Welcome to the International Association of Heat and Frost
Insulators & Allied Workers, Local No. 118 Health and Wellness
Trust Fund and Heat and Frost Local Union 118 Pension Plan.
What are Heat and Frost Insulators?
The primary work of the trade involves the application of
various insulating materials to hot and cold surfaces. Heat
and Frost Insulators cover exposed surfaces of pipes, steam
generators, ducts, process vats and related equipment using a
variety of insulating materials to reduce loss or absorption
of heat, prevent moisture condensation and deaden sound.
Insulation work is generally associated with larger industrial
or commercial projects such as power plants, chemical plants,
nuclear power houses, heavy manufacturing or processing
installations including refrigeration. Smaller commercial work
includes plumbing, heating and air conditioning insulation on
such buildings as schools, churches, apartments, shopping centres, hospitals and "tunnel" or "ditch"
work. In BC the 300 active members of Local 118 of the
International Association of Heat and Frost Insulators &
Allied Workers work around the province at refineries, pulp
mills, gas plants, ice rinks, hospitals, commercial outlets
and, also on boats and high rises.
A Health and Wellness Plan and a Pension Plan have been arranged by the
respective Board
of Trustees and administered by D.A.
Townley & Associates Ltd.
