Default Replacing copper HW tank.

I replaced my hot water tank with one that came covered with 2" of foam
which I then painted. Much better than the previous jacket. I like
having an immersion heater as a backup in case my boiler is not working.


My similar foamed tank is in the integral garage and I wondered
if there was any point in adding any extra insulation? There
isn't a lot of clearance, but I suppose I might drape something
over the top similar to the old jackets.
