Insulate Hot Water Heaters and Hot Water Pipes

Insulate both your water heater and hot water pipes to realize considerable savings all year round.


In terms of the heater, make sure that you don’t cover the top or bottom of the tank, nor get insulated material anywhere near the thermostat or burner compartment. For the pipes themselves, you can either go with specialized insulation sleeves for use with hot water pipes, or make up your own out of strips of thin insulation.
