FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

        INSILCO HOLDING CO. REPORTS SOLID SALES AND EBITDA GROWTH FOR ITS
                               FIRST QUARTER 2000


         COLUMBUS, OHIO, MAY 4, 2000 -- INSILCO HOLDING CO. (OTC BULLETIN BOARD:
INSL) today reported substantially higher sales and operating results for its
first quarter ended March 31, 2000. The Company said that results for its Taylor
Publishing business unit, which was divested in February 2000, are being
reported as discontinued operations and are therefore not included in
consolidated sales and adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation, amortization and non-operating items plus regular cash dividends
from Thermalex, the Company's 50% owned joint venture). The Company is also
providing comparative results including and excluding Romac Metals and McKenica,
which were divested in mid-1999.

         The Company reported a 26% increase in first quarter sales for the
Company's core automotive and technologies businesses to $141.4 million from
$112.3 million recorded last year. Contributing to the double digit sales
performance were: increased demand for custom assemblies and precision stampings
from electronic and telecommunications Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs)
and Electronic Manufacturing Service (EMS) providers worldwide; a rebound in
demand from heavy equipment manufacturers for specialty heat exchangers; and the
benefit of $21.7 million in sales from acquisitions completed after the first
quarter 1999. Including sales from divested operations of $8.1 million in the
1999 first quarter, consolidated sales for the current quarter increased 17%
from $120.4 million recorded last year.

         Adjusted EBITDA from ongoing operations for the current quarter
increased 22% to $19.6 million from $16.1 million recorded last year. The
Company reported that consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the current quarter
increased 17% to $19.6 million, compared to $16.8 million recorded last year,
which included EBITDA of $0.7 million from divested operations. Substantially
improved margins on power transformers, wire and cable assemblies, precision
stampings, and specialty heat exchangers, as well as the contribution from
businesses acquired after the first quarter 1999, all contributed to the strong
EBITDA performance.

BUSINESS DISCUSSION

         The Company's Technologies Group reported 41% sales growth in the
current quarter to $78.4 million compared to $55.4 million recorded last year.
Sales increased across all product categories, with the strongest demand in
precision stampings (up 23%) and wire and cable assemblies (up 16%). First
quarter sales also benefited from $14.6 million in sales from acquisitions
completed after the 1999 first quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the Group increased
67% to $11.7 million in the current quarter, compared to $7.0 million recorded
last year. Operating margins for power transformers, wire and cable assemblies
and precision stampings all increased nicely from a year ago, and the Company's
TAT Technology acquisition made a strong contribution to the substantial
improvement in operating performance.

         The Company's Automotive Components Group reported sales of $63.0
million for the current quarter, compared to $56.9 million reported last year.
First quarter 2000 sales included $7.1 million from the Company's third quarter
1999 acquisition of Thermal Transfer Products, Ltd. Adjusted EBITDA was $8.9
million and $8.2 million for the current and last year's first quarters,
respectively. Group results were positively impacted by the contribution from
Thermal Transfer and substantially higher margins for specialty heat exchangers,
however, the impact was somewhat moderated by lower domestic tubing margins and
a mix shift towards lower margin heat exchangers.

CEO COMMENTS

         David A. Kauer, Insilco President and CEO, said, "Favorable market
trends across all of our technologies product segments, the full benefit of our
1999 cost restructuring, and a robust economy all contributed to our strong
first quarter performance. During the first quarter, we also completed the
divestiture of Taylor Publishing and redeployed the sale proceeds into the
acquisition of TAT Technology. TAT, a leading Montreal-based wire and cable
assembly business serving the rapidly growing telecommunications market,
performed well above our expectations for the first quarter and is on track to
be a solid contributor for the full year."

         "In our Technologies businesses, we continue to see strong worldwide
demand from electronic OEMs and EMS providers and we continue to aggressively
reduce our cost structure. In our heat exchanger business, we completed the
consolidation of our Duncan, SC tube manufacturing facility into our Montgomery,
AL facility and expect improvements from this move to make a positive
contribution in the second quarter." Kauer concluded.

REPORTED RESULTS

         The Company reported net income of $39.0 million for its current first
quarter, which included $40.2 million attributed to the sale of the Company's
Taylor Publishing business unit, compared to a net loss of ($2.4) million
recorded a year ago in the first quarter. Income/ (loss) available to common
shareholders for the first quarters of 2000 and 1999 was $25.43 and ($1.50) per
diluted share, respectively.

         Insilco Holding Co., based in suburban Columbus, Ohio, is a diversified
manufacturer of industrial components. The Company's business units serve the
telecommunications, electronics, automotive and other industrial markets. The
Company had 1999 consolidated revenues in excess of $476 million.
