It's time to start insulating our van! For our van insulation we're using a combination of Thermafleece SupaSoft and Xtratherm PIR boards (which is the same as Celotex and Kingspan).

We spent some time researching the most efficient camper van insulation, so it stays cool in Summer and warm in Winter. It's a bit of a minefield with so many choices out there!

We decided to go with Xtratherm PIR for the large cavities in the van walls as well as the ceiling, and the Thermafleece SupaSoft for the smaller areas. The SupaSoft was really nice to work with, like a nice fluffy duvet! It did take a while to cut though... but nothing compared to how long it took to shape the pieces of foam board for the random shapes in the van! We definitely underestimated how much of an involved job that would be (how hard is it to cut a few square (ha!) bits of foam!?).

Thanks for watching! What insulation did you use in your van? Let us know below!
