Heated or not, it's not considered a "living" or "habitable" space (according to the UBC) and therefore, does not require insulation in the attic or walls.

I have heard the wise ones speak of cold air, and warm mosit air, I just thought it was a myth.
Not many insulated garages here either. I had a HI come behind me and call out lack of insulation over the covered Patio that was in an area under the roof. Now why would you insulate a patio cover????? |
