Frequently Asked Questions

Can I install this pipe lagging myself?

Absolutely! Tubolit foam lagging is very user-friendly. You simply open the pre-slit tube, fit it over the pipe, and you're done—no need for glue, tape, or specialist tools. It's great for both quick fixes and larger insulation jobs.

Will this help reduce noise from water pipes?

Yes, in addition to thermal insulation, foam lagging can help reduce the noise of water moving through pipes—particularly in central heating systems. It dampens vibration and sound, making your home quieter.

Is this lagging suitable for outdoor use?

While Tubolit lagging is designed mainly for indoor applications, it can be used outdoors if it’s covered or housed in a weatherproof enclosure. Direct exposure to UV and moisture can degrade the material over time, so protection is key in external environments.
