P.M. Insulations:
Heating Ventilation

P.M. Insulations can supply and install a wide variety of heating and ventilation insulation solutions for buildings. The requirements for the insulation are generally to keep the circulating hot water or warm air at a constant temperature, or to avoid increased heat in cooling water or cold air systems, thus providing a more efficient system, and preventing condensation. In HVAC applications, fire safety is an important factor when choosing the insulation. 

A wide selection of insulation products can be used in the mechanical systems in buildings, including pipe sections both for heating and warm water piping systems as well as cold and cooling water piping systems, thermal insulations for boilers, furnaces, heat exchangers, tanks, and other heat transfer equipment, thermal and fire insulations and sound absorption products for ventilation and air ducts, as well as thermal and fire insulations for chimneys and exhaust pipes.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

The requirements of HVAC insulation are to keep the circulating cold air, hot water or warm air at a constant temperature, thus providing a more efficient system and preventing condensation. In the HVAC applications, fire safety is an important factor when choosing the insulation.

Heating and warm water piping

The extensive range of pipe section sizes covers all standard dimensions for pipes generally used for heating and domestic water. The pipe sections are easy to install and can be coated with various products as required by the specification and site conditions.

Cold and cooling water piping

Pipe sections coated with vapour-proof mesh-reinforced aluminium laminate are suitable as condensation insulation for cold water and cooling water pipework. Besides preventing moisture damage caused by condensation, the insulation also prevents the water in the cold water pipes from warming up, thus giving a more efficient system.

Air ducts

According to general building standards, it is important to insulate the air conditioning ducts against heat and fire. Taking care of sound attenuation is also vital when ensuring a comfortable environment. Thermal insulation assures the functionality of the air conditioning system and directs the right kind of air to places where it is required.

Insulation of equipment

Energy can be saved efficiently by appropriate insulation of the core components in the heat generation and distribution systems of a building, such as heat distribution and boiler room equipment, since they combine the highest temperatures and the greatest heat releasing surfaces.

Chimneys and exhaust pipes

Insulation of exhaust flues and other such objects, function as fire insulation against other building structures as well as preventing flue gases from cooling and condensation. In exhaust ducts of reserve power engines, temperatures may rise to several hundred degrees when in operation. The insulation of the ducts must be dimensioned to prevent the surface temperature of the insulation from exceeding +70°C in places where this could pose a potential burning risk.

Insulated Velcro Covers

Bespoke made insulated Velcro covers are predominately used to insulate maintainable items such as valves, flanges, plate heat exchagers and water cylinders. The jackets are designed to save energy and heating costs, for frost and weather protection and to provide burn protection on items operating up to 1000c.
