Most lumber yards or hardware stored sell it by the 48 inch joint. You can either use contact cement or duck tape on the split and the joints.
I can't find anything locally short of buying an entire carton - we only need approx 12'. Amazon has this - but I'm not sure if ⅜" thickness is enough. And/or, we had planned to wrap it with the heat tape like the pipes in the barn are, but again — how much is enough - too much? If we have to give $100+ for a box of insulation, we might as well hire a plumber to do it. Open to any suggestions. Christmas day is supposed to be 65, and raining — go figure, only in MO. But it will turn cold again and we want to be prepared.
Thanks guys. DH not up to planning this and I'm flying blind. We can pull off the siding, reach in and wrap the pipes, then wrap with the heat tape and plug it in under the sink. At least that seems to be reasonable.
