Summary

This is a Technical Specifications document (Section 23 07 00) for Thermal Insulation for Mechanical Systems at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, issued in April 2019. The specification establishes comprehensive requirements for field-applied insulation and accessories on mechanical systems including piping, ductwork, and equipment. It mandates compliance with ASHRAE 90.1 energy standards and references numerous ASTM, NFPA, and industry standards for material performance, installation, and testing. The specification requires that insulation materials meet strict fire and smoke ratings (maximum flame spread index of 25 and smoke developed index of 50 per ASTM E84), contain recycled content where practicable (rock wool minimum 75% slag, fiberglass 20-25% glass cullet, rigid foam 9% recovered material), and be CFC/HCFC-free. Qualified installers must have completed at least three similar projects within five years.

The specification covers three primary insulation system types: pipe insulation for aboveground and below-ground pipelines ranging from minus 30 to 700 degrees Fahrenheit, duct insulation for cold, warm, and exposed air systems with minimum thicknesses specified in Table 4, and equipment insulation for cold and hot equipment with thicknesses determined by Tables 5 and 6. Acceptable insulation materials include cellular glass (ASTM C552), flexible elastomeric cellular (ASTM C534/C534M), mineral fiber (ASTM C547), calcium silicate (ASTM C533), phenolic foam (ASTM C1126), and perlite (ASTM C610), each with specific applications based on service temperature and environment. Vapor barrier/retarder requirements vary by application; cold systems below 40 degrees Fahrenheit require vapor barriers while interior systems above 40 degrees Fahrenheit may use vapor retarders. All installations must include detailed MICA (Midwest Insulation Contractors Association) plates for submittals, display samples for inspection, and proper sealing at penetrations, hangers, and fittings using specified adhesives, mastics, jackets, and sealants.
