[REDCART]

None of the Courtyard villas have insulation above the ceiling in the garage or in the outside walls of the garage. Only the living area has insulation. The inside wall of the garage is the only wall with insulation. Up north, we always installed a vapor barrier and then insulation. I don't recall seeing a vapor barrier. But then again we're not builders and we're certainly unfamiliar with the way things are done in Fl.

Getting back on track, all of my neighbors who have added insulation above their garages claim it significantly reduced the heat factor. Others have even installed Styrofoam panels on the back of their garage door and also claim this helped considerably.
