Fire protection insulation

U Protect System The U Protect system for passive fire protection combines all the advantages of conventional thermal and acoustic insulation with increased fire protection.

The U Protect system has been tested under EN 1366-1 and EN 1366-8 and assessed against BS 476: Part 24. It offers up to 2 hours passive fire protection in HVAC ventilation and smoke extract ducts as well as 1 hour passive fire protection for kitchen ducts.

The system consists of slabs, wired mats and accessories for rectangular and circular ductwork systems.

Insulation of pipework

CLIMPIPE Section Alu2 Strong foil-faced pipe sections in a choice of thicknesses and diameters to accommodate a variety of pipe diameters.

The lightweight preformed `snap-on’ sections, with an aluminium foil facing and a self adhesive overlap right to the edge, provide an inherent vapour barrier and fast, neat installation.

Providing excellent thermal performance with additional acoustic benefits, the sections are supplied in 1.2m lengths (one of the longest solutions on the market) resulting in fewer joints and reduced handling.

All our glass wool products are manufactured from up to 80% recycled glass - reducing environmental impact.

There are several reasons for applying insulation to pipework and ductwork, whether it is to control temperatures, save energy through reducing heat loss, improve acoustics or protect personnel from burn injuries.

Hot surfaces

In applications operating at elevated temperature, insulation helps in providing:

• Fuelconservation - To reduce heat loss from pipework and ductwork. All hot pipework will normally need insulating as they operate typically with temperatures around 60°C for domestic and non-domestic applications.

• Temperaturecontrol - To prevent temperatures falling below a certain pre-determined level and to help conserve energy.

• Personnelprotection - To prevent injuries to operators such as burns during the normal course of their duties, in locations where they could come into contact with surfaces exceeding 50°C.

Cold surfaces

In low temperature applications, insulation helps to:

• Reducetherateofheatgain - Correct insulation will reduce the energy needed to maintain low temperatures in pipework.

• Preventsurfacecondensation - If pipework and ductwork are not adequately insulated then condensation can form on the surface, leading to equipment damage such as corrosion.

Acoustic performance

Noises at home and within a workplace can affect people in numerous ways, causing stress, tiredness and reduced productivity and motivation. Glass mineral wool insulation has an inherent acoustic performance, to enhance the acoustic comfort of those living and working within the building.

Why insulate pipework and ductwork?


With more than 40 years of experience in the UK and across the world, ISOVER manufactures a full range of glass mineral wool insulation products that offers a number of benefits compared to alternative stone wool solutions such as excellent thermal performance and lighter weight.

✔Excellentthermalperformance
