Worthwhile to insulate hot water pipes in basement?
wrote in message
...
Live in zone 5 have 1900 square foot house, and boiler/hot water heat. I
have about 400' of 3/4 and 1 inch copper in basement and crawl space in
this
system....Is it worth the effort to insulate these things? I checked Home
Depot and a little over $100.00 to do the job...Any Idea how much savings
in
energy.........tia
Is this copper for baseboard heat? If so, insulate the crawlspace as that
would be wasted heat loss. The heat in the basement helps to heat the
house.
