Insulation thickness calculator
ArmWin is a professional technical calculation program that helps mechanical engineers calculate the proper thickness to be specified for Armaflex elastomeric foam insulation. Installing the proper elastomeric insulation thickness is key to the long-term performance of mechanical HVAC, plumbing, and refrigeration systems. Unlike the previous ArmWin CD that had to be downloaded and installed on a PC, the latest ArmWin is designed to reproduce the functionality that users enjoy in an easy-to-use app for smartphones. Users can save project-related results for further use and forward reports via email to themselves, colleagues, or clients.
