Hello,
I'm just replacing the old lead pipe coming into my house for a 32mm MDPE pipe. Obviously it will be buried on the outside, but where it enters the house (in the cellar). I'm going to have to "lag" insulate it. I couldn't see anything specific for doing this size pipe.
The current pipe enters in a completely different place and we don't have a problem with freezing, however the new place, and insulated floors etc, the cellar will be a cold place till it gets into the utility.
The pipe will run through the cellar for around 15 meters before going into the house. I bought some wrap around insulation, but i'm worried it won't be enough if we have -10 degree winters again.
Thanks for any help.
