and durable plumbing and heating systems.   At Onninen, we understand their importance perfectly. Our many years of experience allow us to provide optimal advice. We offer a wide range of high-quality products. They are tailored to the various needs of our customers. Insulation protects against heat loss and condensation. They also provide acoustic and fire protection. Their correct selection affects the efficiency of the entire installation.

Types of insulation for installation in Onninen's offer

In our assortment you will find various insulations. We offer 5mm thick sewer pipe sleeves. Grey 2m polyethylene sleeves are also available.   Polyethylene insulation in various thicknesses is popular: 9mm, 13mm and 20mm.   For specific applications, we recommend 6mm grey polyethylene insulation. Customers often choose 10m red insulation sleeves. Each product has its own unique properties and applications.

Our offer includes renowned brands. Among them, Armacell and Anticor stand out.   We pay special attention to our own brands: Onnline, Fxa and Ironside.   These products combine high quality with an attractive price. They have been developed based on our experience. They respond to the real needs of installers and designers.

Criteria for selecting insulation for installation

The choice of the right insulation depends on many factors. The type of installation plays a key role. The operating conditions of the system are also important. The temperature of the medium and the environment must be taken into account. Air humidity is also important.   The thickness of insulation affects its thermal efficiency.   Thinner casings, such as 5mm or 6mm, are suitable for simpler applications. Thicker insulation, 13mm or 20mm, provide better thermal protection. They are ideal for heating installations.

The color of the insulation may have practical significance. Red insulation is often used to mark hot water. Gray insulation is universal and aesthetic. The length of the insulation, e.g. 2 m or 10 m, affects the convenience of installation. Longer sections work well on straight sections. Shorter sections make it easier to insulate complicated parts of the installation.

Practical applications of insulation for installations

In our daily practice we observe various applications of insulation.   9mm polyethylene tubes are often used in water installations.   They protect against condensation and heat loss. Thicker insulation, 13mm or 20mm, works well in heating systems. They provide better thermal protection. This translates into lower heating costs.

5mm insulation is often used in sewage systems. It reduces the noise of flowing water. This is especially important in residential buildings. Red 10m sleeves are used to mark hot water. This makes it easier to identify pipes during maintenance or repairs.   In the case of industrial installations, the resistance of insulation to high temperatures is crucial.   This is where specialist products from the Armacell and Anticor brands come in handy.

We recently completed a project for a large office complex. We used an insulation system combining different thicknesses and materials. 20mm insulation was used on the main routes. 13mm insulation was used in the technical rooms. 9mm insulation was selected for the utility water installation. This differentiated approach provided optimal protection while controlling costs.

Proper selection and installation of insulation for the installation translates into real savings.   In a typical residential building, this can mean a reduction in heat loss by as much as 20-30%. This translates into lower heating bills. Additionally, insulation protects pipes from freezing. This is crucial in unheated basements or attics. A professionally insulated installation lasts longer and operates more efficiently.
