How to INSULATE Your Van Conversion - The Right Way

If you found this video enjoyable, let me know by hitting that like button! I have no affiliation with any of these companies, and everything I'm using I paid for myself. The three ways that heat transfer occurs are: Conduction - Objects in direct contact Convection - Gases and Liquids in motion Radiation - Electromagnetic waves All of our insulation choices then need to address one or more of the above. Also, a key issue within van insulation is the presence of moisture through condensation. While a vapor barrier solves this issue within residential applications, it fails in vehicle applications due to tighter physical constraints and the inability to create a perfectly airtight space. So my insulation strategy accepts that we need to manage moisture and use materials that resist or inhibit bacteria and mold growth. We also want to insulate for sound as much as possible to help ensure a good night’s sleep in a busy parking lot.
