Insulate your hot water pipes

Insulating your hot water pipes is a good idea if you want to minimise energy consumption. Homeowners wasting between DKK 1,000 and 2,000 annually by paying for the heat lost through uninsulated pipes is not unusual.

For example, if you have 8 metres of uninsulated pipe running from your heating unit to your sink, that could add up to an unnecessary waste of heat of up to DKK 1,000 annually. The cost of insulating your hot water pipes is typically recouped in less than a year.
