  • Cellulose Insulation bags of cellulose insulation

    Cellulose is a highly effective and economical material for insulating walls and attics. Made from recycled newsprint treated with a fire retardant, cellulose is blown into the space between wall joists and attic floor joists to increase the R value, or resistance to heat loss. Sold in 25-pound bags.

    Price: $14.95/$13.46

    You can also rent our insulation blower.

  • Hot Water Pipe Insulation hot water pipe insulation

    Hot water can lose heat as it makes its way from your water heater to the tap. Dennis Comfort Seal closed-cell poly foam insulation will provide a layer of insulation for your hot water pipes for an affordable price. The three-foot lengths of insulation are slit to slip easily onto pipes. Use a utility knife to cut at any corners. Comes in packages of 12 linear feet for two different sizes of hot water pipe. (Pipe size is measured by inside diameter.) Not for use with heating pipes; domestic hot water pipes only.

    Price:
    For 5/8" pipe: $5.99/$5.09
    For 7/8" pipe: $6.99/$5.94

  • Fiberglass Pipe Insulation fiberglass pipe insulation

    A great deal of heat can be lost between a home's boiler and its living spaces. If you have a warm basement, pipe insulation will help reduce your heating costs by keeping the heat in your pipes until it arrives at your radiators. Our 1"-thick fiberglass insulation is beefier than that found elsewhere. It has an outer foil jacket and comes in 3-foot lengths in a variety of diameters. You can borrow our pipe gauge to measure and order correctly, as pipe sizes are measured by internal diameter. For steam or hot-water heating systems. Prices are per linear foot.

    Price:
    For 1/2" pipe: $1.90/$1.55
    For 3/4" pipe: $2.05/$1.70
