Garage doors

It’s not the flashiest part of your home, nor does it demand attention. Yet you’d be hard-pressed to find another object or piece of equipment in your home that does more for your overall well-being than your garage door.

If you’re contemplating whether or not to insulate your garage, you probably know by now that there is no set rule. Some government organizations say that the common wall between your home and an attached garage must have a certain R-value, as must any ceilings that have rooms above them. There are currently no regulations for detached garages.

Now more than ever before, home improvements and the decisions on related products are heavily influenced by energy efficiency, as well as environmental, concerns. Garage doors are a perfect example – there are efficient doors, and not so efficient. This aspect of garage doors is determined by a measurement called R-value. So what is it, and how can you decide which value you need?
