Pratt Thermal insulation cover for safety showers

The product is a foam-based thermal barrier designed to reduce heat gain in safety shower systems. It is constructed with a reflective foil layer bonded to insulating foam. The cover is supplied in pre-cut sections that are slit for easy wrapping around pipework. It is intended for use on the exposed parts of shower units where direct sunlight can raise water temperature.

It protects against the rise in water temperature caused by solar radiation on stored or standing water within shower systems. By limiting heat transfer from the sun, it helps maintain safer, more usable water temperatures during emergencies. Performance varies depending on local climate and sun exposure across different regions of Australia. The cover does not insulate the water supply itself, only the shower unit's exposed surfaces.

It is typically installed on outdoor safety showers where piping and shower heads are exposed to direct sunlight. Proper application requires sealing joints with the included self-adhesive foil tape to maintain effectiveness. For optimal temperature control, the water supply lines should also be insulated, either by burying underground or applying additional thermal covers. This product addresses only the shower head and immediate fixture area, not the entire water delivery system.
