Assembly can be used in IECC CZ 3 and above to thermally isolate garages in multifamily row houses with slab foundations. For unheated garages, it is unnecessary to insulate wall between garage and exterior of slab or slab underneath garage.
Image
Drop-in ceiling assemblies consisting of suspended ceiling tiles (common in multifamily buildings) are often insulated with fiberglass or mineral wool batt insulation.
Image
Heated or partially heated garages with podium decks should be thermally isolated from both ambient exterior space and interior conditioned space by insulating the interior of the garage walls and ceiling and extending the insulation below grade.
Image
Heated recirculation plenum spaces can be installed in parking garages in cold climates to prevent pipes from freezing and warm the floor of occupied space directly above the garage.
Image
Insulating both exterior and garage-side faces of plaza deck can reduce thermal bridging. If garage is heated or partially heated, hybrid spray foam/batt insulation on garage side of plaza deck should extend to the perimeter of the garage.
Image
Insulating the exterior and garage-side faces of the garage plaza deck can reduce thermal bridging. If the garage is heated or partially heated, the spray foam on the garage side of the plaza deck should extend to perimeter of garage.
Image
Insulating the exterior and garage-side faces of the plaza deck can reduce thermal bridging. If the garage is heated or partially heated, the faced batt insulation on the garage side of the plaza deck should extend to perimeter of garage.
Image
Plan view (from above) showing how the existing garage wall gypsum board is cut away to air-seal the shared wall before adding rigid foam insulation on the garage and exterior walls of the home.
Image
Right - Fiberglass/mineral wool insulation thermally isolates the garage from the interior occupied space above.
Image
Right - The ceiling above the garage is insulated and air-sealed with open-cell spray foam to keep garage fumes out of the living space above.
Image
Image
Right - This heated garage plenum is insulated along the bottom of the plenum space.
Image
Right - This heated garage plenum is insulated and has an opening to access the interior, allowing for repairs and maintenance.
Image
Right – Spray foam insulates the walls and ceilings separating the garage from the home.
Image
Rigid foam insulating sheathing installed over an existing garage ceiling with retrofits to air seal exterior wall before adding exterior wall insulating sheathing
Image
Rigid foam insulating sheathing is installed on existing garage ceiling and covered with a new gypsum board fire protection layer installed over the foam.
Image
Rigid foam insulation is installed on the garage side of the shared garage wall and roof of an existing home
Image
Rigid insulation and air-sealing can be used to thermally isolate garages from interior occupied space in multifamily row houses/townhouses.
Image
Rigid insulation can be used as a thermal break between a garage slab with a heated plenum space and a separately cast garage slab without a heated plenum space.
Image
Side view showing air-sealing and rigid foam insulation is installed over existing wall and ceiling under a room above, then covered with new gypsum board.
Image
Side view showing how the existing garage wall and ceiling are air-sealed prior to installing rigid foam insulation on the garage side of the shared wall of an existing home.
Image
The original corner seam is air-sealed with caulk, then rigid foam is installed on the existing garage ceiling and walls, and finally covered with drywall.
Image
Thermally isolate heated garages in multifamily buildings from ambient space, and thermally isolate all garages in multifamily buildings from interior occupied space. This parking garage is thermally isolated from space above with spray foam insulation.
Image
This assembly can be used to thermally isolate heated or partially heated garages with slab foundations from the exterior in multifamily row houses/townhouses in IECC Climate Zones 3 and higher.
Image
This assembly for above-grade and below-grade garage walls in any climate zone uses continuous rigid insulation along the interior of the wall.
Image
This assembly for above-grade or below-grade garage walls in any climate zone uses a hybrid of continuous rigid insulation and cavity insulation on the interior side of the wall.
Image
This heated garage plenum is insulated along the bottom and sides, and the insulation is fully aligned with an air barrier. The insulation at the bottom of the plenum space meets IECC insulation requirements.
Image
This heated garage plenum space is insulated along its top, bottom and sides, and the insulation at the top of the plenum meets IECC requirements. The insulation along the top and sides is fully aligned with an air barrier.
Image
This hot climate zone home uses high quality batt insulation between studs to insulate this connecting garage wall.
Image
This wall assembly for above-grade garage walls uses cavity insulation and should only be used in IECC Climate Zones 4 or lower due to the risk of condensation on the interior surface of the concrete wall.
Image
To ensure a complete air barrier between the garage and the house, the wall between the garage and the house was insulated and air-sealed with four inches of high-density spray foam.
