My next approach will be with foam strips round the front of the fridge and knife drawer.



Gordon: we've had to take the foam strip route in two of our former vans. I cut strips out of pipe insulating tubes rather than using strips of foam from a sheet, and found these stayed in place more easily and were better at resisting compression and degradation.

If you have problems with down-draughts from the hab area windows then a length of the same pipe insulation, cut in half lengthways, is easy to wedge at the base of the blinds, between the wall and the bottom of the blind. These proved very effective in our old vans.

Our Van is of the four season variety with internal tanks and exeptional insulation. However we still get heat loss.
Items to check:- External Silver Screen
Door insulation (fill with polystyrene or similar)
Close all dashboard vents
Remember you cannot or should not try to hermetically seal the van some ventilation is essential. Your roof lights (loo and lounge) will always allow a little fresh air circulation.
