How to Make Garage Doors Energy Efficient

While you most likely don’t spend much time hanging out with your family in your garage, it’s still important to saving energy in your home. Your garage is the most overlooked space in your home – you don’t keep the door to it open, and you don’t have a heater or AC vent running into it, but believe it or not, your garage can suck up and use a lot more energy than you think. Designing or improving your garage to be more energy efficient is no small task – but Bob’s Advance Garage Doors is here to help! We offer a wide variety of services that help make your garage much more energy-efficient, so you can put some money back into your pockets each month. 

How do I make my garage door energy efficient?

When it comes to your garage door, there is only one way to make sure no cold or hot air comes in. Because there are small gaps on the bottom side of your garage door where it meets the ground, you will most likely have some air come in that can cause the inside mechanics of your home to work harder. If it’s super-hot out and you have your AC unit running, but hot air is getting inside your garage that you go in and out of, there is more hot air getting into your home than you think – it’s all a ripple effect. 

The way to stop this from happening is to properly insulate your garage. While you may be able to do it yourself, you may not insulate everywhere you need to, and you may not do enough. That’s why you should call the team at Bob’s Advance Garage Doors! We are skilled and trained to properly insulate garage doors, so your house can work and run smoother than ever.

What are the benefits of insulating my garage door?

Insulated garage doors do more than keep unwanted critters out. It benefits you and your home more than you think. Here’s how…

• Comfortable temperatures -- Depending on where you live, you may experience extreme temperatures. By insulating your garage door, you are keeping unwanted hot or cold air out of your home, maintain a more comfortable temperature because that air has more layers to pass through now. 
• Energy Efficient -- Most garage doors are made out of metal, and metal holds onto whatever temperature air it’s in. With an insulated garage door, your garage doors are now covered with a foam material that reduces the amount of heat or cold your door conduct and holds onto.
