Usually we insulate the exhaust piping to prevent the fume from accessing the condistioned zones also to protect condensation of water in the inside of the duct could cause some potential hazard and duct  deprication rate uincreased according to sulpheric and other Acids Formation in the duct 

 specially in garages so the purpose of insulate the ventilation piping first according to the projects .scope is to protect the spaces and the inside of the pipe
