How to Insulate your Floor on a Budget - Episode 7 of the Van Build Series
Fitting the new timber battens and insulation to the floor of our Fiat Ducato Budget Campervan Build. Finishing it with a foil vapour barrier to prevent condensation from forming under the floor. We are using locally sourced timber roofing battens, fixed to the floor using Sikalfex 522 adhesive to form a grid that will support the new plywood floor and the campervan furniture above. PIR rigid insulation boards are cut and inserted between the timber battens to provide the best thermal insulation layer to the floor. Then finally aluminium foil tape is fitted over all the battens and onto the PIR boards to complete the vapour barrier. This is now ready for the new Plywood Floor. Materials we have used are as follows :- Sikaflex 522 Adhesive https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_fr... 25mm PIR foam rigid insulation boards https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_fr... 100mm Aluminium Foil Tape https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1612415391...
