Nice, very cool. what are those? is there a name for them?

One of my operators is making them up based on your pipe lengths. He is going to get me more information. The nice thing is they're reusable each year and water proof. We are testing them out.

They look really nice on. Great idea.

He says he can make them any color or even put a print on them as well. I told him he should also look into making kevlar back end reducer covers as well. It took him about an hour to insulate a 45 meter pump.

That's a great idea, there should be a market for those.  What is inside for insulation?

Todd: Yes, the name of the product is WrapidCon Insulation systems.  Todd Jr. has all of the contact information for the company. I know we are not supposed to promote products but you asked for the product name.

inside is a double sided reflective bubblewrap to reflect cold away and reflect heat in also vice versa in heated climates to keep concrete cold.
