started living in old 100 + Years old house last owner had made some improvement but this house is still lacking. Insulating exposed copper pipes in basement to prevent condensation or sweating .is supposed to  save  a buck or 2 in energy consumption be it gas or electric water heater  sow  went to my local hard ward store  for sum-ting else and saw that the pipe installation was on special for like a $1.20  got 5 piece and had enough to insulate my basement
