I am thinking of installing foam insulation around one of my PEX hot water lines that has to travel quite a ways from the water heater to the Kitchen faucet (~100 feet) to help keep it insulated a little better. The problem is that the PEX is attached tightly to the floor joists above, running both perpendicular and parallel to the joists (see pictures).
I am wondering if there are any tips for installing this? Should I pull the pipe hangers out one section at a time, and flip the foam insulation over it and then re-install, or how can you slip it over with it being positioned right on the wood?
