scope:

This Practice describes the requirements for inspection insulation by providing an Insulation Inspection Checklist, PIP INTG1000-F.  The checklist is designed to apply to both cold and hot insulation systems as well as large-scale projects and individual items.  As a result, there are specific items on the checklist that may not apply to all projects.

Each section has a line for ranking workmanship.  Because workmanship is somewhat subjective, ranking is provided.

Comment sections are provided where appropriate.

This Proactive assumes that individuals charged with marking the inspections are experienced in the design and installation of insulation systems and are well acquainted with the PIP Insulation Practices.

The checklist does not provide sufficient information to act as a stand-alone document that would allow an inexperienced person to function as an inspector.

Purpose

This Practice provides a checklist for use by individuals responsible for ensuring the quality and completeness of an insulation job.
