Is it worth it to heat the garage?

Garage heating is an individual issue. Many people choose not to heat the garage during the winter, because they simply do not need it. Unfortunately, too low a temperature in the garage can contribute to the condition of the car. In addition, unheated garages incorporated into the space of the house contribute to cooling the living space and increasing the home’s insulation bills. This does not mean that the garage should be heated. In the first instance, it is worth considering which areas make the garage cool. This is combined with the tightness of the garage door and its thermal insulation. Sectional doors with a favorable heat transfer coefficient can make heating in the garage unnecessary.

What can be done to keep the garage cool?

The garage is a space that many people use for more than just storing a car. In many homes, it is a place that replaces pantries. For the sake of any products stored in the garage, it is worth taking care of the right temperature in summer and winter. A leaky garage door can lead to excessive warming of the garage, or, on the contrary, to its cooling. In both cases, this makes it more difficult to use the room, reduces the condition of the car and can contribute to damage to products stored in the garage.

Thermal insulation in the garage – why is it important?

The decision to dispense with heating the garage should involve insulating its walls. To do this, the walls, floors and ceilings are covered with Styrofoam, which provides the room with an additional thermal layer. The layer of Styrofoam should be adjusted evenly to the thickness of the walls and ceiling of the garage. Another issue is to make the garage airtight, both for the windows and the garage door. Performing all the steps is tantamount to preventing heat from escaping from the room, as well as excessive heating of the garage.
