If You’re Heating Your Attic and Garage, Here’s What to Know

Proper insulation is an important part of controlling your home’s temperature. While you may have the main areas of your home properly insulated, it’s important to not overlook areas in the home where you may not spend as much time, such as the attic and your garage. Attic and garage heating offers benefits in not only comfort but home-energy efficiency.

Attic and Garage Heating: Concerning Your Attic

In some cases, a badly insulated attic can cause heat loss as high as 25%, which causes your HVAC system to run longer and harder to keep your home properly heated. Proper insulation helps keep your attic warm, protecting it from the cold and also putting less stress on your AC. Adding an attic heating system can also help reduce the workload of keeping your home’s temperature consistent during the colder parts of the year.

Attic and Garage Heating: Concerning Your Garage

Your garage is also an area of your home where cold air can easily seep in. Without proper insulation, your garage is easily one of the most energy-inefficient parts of your home. A metal garage door will easily let the heat out without proper insulation. You’ve likely noticed how cold or hot your garage gets during the coldest and hottest parts of the year. Proper garage insulation is the first step in reducing energy inefficiency. However, much like your attic, your garage can also benefit from being heated, which helps keep your HVAC system from having to run longer to warm your entire home.
