Pre-cut Polystyrene pipe insulation was used to insulate Crowns Casino’s Plantroom in Burswood. Chilled water pipework that services the air conditioning system was insulated with Polystyrene pipe sections to maintain the low operating temperature and prevent condensation occurring.
Polystyrene foam a highly efficient thermal insulation material ensures that the air-conditioning plant maintains its operating temperature keeping energy costs to a minimum. The pre-cut pipe sections were computer cut to size in sections, which were faced with an aluminium foil vapour barrier. Once the insulation lagging had been fitted to the pipework and additional stainless-steel sleeve was wrapped around the insulation to protect it.
