This specifi-cation does not cover fabricated pipe and tank wrap insulationwhere the insulation has been cut and fabricated to provide afiber ori

5、entation that is perpendicular to the surface (face).1.3 For satisfactory performance, properly installed protec-tive vapor retarders must be used in below ambient temperatureapplications to reduce movement of water vapor through oraround the insulation towards the colder surface. Failure to usea va
