Some people have said that, by insulating the garage door, they have been able to lower the garage temperature by as much as 20 degrees. Heat transfer just doesn't work that way.
OK, I don’t disagree but you did say it was a waste of money to insult. So not criticizing you but what is a cheaper way to do it than insulting? All I’m saying is it does help. I insulted my metal garage doors & it did help some. I’m open for suggestions to do my garage doors cheaper than insulting. This is the only thing out there they offer for garage doors.
