show where it is entering into the basement, not the actual starting point / issue - sometimes the mark one eyeball & knowledge is still the best option

just put in supply/ductwork/return down there so now with all the bulk I'm going to be going with a drop ceiling. Someone mentioned Vinyl tiles for the ceiling for sound proofing. I'm guessing that may be something different than the actual regular ceiling tiles so I will have to do some quick searching..

Adding material to a garage door increases the overall weight of the door and can throw off the balance of the springs. If you add weight to the door then you should also change the springs to compensate for the additional weight. I have found that the cost of buying these insulation kits and re balancing a garage door is not very cost effective. Adding foam to a hollow door will make it quieter but is not enough to make a big difference in weather sealing. A three layer insulated garage door with properly installed weather seal trim and a good fit to the floor is the best way to keep out the cold and hot weather in your garage.

your local professional remodeling association. NARI and NAHB have chapters by most all of the large cities. I'm partial to NARI only because of my involvement. Here is the link to the St Louis chapter (http://www.narigreaterstlouis.roundtablelive.org/Default.aspx?pageId=1153178). Good luck

as well as the bottom. It wasjust not sealed well. The track was rivited to the brackets instead of bolts,so I drilled out the rivits and moved it closer to the wall. It seems to besealing better now.
