Protection From Hot Pipes & Components Using Insulation Blankets

Thermaxx Jackets recently had a customer that was seeking to insulate all of the hot pipes and components in their learning facility after an employee had been burned when coming into contact with a bare hot component’s surface. Removable insulation blankets by Thermaxx Jackets are great for improving your steam system’s energy efficiency, but the safety benefits for your personnel are overlooked far too often. Read more.

Flexible Insulation Blankets

Traditional stay-in-place thermal insulation for piping and other components is rigid, and if it’s partially or fully removed for inspections or maintenance it usually can’t be replaced. Insulation that isn’t flexible, or rigid insulation, doesn’t work for every application. There are some cases where insulation blankets, like Thermaxx Jackets, are a better solution because they can be made with alternative insulation materials that are flexible. This allows for components of irregular shape to be insulated effectively. Read more.

Cold Pipe Insulation: Types and Materials

Featured Post

Insulation is not just used for containing heat. It is also used to control cold pipe systems and keep them functioning properly and in good repair. There are several issues to be dealt with when using insulation jackets on cold pipe systems. The first and possibly most important concern is controlling condensation…More

Cryogenic Insulation Jacket For Liquid Helium Pump

A customer contacted us about insulating a machine designed to liquefy helium so that it can be transported throughout the machine. In order to do this, the helium must be cooled to about 4 Kelvin (-452⁰ F). Our job is to ensure that the components of the machine are insulated well enough to keep the helium at that temperature. This was by far the coldest application we have encountered so far, so the design of the jacket was going to require some special thought… More

Regulating Boiler Room Temperature

A hot boiler room creates many problems. Typically, the ceiling of a boiler room is the bottom of the floor directly above and because heat rises the ceiling area is hot, extremely hot. Many times, we see temperatures exceeding 115°F! The floor above the boiler room radiates heat into the occupied space causing an unanticipated load on the cooling system. The space is so uncomfortable that windows are opened in the winter time wasting more heat. Read more.

Getting To Know Your Building: The Commercial Facility Energy Assessment

Since ThermaXX started manufacturing removable insulation jackets in 2007, we have tripled in size. Our growth can be attributed to the strong energy drives across the US and throughout the world! There are benchmarking requirements in many US cities. Benchmarking requires a facility owner to report energy usage to the local building department. Often times if this information is not submitted there are violations and fines that will be imposed. In addition to benchmarking, energy auditing and retro commissioning are also becoming requisite… More

Commercial Boiler Insulation

Whether your commercial building is heated using a state-of-the-art high-efficiency commercial boiler or one that twenty years old, you can make it even more efficient by enhancing your commercials boiler’s thermal efficiency with removable insulation blankets made custom for your boiler.
