It is very easy and simple to insulate your hot water cylinder, and can save you around £20 per year by fitting a ‘jacket’ that is approved by British Standard around your hot water cylinder, you will reduce heat loss from your cylinder by over 75%. If you already have a jacket around your cylinder, check that it is at least 75mm thick, and if it not, it would be worth getting a new thick jacket.
Insulate hot (and cold) water pipes with quality pipe insulation wrap or strips of fibreglass taped around the pipes. Close fitting pipe sleeves manufactured from polyethylene or neoprene are the most popular means of insulation and must be secured, seam–down, to the pipe with acrylic tape every couple of feet.
Insulating the hot water pipes raises the temperature of the water, which means you can lower your water temperature setting to save energy — with the additional benefit that your hot water will come through more quickly so you’ll be saving water as well.
