Insulation is important in HVAC design because it helps to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature while reducing energy consumption. It helps to prevent heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. By insulating ductwork, pipes, and HVAC equipment, the system can operate more efficiently, reducing operating costs and prolonging the life of the equipment. Insulation can also help to improve indoor air quality by reducing condensation and preventing mold and mildew growth. Overall, insulation is a key element in achieving optimal performance and energy efficiency in HVAC systems.
