        "text": "In the Denver metro area, winter cold snaps require supplemental heat and air management to ensure drywall compound cures properly. Joint compound requires ambient temperatures of at least 50 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit to dry evenly without cracking, peeling, or freezing. Aurora and Denver area contractors working during winter months often use portable space heaters and regulate garage ventilation during mudding and sanding stages. Proper drying between coats prevents soft spots, shrinkage, and tape separation on both garage ceilings and exterior walls.",

        "description": "Yes, but temporary heating is necessary to keep garage temperatures above 50 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit so joint compound dries thoroughly without cracking."
