I used Havelock wool and it made a big difference with my insulation. I was going to use foam on the floor but it turned out I had ordered enough to do my floors. Hence I have wool in the walls ceiling and floor. I'm warm as toast in the winter and cool as a cucumber in the winter.

I'd like to see the finished product I must say you've done an excellent job. I've converted race trailers in the past. We live in northern Indiana in the RV industry world. If you are needing parts of any type look up Johnson surplus on a white pigeon Michigan you can buy online and they will ship. They purchase overstock from the RV industry all brand new stuff once in a while they'll have some used parts. Everybody around here is their go-to place for RV parts. Very reasonably priced and great service. Once again I love the way you did your insulation and wiring.

Unfortunately those aluminum studs are not going to help with keeping the heat inside. They will act as thermal bridges to the outside. The good thing is you are limiting their physical contact to the inside with wooden strips and then presumably some paneling of some sort. Soft wood has an R value of about 1.4 per inch. So at every point where the the paneling makes contact with the wood strip and aluminum stud you will be lucky to have an R value of about 1. You can calculate interior surface area and the percentage of those points averaged with the good R value areas to find its overall impact. Probably not a huge impact, just not ideal. Would of been a problem without wood strips and paneling directly attached to the aluminum. None the less, great job on insulating the trailer as there will always be areas of thermal loss such as the windows, doors and vents.

What do you think about using sound deadner
@battlebob7241 Жыл бұрын
@@nauidiver227 - If by sound deadner, you mean mineral wool, then yes, that is pretty decent insulation. I know some manufacturers make 2 versions of mineral wool bats. One for thermal insulation and one for sound insulation. They are pretty similar but I believe the R value is a little lower for the sound variant.

Excellent videos - thanks. I am in Yuma, Arizona, visiting from Canada for the winter with my 38 ft fifth wheel. A local shop just destroyed the frame of the trailer with an incompetent repair, and I will be taking my $40,000 investment and only home to the dump this week. Nobody else wants to try to fix the damage he caused, and it will never get me home again. Suddenly I am going to find myself building my own RV...using a new 16x7 ft cargo trailer. I am still in shock at the turn of events. So I am devouring conversion videos and shopping for a cargo trailer. Fantastic progress you two made in just a few days of work.

Looking to do a similar approach for my car trailer. Making it more comfortable for my dog in the summer. I run a 7200BTU AC unit that helps, but struggles to really cool since the heat just comes right through the panels. Assuming you did the same setup under the rear ramp?

Where are you from? Abviously if you are from Indiana you know Elkhart county and LaGrange county are the rv capital of the world. There are overstock and resale businesses all over this area for what you need, windows, cabinets, etc.

I certain the Aluminum studded trailer will prove very sturdy and lighter in weight to tow, however; each one of those Aluminum studs are going to act as heat sinks o ducting interior heat to the outside trailer skin . Personally I would not have permitted the foam insulation to come into direct contact with the exterior skin for the same reason. Also 2x studded walls would have allowed a larger cavity for additional insulation. With 1-1/2"" wood studded walls I would have utilized 1" of rigid foil faced insulation in the walls with the foil facing inward and a 1/2" airspace between the insulation and the outter metal skin. Same method in the ceiling, 1-1/2" foam, foil facing inwardwith a 1/2" inch air gap toward the outside.. With 7 foot ceilings I'd have 2" inches of riigid foam in the floor spaced the same manner as the walls & ceiling. I'd also ventilate the 1/2" air spacings to the outside.
