Anyone have any good ideas on some type of insulating sleeve of some sort to stop condensation this summer on my drip filters? They are dripping all over lol

I have all the pipes insulated all over but the canisters are a pain

Trev, I do not have this problem. Could you post a pic so I can understand what's happening?

I put a pan under it to catch whatever drips off.

What is the diameter of the pipe? I use foam tubular pipe insulation on my well water lines. Lots of condensation forms on the pipes in summer with the humid air. The insulation helps prevent most of the condensation- block exposure to the air. You might be able to use some sort of insulating pipe tape too.
 
This is what we use at work. I don't know what it's called but the best comparable solution I can tell you is buy pool noodles and run a blade down 1 side and slip it over your pipes. You can wrap them in aluminum tape for piece of mind if you want.
