HEAT FLOW & SERVICE TEMPERATURE

A table of typical k-values appears below for two common Fletcher Insulation products used in HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) and Light Industrial applications.

In cases where the operating temperature is a fluid that will contact the inside surface, it should be assumed that the internal surface temperature is equal to the operating temperature and the appropriate selection made in the drop down menu.
