So, I have 4 steam risers in my apartment and the temperature was reaching over 85 degrees sometimes hotter.

I do have my window cracked sometimes, but when I return from work it’s so hot and stuffy.

I did some research and bought some fiberglass pipe insulation. They each measure 3ft long with a thickness of 2 inches of insulation. Also rated up to 1000 degrees!

The heat has dramatically reduced in temperature because of this. The insulation is cool to the touch especially when the percussive sounds of the banging and clanging commence.

My super also approved of me using this pipe insulation and said it was a good idea.

Here is the link for those interested. 😊
