you take 56 feet of pipe and that is how much linear feet you will need, resulting in 56 feet. if you are not sure what to buy, go to your local Lowes and they carry 6 foot sections of foam pipe insulation that simply slips on. you need 56' feet of it or 10 pieces. Be sure to buy some duct tape and tape approximatly every 18 to 24 inches and where the pieces run into each other to hold it in place.
