Keeps the Garage cooler in the summer,

This review is from: Reflectix BP24050 24-Inch-by-50-Foot Bubble Pack Insulation (Tools & Home Improvement)
I live in Arizona and saw this product featured during a This Old House episode. The product is very easy to install, and minimizes the heat radiating off the garage door during the day. The insulation also keeps the garage warmer in the winter. Overall, this is a great product. Use double sided carpet tape for garage door installation. A little tape goes a long way.

This review is from: Reflectix BP24050 24-Inch-by-50-Foot Bubble Pack Insulation (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought this to insulate my garage and reduce heating costs. My garage is directly below my kids' bedrooms and I my electric bill suffered from trying to keep those rooms warm in the winter. I installed the Reflectix Bubble Pack Insulation (and started using a space heater in my garage) and in one month my electric bill was reduced by about $50.
The width of the roll was perfect to fit in the sections of my garage door. I just needed to cut the appropriate length for each section. I used a spray adhesive to affix it and completed two doors in less than an hour. As a bonus, this purchase earned me a tax credit for 2009. The certificate is available on the Reflectix website.

This review is from: Reflectix BP24050 24-Inch-by-50-Foot Bubble Pack Insulation (Tools & Home Improvement)
So like others, I had this idea to insulate the garage doors with this product. It's really easy.
The first thing upon receiving the order was that it was going to be too wide of a strip for the garage door. Like most garage doors I've seen in the past few weeks, however, it's the perfect size. The reason is that my garage door also has a curved pocket on the top and bottom. It's probably about 18-20" of door, and another 4-6" extra that will fit into the U like pocket at the top and the bottom. This allowed me to push the material in and keep it taut so that it won't fall out. So, this is the perfect width of product, you just need to cut the length of the product to the width of your garage door panels. Like others, I did use double sided carpet tape, although I did so because everyone else did. I don't think that is really necessary, if you have the U shaped pockets at the edges. There's no way it moves and so it did very little. The garage door now moves a bit slower, not much -- it's really not that heavy --- probably adds 20 lbs to the garage door. Also most garage doors have an adjustment to deal with tension. I haven't run into that yet. The material gives me an R3 on the garage door, according to the package. Alumninum R value according to one website is less than 1. Walls are R15/R19ish. So, R3 is better, but not much, but I think it's better quality will be keeping out radiant heat (not measured by R value) -- which is more summer-like when the sun is baking the garage door. At least that's what neighbors have seen using similar products. Our garages face the sun in Texas. Lastly, as for quantity, it took about 1.75 packages of this to cover a double garage door.
