Garage Door Insulation in Vancouver

Advantages of Insulating a Garage Door

Along with added efficiency, the bonuses of garage door insulation include:

• Durability. Insulated garage doors are tougher and more resistant. They can cope not just with changing weather conditions throughout the year but also with shifting temperatures, sudden impacts, and so on. The insulation helps to guard the frame and garage door components against wear, tear, and degradation.
• Soundproofing. If you spend a lot of time in your garage working, exercising, or anything else, you might be bothered by the sounds outside. Well, garage door insulation doesn’t just block out cold air or excessive heat – it blocks noise, too, making your garage a more peaceful place.
• Protection. You might use your garage to store stuff like old items, antiques, boxes of toys and clothes from the past, and so on. If it’s exposed to really harsh conditions there – like frosty temperatures – your stuff might wear down quickly. But, with insulation, it’ll be protected and thereby last longer.
• Car Benefits. Of course, the main purpose of any garage is to store your car and shield it against the elements. But, if your car is still getting cold and frosty or super hot in the garage, it could affect key parts, like the battery and tyres. Creating a more stable environment (with insulation) will protect your vehicle.
• Added Value. Home improvements like garage door insulation also impact property value in a positive way. Adding some insulation to your garage can help you attract more interested buyers when the time comes to sell up and move on, and it may help you get a higher final price, too.

What Type of Insulation is the Best for Your Garage Door?

There isn’t just one form of garage door insulation. It comes in several materials and styles, like spray foams and cellulose. Here’s a rundown and recommendations of which insulations work best in different settings:

• Foam Boards: Foam boards are simple to work with, thin, and affordable. They add a soft but powerful layer of insulation to your garage door panels, which is great for improving overall efficiency.
• Foam Sprays: Spray foams are like foam boards but easier to work with, especially in tight spaces. You spray the foam out, and it fills the available space, good for complex door shapes.
• Cellulose: Cellulose is a natural insulator that is good for eco-conscious homeowners. It’s more costly than foam but more effective at keeping the cold out.
• Reflective Insulation: Reflective insulation does exactly what it says – it “reflects” heat back into the home. It works great in homes in reasonably mild or warm areas.
• Fiberglass: Fiberglass is the most affordable choice. So, if you’ve got a tight budget, this is the one to go for.
