Should I buy an insulated garage door?

The majority of the garages are not heated, but your overhead door still impacts the energy efficiency of your home. Construction material & insulation technologies for garage doors have enhanced considerably over the last few years. Today’s garage door offers a tighter seal against the face to keep the elements out.

If your garage is attached to the home, your best option is to buy an insulated garage door, particularly if there is an occupied room above the garage. It’ll help decrease both noise & the utility bills.

Also, take into account the direction your garage door faces. If it is sweltering in the sun all day long or getting blasted by the wind, an insulated garage door will better control the temperature inside.
