Turn Your Freezing Garage into a Year-Round Workshop
An uninsulated garage is subject to extreme temperature swings, making it uncomfortable for DIY projects and potentially damaging to stored items or vehicles. Insulating the space is a straightforward project that yields immediate results.
Insulating Garage Walls
For exposed stud walls, ROCKWOOL Comfortbatt® is the ideal choice. It cuts easily with a serrated knife and friction-fits snugly between the studs, providing excellent thermal resistance.
The Garage Ceiling
If there is a living space above the garage, insulating the ceiling is critical for both thermal control and fire safety. Building codes often require a fire barrier here. Using a non-combustible stone wool product like ROCKWOOL Safe'n'Sound® not only blocks the noise of power tools and garage door openers from reaching the rooms above but also provides a vital fire-resistant layer.
