Installation Instructions

How to Install Garage Door Insulation

  1. Cut Heat Wave Pro to size using scissors, a utility knife (have extra blades), or score with with a utility knife and then use an electric fabric cutter. Use a 48” T-square to get straight cuts.
    • The goal is to cover 100% of each garage door panel without impacting the door’s ability to open and close. Heat Wave Pro should be “tucked in” at the edge of each garage door panel.
    • You should be able to do (3) garage door panels per (1) sheet of Heat Wave Pro.
  2. Clean the garage door to create a good substrate for adhesion. Brush off interior surface to remove dirt, dust, debris, and cobwebs. Scrub surface with gentle soap solution. Use a clean, wet cloth to wipe away suds, and then use a clean dry cloth to dry the surface.
  3. Apply Heat Wave Pro using our High Temp Contact Spray Adhesive. Apply to both the garage door and the Heat Wave Pro at 80-100% coverage. Give it 1-2 minutes to tack up. Then hold firmly to garage door to bond.
  4. Use foil tape to tape seams and perimeter. You should not have seams between Heat Wave Pro due to size of garage door panels, so just do the perimeter.
