Van Insulation: Keep Your Van Comfortable All Year Round

Proper insulation is one of the most important upgrades you can make in your van. It helps regulate temperature, reduce noise, and improve energy efficiency, making your van more comfortable to live in or work from. Whether you're converting a van into a camper or simply want to improve the interior comfort of your vehicle, our van insulation options are designed to meet your needs.

Benefits of Van Insulation

Temperature Control: Insulation helps maintain a comfortable interior temperature, regardless of the weather outside. It keeps your van cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Soundproofing: Insulation materials help reduce road noise, creating a quieter, more peaceful interior. This is especially important for long drives or van life living.

Energy Efficiency: Insulation helps reduce the need for excessive heating or cooling, which can help improve your vehicle’s overall energy efficiency.

Condensation Prevention: Insulation helps reduce moisture buildup inside the van, preventing mold, mildew, and rust.

Comfortable Living: Whether you’re converting your van into a camper or using it for work, insulation increases comfort by moderating the interior environment.

Choosing the Right Insulation for Your Van

For Maximum Thermal Efficiency: Foam board or spray foam is ideal for superior temperature control.

For Eco-Friendliness: Sheep’s wool or cotton insulation provides natural, sustainable options without compromising on performance.

For Easy Installation: Reflective foil and foam board are easy to cut and install yourself, making them great options for DIY van conversions.

For Soundproofing: Spray foam and sheep’s wool are particularly effective at minimizing road noise and creating a quieter environment inside your van.

Installation Guide

Preparation: Start by cleaning and prepping the van’s surfaces to ensure the insulation will stick properly and fit securely.

Measure and Cut: Measure the areas to be insulated, such as the walls, ceiling, and floor. Cut the insulation material to fit these areas snugly.

Apply Insulation: For foam board, cut to size and install using adhesive or fasteners. For spray foam, apply evenly to fill all gaps and crevices. Reflective foil and cotton insulation can be stapled or glued in place.

Seal Gaps: Ensure all seams and gaps are sealed to prevent air leaks and maximize the insulation’s effectiveness.

Finish with a Surface Layer: After installing insulation, you may want to add a surface layer (like plywood or wall panels) for a professional finish.
