The apparatus includes one or more layers required depending on the distance which any equipment installed in the opening extends beyond the wall surface. An embodiment for a rectangular insulating cover apparatus includes corner pieces, horizontal wall pieces, and side wall pieces. Corner pieces are configured to allow the horizontal wall pieces and side wall pieces to be slid into the corner pieces. The depth of the insertion into the corner pieces can be varied depending on the desired dimensions for the insulating cover apparatus. After cutting the top cover the required dimensions for the opening in the insulating cover apparatus, top cover corner boots and C-channels are installed on the top cover which is then pressed into place. A method for assembling and installing the same is provided, as are other aspects.
