New Product – the EcoPro Garage Door Insulation Kit

Garage Door insulation is a crucial aspect of maintaining energy efficiency, this is why we’ve created the EcoPro Garage Door Insulation Kit. Many homeowners overlook the significance of insulating their garage doors, but the truth is that an uninsulated garage door can lead to a significant amount of heat loss or gain, depending on the season.

During the winter months, a poorly insulated garage door can allow cold air to seep into your home, making it more challenging to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature. On the other hand, in the summer, it can allow hot air to infiltrate your garage and transfer into your living space.

By insulating your garage door, you create a thermal barrier that helps regulate the temperature inside your garage and, consequently, your entire home. With proper insulation, you can reduce energy consumption, lower utility bills, and enhance overall comfort.

What is the EcoPro Garage Door Insulation Kit?

Here at Ecohome Insulation, we have created an easy-to-install garage door insulation kit. There are two sizes available a single garage door or a double garage door. This kit includes a Highly Reflective Multifoil Insulation which consists of 6 layers of foil and wadding. These layers are around 15mm thick and are equivalent to around 100mm of Glasswool or 50mm of Rigid Board such as Kingspan or Celotex.

You’ll also find all the fixing equipment you need including Thermaseal Foil joining tape to tape and seal the perimeter and joints of the insulation, as well as Thermaseal Double Sided Tape which is used to attach the insulation to the back of the garage door.

Energy Saving Tips for a More Efficient Garage

Upgrade Lighting – Replace traditional incandescent bulbs with energy-efficient LED lighting in your garage. LEDs consume less energy and last longer, reducing your electricity usage and maintenance costs.

Seal Air Leaks – Check for gaps or cracks around windows or skylights in your garage and seal them with weatherstripping or caulking. This prevents draughts and air leakage, improving energy efficiency.

Insulate Garage Walls – If your garage is attached to your home, consider insulating the walls to further enhance energy efficiency. This helps maintain a consistent temperature and prevents heat transfer between your garage and living spaces.

Control Humidity – Installing a dehumidifier in your garage to reduce moisture levels. Excess humidity can lead to condensation, mold growth, and damage to stored items.

Upgrade Garage Windows – If your garage has windows, ensure they are energy-efficient. Consider replacing single-pane windows with double-pane windows that offer better insulation and reduce heat transfer.

However, you could use the EcoPro Garage Insulation kit which acts as a vapour control layer as well as a thermal insulating blanket. This will help combat two of the factors pointed out above. This kit works well alongside the Garage Door Insulation Kit.

Conclusion
