Key Responsibilities ✅ Installation & Fabrication * Apply insulation materials (e.g., mineral wool, calcium silicate, PIR foam, aerogel) to pipes, boilers, ductwork, and tanks. * Fabricate custom sheet metal cladding (stainless steel, aluminum) for weather/impact protection. * Prevent cold bridging and condensation through precision fitting. Maintenance & Repair * Inspect and replace damaged insulation in hazardous areas (ATEX zones, chemical plants). * Conduct thermal imaging surveys to identify heat loss/faults. * Remove/reinstall insulation for equipment maintenance (e.g., valve access). ️ Safety & Compliance * Adhere to COSHH for handling insulation fibres/dust (e.g., silica, asbestos legacy risks). * Follow working at height (IPAF/PASMA) and confined space protocols. * Ensure fire-stopping integrity for penetrations (BS 476-20/22)
