I insulated my topper with radiant insulation and spent Thanksgiving until Christmas in the back of my truck. I was in a campground using a 1500watt space heater. The last night I spent, it got down to 9°f (-14°f real feel) nice and toasty in the back. Love radiant insulation 🙂🙂🙂
I'm not sure about this because I've never seen it done but it seems to me if you had turned the shell upside down it would have been a little easier to stick the insulation.
Thanks for posting. Sadly, I’m selling my much loved Volvo V40 T5 Cross County here on the island of Phuket in SW Thailand….. and buying a Toyota PreRunner Space Cab…… for my 2 Golden Retrievers. I’ll be installing an Air-Conditioned Canopy with Marine Grade Insulation….. The rear window of my new truck will be removed along with the forward sliding window of the canopy. The front cab of the truck and the rear canopy will then be connected with a Teak Frame around the steal edges where the windows were. Of primary importance of this project has been how to approach the issue of insulation. I picked up on a few things you went through. Thanks.
Okay brother so I did this same as you, and it worked great for the winter but once it got hot, it all fell down and would not stick to the walls, so I gotta figure out how to do it even better
Hey man, how does the insulation feel if you put your hand on the ceiling on a hot sunny day? I ask because radiant heat reflection needs air gap. Otherwise it becomes conductive heat which passes through aluminum easily. Perhaps this product does well to reflect it with the bubbles inside?
How does the carpet glue hold up to heat and cold? I worry that when my truck is sitting in the sun on a hot day I will find all of my insulation has fallen off.
