Does mdpe need to be insulated as it comes up to the surface from 750mm?

[Mike_1605]

Hi, does the mpde supply need lagging as it comes back up to the surface from 750mm down and if so what should I use?

Also part of the run can be along a wall to cut down on digging, will armaflex be ok to insulate it?

Thanks in advance!

Insulated and in a duct
Not sure if the type of insulation is specified.
Check with your provider? I assume they will want to sign it off

That's brilliant, it's just a supply running out to our garden room but I want to make sure it's done properly. Will run an insulated duct up under the garden room and another up the wall outside the house. What lagging would u normally use? Was thinking 25mm armaflex or is there a better product to use?

Thanks, you can tell I only work on boilers!
