        "text": "Drywall on shared walls and ceilings between an attached garage and home living spaces acts as a vital fire-separation barrier. In communities across the Denver metro area, including Aurora, Centennial, and Parker, code standards typically require specialized, fire-rated drywall (such as Type X) along these separation surfaces. Punctures, unsealed seams, or missing panels compromise this protective barrier, allowing fumes, carbon monoxide, and potential fire spread into the home. Repairing these breaches with correct fire-rated materials and properly taped joints is essential to maintain structural protection and safety compliance.",
