Pipe Insulation Underway at the Peoples Bank Building for Energy Efficiency

Measuring insulation.
Insulation is carefully measured and cut to fit around the pipes, joints and elbows.

At the Peoples Bank building, crews are insulating pipes as part of the ongoing restoration. This step helps improve energy efficiency by preventing heat loss and reducing condensation around the pipes. The process involves carefully measuring and cutting the insulation to fit the pipes, including joints and elbows. Once the insulation is in place, it is securely fastened and sealed to ensure a tight fit, preventing energy loss and moisture buildup. By insulating the pipes, the building is being prepared to meet modern energy standards while enhancing comfort and long-term sustainability.
