How To Make Your Garage More Energy Efficient
This Summer

  • Being energy efficient is often at the forefront
    of homeowners minds nowadays, whether be it to
    keep energy bills at a minimum, or to help
    protect the environment against the effects of
    global warming. With some areas of the US seeing
    temperatures soar during the summer months, and
    with humidity levels often skyrocketing, the
    temptation can be to rely solely upon the
    benefits of air conditioning, but we all know how
    that can see your energy bills rise as high as
    the temperature outside. So, is there anything
    else that can help your home keep cool during the
    summer months?

  • Pay attention to your garage
  • It can be easy to think of your garage as a space
    to keep your car or other items safe in and
    neglect the fact that you might be able to use it
    to make your entire home more energy efficient.
    With the following simple and affordable tips,
    your garage could help you keep your summer
    energy bills as low as possible
  • Use LED bulbs
  • A small but significant change that while costing
    you a little more initially, will certainly save
    you bucks over the course of the year.

  • Get your garage door insulated
  • This can be done quickly and at a relatively low
    cost when you use the services of a professional
    garage door specialist and can dramatically
    reduce the temperature inside your garage. If
    your garage is directly attached to your home,
    then it stands to reason that this will also
    lower the temperature throughout your entire
    home, and result in lower energy bills.
  • Get cracks repaired
  • This is especially important if your garage is
    attached to your home and can

5
  • prevent warm exterior air from leaking into the
    garage, or cool interior air from escaping. If
    you do spot any cracks in the walls of your
    garage, its best to have them assessed and
    repaired by a professional. Once you do this, you
    could immediately see a reduction in your energy
    bills.
  • Swap to an energy-efficient garage door
  • Many of the older garage doors were made without
    any consideration for energy efficiency, and can
    allow hot air to easily penetrate them, heating
    up your garage and your home beyond your levels
    of comfort, and causing your energy bills to be
    unnecessarily high. With so many energy efficient
    garage doors available today,

6
  • homeowners are spoilt for choice, but knowing
    which one might be best for your home, is
    something that only the experts can help you
    with. So, if youre facing unbearably hot
    temperatures this summer and cant afford to pay
    the rising cost of your energy bills, it might be
    time to talk to a garage door specialist about
    the ways in which your garage and its door, can
    help keep you cool and spending less during the
    summer months.
