Your Garage Could Be Turning Into an Oven — And That Heat May Be Affecting Your Home.
When Arizona homeowners think about insulation, they usually think about their home’s attic. But there’s another area that often gets overlooked: the garage.
During Arizona’s brutal summer months, garages can become unbearably hot. The concrete absorbs heat, the garage door gets baked by the sun, and the temperature inside can climb dramatically.
What many homeowners don’t realize is that an uninsulated garage can also affect the comfort of adjoining rooms.
At Active Shield Insulation, we believe your garage deserves attention, too.
Your Garage Is More Than a Place to Park
Think about how often you use your garage. Maybe it’s where you store tools, exercise, work on projects, do laundry, or keep an extra refrigerator or freezer.
Now imagine trying to do those things when the garage feels like an oven.
Many Arizona garages were built with little or no insulation above the ceiling. Some also have completely uninsulated walls.
That leaves very little protection against extreme outdoor temperatures.
The solution may be more affordable than you think.
Insulating Your Garage Attic Can Make a Difference
One of the most effective ways to improve thermal protection in a garage is by adding blown-in fiberglass insulation above the ceiling.
At Active Shield Insulation, we install Johns Manville Climate Pro blown-in fiberglass insulation, a high-quality product designed for long-lasting thermal performance.
Proper garage attic insulation can help:
- Reduce heat transfer through the ceiling.
- Improve comfort during Arizona’s hottest months.
- Reduce temperature swings throughout the year.
- Make the garage more practical for hobbies, projects, and workouts.
- Improve thermal protection for adjoining living areas in certain home designs.
While insulation won’t turn an unconditioned garage into an air-conditioned room, it can help reduce the amount of heat entering through insulated surfaces.
Don’t Forget About Your Garage Walls
Here’s something many homeowners don’t know.
Your garage walls may have no insulation at all.
Even if your home’s attic is properly insulated, exposed garage walls can still allow substantial heat transfer.
Active Shield Insulation offers blown-in fiberglass insulation for suitable enclosed garage wall cavities.
We can drill small access holes, approximately 2.5 inches in diameter, and fill the wall cavities with fiberglass insulation.
This allows many existing garage walls to be insulated without removing large sections of drywall.
Drywall patching and finishing are not included.
What About Garages With Bedrooms Above Them?
If your home has a bedroom or other living space above the garage, insulation becomes even more important.
An inadequately insulated garage ceiling can allow heat to transfer toward the rooms above, potentially making them harder to keep comfortable.
Proper insulation, combined with appropriate air sealing, can help reduce unwanted heat transfer.
