The Hoovac H-Sleeve is developed to provide long-term protection for insulated HVAC pipes against the most common causes of damage. Thanks to the combination of high-quality EPDM and integrated cellular rubber insulation, the sleeve offers optimal protection against UV radiation, moisture, extreme temperatures, pests, and mechanical stress. This keeps the underlying insulation intact, extends the lifespan of the installation, and maintains performance.
Damaged pipe insulation leads to energy loss, breakdowns, and unnecessary maintenance costs. The Hoovac H-Sleeve prevents wear by effectively shielding the insulation from external influences. This keeps the installation in optimal condition for longer, reduces repairs, and lowers the total maintenance costs over the lifespan of the system.
The H-Sleeve is made from a strong EPDM protective layer with integrated cellular rubber insulation. This high-quality material is resistant to UV radiation, ozone, moisture, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical stress. Thanks to its lasting flexibility, the sleeve retains its protective properties even under harsh conditions and during prolonged outdoor use.
Whether the installation is used indoors or outdoors, the Hoovac H-Sleeve reliably protects against rain, sun, frost, and heat. In addition, the sturdy protective layer prevents damage caused by birds, rodents, and other pests. This ensures the insulation continues to function optimally and significantly extends the lifespan of the complete piping system.
The integrated Velcro closure along the full length makes the H-Sleeve easy and quick to install. Thanks to the double overlap, a neat, secure, and splash-proof finish is achieved, even around bends and connections. The retrofit installation saves installation time and makes the sleeve suitable for both new and existing installations.
The Hoovac H-Sleeve is designed for a long lifespan of at least 15 years and is completely maintenance-free. The product is recyclable, halogen-free, and complies with REACH, RoHS, and SVHC regulations. This means you are choosing not only reliable protection, but also a sustainable solution that contributes to a lower Total Cost of Ownership.
