Pros: cheaper than some
"If you need to insulate your water pipes in the loft or elsewhere then this is ideal.
It is easily cut with a sharp blade so you can fit it around "T" pieces or valves etc.
Being pre cut, a quick run down with a knife means you can easily slot it over existing pipes, even those close to walls or other obstructions.
May not save you a fortune in heating bills, but could save you from suffering from burst pipes later in the year."
