Garage Insulation Toronto, Oakville, Mississauga
At FoamIt, we have been providing garage insulation in Toronto, Oakville, Mississauga for many years. We know that as soon as it get cold in the winter and masses feel the cold floors on their sensitive feet and they realize that there is definitely insufficient insulation in there garage ceiling.
First we should remember that whatever insulation was put in the garage is air permeable , which means it only retains 30% of the heat loss.
Second, there are always ducts running through the garage. As soon as a heated duct makes contact with the cold air, we get condensation and the warm air in the ducts gets cold, the air is so cold that it stops warming the room.
The condensation can quickly semi-saturate the insulation , even small amounts of moisture can cause a reduction in the fiber insulation’s R-value , as much as 50%.
If not properly ventilated this can lead to mold, and mold makes people sick.
