[@Jillian1stJohn3-9-10]

Thank you so much. So many videos recommend the cheap stuff and say it works fine, but I live where the summers and winters are both extreme. Spend the extra money and have no regrets! I need to find a Box Truck to convert half into a living space and the other half a work space.

Excellent video! Thank you. I was gonna use the white sheets. They are a pain. I will try the pink stuff this time around.

[@NotSoCrazyNinja]

A big problem with the wall insulation setup you have is the heat transfer through the metal beams directly into the interior. If you did the walls like you did the roof, the comfort level will be dramatically improved. Also, if using it in winter, don't forget to insulate the floors.

[@MTsubfly]

Absolutely! It crossed my mind, but for the money, and what I plan to use it for the extra layer didn't make sense on the walls, but the ceiling will get more sun than the sides! I bet if someone did the double layer all the way around it would be really well insulated. Approx R-10. I can tell you the ceiling on a hot day is very tolerable.

[@josephdowney4919]

Any ideas how to insulate the floor without building a second floor on top of the original and being able to pull the trailer in winter conditions that will get the bottom of the trailer wet?

[@NotSoCrazyNinja]

@@josephdowney4919 I've seen people use foam sprayed from the underside. I don't personally know of a good way other than an insulated floor on top of the floor. Would be helpful to find a trailer with extra height unless you happen to be pretty short. I seem to be right at the level where if I want to properly insulate, I need a trailer with more height than the standard/common.

[@MTsubfly]

@@josephdowney4919 I've been considering insulating my floor, what my plan is that I would use 2" pink xps board between the steel supports. You just need to find a way to secure it. Creativity at it best. I will say we have dipped into the mid teens at night and liquid bottles inside are not freezing. So this further proves my ceiling/walls are well insulated

[@scottgorman7166]

@@MTsubfly take a look at T&G Homosote. Its a fiber board like card board much better water resistance and a vapor barrier. Its used in the home building industry for sub flooring. Also we used to use 1/2 and cover it with material or padded material for wall treatments in model rooms for advertising You can use it instead of the ply on the walls over the foam insulation. Light weight and easy to work with. Glue it screw it what ever you want

Very good tutorial. Thank you and Best Wishes.E.

[@chuckparson6712]

Tropi cool roof coating is supposed to make a big difference on the metal roof too. I'm going to put some on my cargo conversion trailer this summer

[@squirrel1179]

Look at aerogel insulation specifically space Loft it is 10.3 R-value per inch. It is expensive, but when I to get around to insulating my enclosed trailer that's what I'm going to use. If your patient you can pick some up cheaper off of eBay, scraps and surplus from industrial jobs.

[@dalephillips8250]

Good Job.....I will try to do one of these also but not as large.

[@scottgorman7166]

Great video. Your ceiling idea was a perfect solution for heat and lighting depths. Did you pre-wired the lighting wire before you set the second layer of foam? Also if you cut multiple slices in the pink foam bent it and taped it into shape (foil tape) you might be able to use it on the ceiling radius. If you bonded the foam to the skin would it show outside when temperature changes. It would make it more quite though.

[@MTsubfly]

I put the ceiling up first, with minimal screws, then went to town placing & drilling holes for the lights, ran the wires on top of the vinyl ceiling boards (cant tell though)

[@sacredcowbbq1326]

Thanks! Very informative!

[@maddawgnoll]

That bubble wrap stuff is way better than you think. I have my camper wrapped in it for winter in Montana. It keeps the trailer super warm compared to not using it. Lightweight, easy to use, and works very well. I've also got it skirted in foam board.

Pipe insulation works nice on rounded corners with wires becuse its easy to cut channels for snug fit. The black pipe insulation is R6 when squished together, at least it was eight years ago

[@lonesometinman3147]

I've opted to used duct board. .the insulation board used for air ducts. Foil backed and fiberglass it won't create toxic fumes if - God forbid , a fire occurs. 1in. Provdes about 4.5 r- value. If you can make the room 1.5 in. Is about a 7.5 r value.

[@CharlesButler]

Great looking trailer! Can you tell me more about your power setup? I purchased a 7x14 trailer that has Solar but want to upgrade to 400w solar pannels, adding another 12v battery so i will have 2 and I have a 1500 w inverter.

[@MTsubfly]

Yea! Thanks for watching. Its been almost two months now since the electrical is in, and I have no regrets. First off, the only thing my power center cannot do is convert 12VDC to 110VAC. This is just like a standard RV installation. BUT! That can be fixed with a inverter. If I get time I will try to do a video on it. The heart of the power center is the Progressive Dynamics 4135 Unit. This allowed me to hook up 110V 30A shore power, install needed 110V outlets, smart charge the two deep cycle 12V batteries, and supply 12V Power when there is no shore power. Other items I installed were a radio, a voltmeter for the batteries, and a main power switch, 4 GFCI 110v Plug ins, 12v recessed lights, and an awning. Hope this helps!

[@yzksn]

TYSM! Just what i was looking for! Bought yesterday my first little 6X10 cargo trailer (Haulin, Ramp door, not a V-shape though). Planning to start an insulation work tomorrow and your video made a lot of sense to me. only one question: you said that it all goof to keep a heat out but not the cold. i want mine fully winterized. which technique is the best for it? (I definitely going to insulate the floor as well). hope to hear from you soon so i know what to use. Thanks a lot (i subscribed ;-))

[@MTsubfly]

I think you are referring to my comment on using the reflective bubble wrap insulation on its own. It will not help keep heat in side during the winter. In that instance it is considered a R1 rating. The only thing its good for it reflecting radian heat from the sun, which as described in the video requires a gap. If it was me, and I had to do it again, I would use the pink stuff all the way. I have already been through a winter running our business out of it with a propane heater inside, while it's 15 degrees outside. Also I just dealt with 111 degree heat a few days ago. I installed a small 10k BTU window AC unit. It keeps it nice and cool. Also since this video I painted the roof white with Henry Tropicool. Well worth the money...seriously. I also double insulated the ceiling 2" thick, and walls are 1" thick, all pink. couldnt be much happier.

[@alexm2866]

Great video. Can you re explain how do you create the 1 inch air gap on the walls. Ypu installed the pink board against the outer skin so would like some clarity on that

[@MTsubfly]

I didn't have an air gap. Only need an air gap if you want the foil to be most effective at blocking radiant heat. Pink stuff, no gap

[@markrinehart570]

Good information. What about a vapor barrier or moisture barrier? Should we be placing anything between the exterior wall of the trailer and the insulation, such as plastic sheeting and also should it be placed between the insulation and the interior wall?

So if you completely damaged your trailer to no repair would you consider another new trailer the same configuration? Good information on this one you explained it well

[@MTsubfly]

Yea, I like it. Double R trailers can build you anything you want, no matter how complex or basic.

[@auntielsllc5606]

What did you do with the wires for the trailer tail lights? Did you tape them to the trailer, leave a gap in the insulation or account for rubbing/wear when trailer is moving? I am in the process of insulating and uncertain about what to do with the wires. Thank you for this video and your response to my questions.

[@MTsubfly]

Tail light wiring was run underneath outside in a sheath & and through steel tubing. All other interior wiring was run around the top corners inside, and if needed- down the wall with a groove cut out of insulation. Don't worry much about rubbing & wear, but don't route wires over sharp objects, or near moisture. Hope this help

[@adamlocke85]

That silver acts as a vapor blocker. You block the cold creating moisture and it will build up on the wood. I think you should use both even with loss from r3 to r1.5... and r5 with the foam & R1from the wood panel . R7.5 is better then R5 with black mold.

[@365rar]

I like the flooring, is that vinyl plank click? If you don't mind would you share manf and model#? Thanks for sharing

[@MTsubfly]

It's Fiberglass reinforced vinyl sheet from Lowes. Made by Mohawk, Model: Providence. Glue it down to good plywood. I was too concerned about click type flooring popping apart and getting gaps to to natural flexing of a trailer. I hope this lasts a while! Maybe I should do a quick video on flooring...

Any suggestions on where to get a cargo trailer? Do you recommend buying used?? Thx for posting..good info!! Hope your business is doing well!!! 👍🏼🤓

[@MTsubfly]

Depends on your region. In Oregon, trailers seem to be scarce, low inventory on lots. Used trailers can be found, sometimes poorly cared for or abused by a contractor. Find what's right for you. If you want new, I suggest Double R Trailers in Nampa, ID. It's a small family business, with craftsmen builders. They will build you what you want, as simple or complex. They built our trailer, then I did flooring, walls, insulation, and electrical. Some key things they did for me was swinging doors on the back (they are usually ramps) and 7ft 6in interior height. Browse the photos on their facebook page, its pretty cool what they have built!

How did you attach the foam board to the ceiling? So much vibration going down the road. I’m am trying to do the tack room in a horse trailer. FYI trailer is steel. Normally pretty cool in summer. Just really cold in the winter. Thanks in advance.

[@MTsubfly]

I cut them accurately enough that they just squeeze right in and stay there, if its a bit small you can cut a sliver of insulation and pack it in there to hold it. I used very little tape, tape was mostly for wiring. Then the panels went back up, which holds them of course. I don't recommend glue because a trailer flexes a lot, not just from moving and weight, but heating and cooling too, its good for it to have a little room to move, but cut accurately. If you don't have paneling, you can get it at home depot, I bought some about 1/8" thick 4x8 sheet for like $16, use self tapping screws to put it up, mark where your studs are first.

[@MTsubfly]

Now if you have bucoo bucks, look at aviation foil foam for exterior skin adhesion (obviously inside) 1/4 to 3/8 self sticking to underside of roof skin, then use the pink.....sound proof it and with the pink foam added really works wonders

[@davidsage837]

Thx for the great info! Have you taken the temperature inside during your 90+ degree days since your insulation install? I'm thinking of buying this XPS foam for my FedEx truck project; I live in Puerto Rico where it is hot and humid for half the year... 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@MTsubfly]

Yes! Our Climate is hot for 3 months, and cold the rest of the year, but lots of sun. I can say before putting in the insulation, I measured the inside skin surface at 154F in the sun, it got hot in there fast, and radiated heat off the walls, you could feel it on your skin. Now that everything is in, wall panels too, I am pretty happy. We had a few weeks in the upper 90's, and when I first opened it up after sitting a few hours in the sun in the morning it was still cool inside (about 65-70), but if I keep it closed all day then the heat makes its way inside, and it can get uncomfortable in the afternoon, but thats closed up. Since I am using it for a store, I plan to have the doors open, and when it is open, it remains comfortable. Hope this helps, but I am pretty happy with it, I'm especially glad I did the second layer on the ceiling.

[@terrybrown5883]

I was at Home Depot and was 150 and 250 in Pink foam Do you know what the Difference is

[@MTsubfly]

Hey Terry, I believe the difference is the density/compressive strength. 150 is 15 PSI and 250 is 25 PSI compressive strength. For a trailer I would lean to the 250. Definitely compare R-values though if they are the same thickness. The higher the R-Value, the better insulating ability of the product. Cheers

[@BurnProcessMedia]

What brand of trailer is it? Are you pleased with the quality?

[@MTsubfly]

Double R Trailers in Nampa ID. They can build you anything you want, check out their facebook page. I think the quality is pretty high, definitely better than a "run of the mill" trailer like cargo mate. My trailer was built fast, they were kind enough to squeeze it in, but I have a few "fit & finish" things I wish they would have done better. Overall though you get a nicer trailer than a assembly line fast factory built.

1 inch. That's how thick the walls are. The back doors are 1.5 inch thick, so I did a 1" pink plus .5" Styrofoam. The ceiling I did to layers of 1" thick pink stuff (2" total). It really helps being the sun beats down on the roof all day.
