Heat & Frost Insulators install many different types of insulation material for the thermal protection of hot and cold mechanical systems. Insulating is performed in virtually every type of residential and commercial building in the country, as well as industrial plants, chemical factories, nuclear power plants, and military and space facilities. Insulation mechanics select and install the proper material for each and every type of insulation application. Insulation is installed using a variety of techniques-stapling, wiring, pasting or spraying depending on the type of surface to which the insulating material is being applied.
