    This document contains the results of an economic analysis for insulating a 10-inch pipe carrying natural gas with various thicknesses of insulation. It analyzes insulation thicknesses from 1 to 10 inches. The key results shown are the insulation and installation costs per foot per year, the resulting fuel savings per year from reduced heat loss, and the payback period in years for the added cost of the insulation. Insulating with 1 inch of insulation results in a payback period of 0.1 years, or 1 month, while most thicknesses between 1.5 to 5 inches result in a payback around 0.1 to 0.2 years. Thicknesses of 6 inches or more see payback periods extend to 0.3 years
