NFPA 13 has several diagrams of suggested insulation techniques. But for years, most of us have adhered to the "tenting" technique of insulating CPVC piping. This entails making a "tent" around the pipe using either bat insulation only, or incorporating rolled plastic with the insulation on top of it. This seems to work very well, when done properly. My question: where is this "tenting" technique outlined, or suggested? It isn't in the current edition of 13, where did we originally get this concept? Could if be from the manufacturer, or older editions of 13? I remember seeing a diagram of this technique, but can't find it now.
Thanks in advance.
