Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on
convert-me.com FaceBook pageThank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

If I have 3'' diameter pipe and 56' of pipe, how do I find out how much insulation I need in linear feet?

The distance of a line in feet is linear feet, so you need 56 feet of pipe insulation sized for 3" line pipe.

you take 56 feet of pipe and that is how much linear feet you will need, resulting in 56 feet. if you are not sure what to buy, go to your local Lowes and they carry 6 foot sections of foam pipe insulation that simply slips on. you need 56' feet of it or 10 pieces. Be sure to buy some duct tape and tape approximatly every 18 to 24 inches and where the pieces run into each other to hold it in place.
