Hi group:
I have a storage area in a bedroom over our garage. The area has soffits to allow the area to breathe. My question started when I visited the home and garden show this past weekend. A couple of spray foam insulation guyes said that I could close off the soffits and spray some foam insulation in there for a lot better weather proofing. Of course, I cannot help but wonder if it is safe to cut off the breathing in the storage area. If it can be done, is it safe, and could it be done with batts of fiberglass insulation and sheetrock, or do I have to use spray foam insulation, then sheet rock over it. If it is safe and can be done, then I would have done it a long time ago because the air leakage from the bedroom to the storage area is terrible, and is changing the room in the bedroom by at least a couple of degrees
Thanks, RB
