How do I Make my Garage Doors Quieter?
Invest in an insulated garage door that can lessen any noise coming from it or your garage door opener. The reverse can be true if your neighbors are noisy and you would like a noise-controlled garage.
Homes have insulation, so why not your garage door? Like a security blanket, insulation for garage doors will make the noise coming from your motor muffled or a light purr if it makes any more noise at all. Any other type of noise that would cause disturbance to neighbors would be prevented with insulated garage doors, or thermally injected garage doors.
Energy-Efficient Garage Doors—Who Knew?
Insulating your garage door is important if you want to lessen energy costs. When talking about insulation, there is an equation of how much insulation you need for effectiveness. The R-value measures your garage door’s energy efficiency. The higher the R-value, the more efficient your garage door will be.
Unlike walls within a house, garage doors don’t need as much width of insulation. The going rate for insulation in garage doors is R-6 to R-9 insulation due to the limited amount of spacing. The level of insulation required for safe efficiency depends on where you live. Our experienced Ellis Overhead Door technicians will know the amount of insulation your garage door needs.
In relative comparison, insulated wall cavities in Texas homes normally range from R-13 to R-15 insulation. In southern Texas, insulated walls in gas- or oil-heated homes only reach up to R-13, while walls in Texas homes with electric heat expand to a minimum of R-19 insulation.
A Temperature-Controlled Garage
You might notice your average garage door is paper thin. Beyond the steel or aluminum exterior, your garage is susceptible to uncomfortable summers and cold winters. Studies done by garage door manufacturers have proven that garage door insulation can keep your garage 20 to 25 degrees cooler in the summer and 8 to 12 degrees warmer in the winter. If you spend any amount of time in your garage, insulating your garage doors would turn it into a nice potential living space.
The recommended amount of insulation applies to attached garages as well as detached garages that are not air-conditioned. With an additional layer to your garage door, you’re on your way to luxury with a temperature-controlled garage with an insulated garage door!
