When it comes to garages, many do not have insulation at all, and most builders cut costs by not adding garage insulation when a home is initially built. However, garage insulation can be incredibly beneficial and should not be overlooked. At KC Spray Foam & Coatings, LLC, our insulation experts understand the importance of garage insulation and are proud to provide our customers with quality garage spray foam insulation services.
The Importance of Garage Insulation
For many homeowners throughout the Kansas City metro area, the garage is used quite often, not just as a space to park cars, but also as a workshop, a storage space, a temporary office, or even as a home gym. In order to get the most out of your garage and continue using the space throughout the entire year, garage insulation is essential. By adding spray foam insulation to your garage, you will keep your garage and house at comfortable temperature levels year-round and ensure you enter a warmer car on those freezing winter days.
Why Use Spray Foam Insulation in Garages?
Bonus room or bedroom floors above garages are typically insulated with fiberglass insulation. Unfortunately, fiberglass does a poor job of keeping those floors warm. When the first cold front comes, our insulation experts at KC Spray Foam & Coatings, LLC get many calls each fall about these cold floors. In some cases, we see frozen pipes in these floors due to the poor performance of fiberglass insulation. Since spray foam is both an insulation and an air seal, it works far better in these areas.
Insulating a garage with spray foam will keep it warm, and in most cases keep it above freezing without the need for a furnace or a heat source. Wouldn’t it be nice to get into a car that is 50-60 degrees rather than a car that was in a garage well below 32 degrees?
