Hey Everyone,
I have the drywall guy coming out this Monday and had a question about pipe wrap. In general I was thinking about picking up some of the foam pipe wrap at home depot. It is about $2.00 for 6 feet. Does it pay to install this? I was not too concerned about the insulating properties...moreso, the condensation. I have tried searching on the benefits, but have not found anything concrete.
I am cool with not doing it, since it's one less job, but I also don't want to find out after five years of condensation build up I now have an issue.
Maybe I am over thinking the condensation. just wondering if it is something I should do. It will probably take an hour and cost $100.00...
So, is it worth doing? Or can I accomplish the same thing with bat insulation and duct tape?
Thanks...Mike
