1. Identify the advantages of installing thermal insulation

Insulation can generally save between 5% and 15% on annual energy bills, depending on the configuration of the building and the quality of the insulation installed. In some cases, particularly in older or very energy-intensive buildings, savings can be as high as 15%, or even 20%, depending on the performance of the insulation and the length of the insulated networks.

Industrial insulation, i.e. the thermal insulation of pipes, tanks, boilers and other equipment carrying hot or cold fluids, represents a major solution for reducing the energy consumption of industrial sites.

Insulation reduces heat losses of up to 10°C between the boiler and points of use in a non-insulated installation. This direct reduction in losses translates into a significant drop in energy consumption. According to audits and feedback, the energy savings achieved through...
