Good point. Has anyone done blown insulation in their rig?
Blown in insulation can settle on its own, I can't imagine where it would end up as the rig is bouncing down the road.

We did our pantry and all the cabinets on the kitchen side. Definitely makes a difference...
Is it producing any cash savings? If you pay your own utilities it may . But most of us don't have a utility bill - routemasterExplorerWhen CW welded the frame under the chin,so when the cap was off,I went to HD and bought the pink stuff and added extra strips.Thats is when I thought could we blow stuff in I would think one would have calulate the area to be filled yes?. Also pumped foam in the can all around the hich were it goes into the cap.
One of the other thing I did was bought the sheets of white insulation and lined the basement ceiling.Another thing buy the pipe wrap for the hot and cold Plex pips in the belly (I had to drop the belly to change gate valve anyway) and basement behind the walls.Saves heat loss at the shower i could push it up behind the wall to the taps. - sarahmExplorerGood point.

Is there anything in the end cap? I was thinking of blowing in insulation.
I thought about that, too, but then thought, where would the air exhaust? Might come out in the rest of the rig, given how tight (not) they build these things. Be a bit of a mess... :B

- routemasterExplorerHows about blowing insulation though speaker hols?
- aruba5erExplorerdid my rv with refelx ? bubble alum foil and really feel I made a differance. did it in yuma az all the cabinets and the windows in the bedroom. Because of a water leak I had to remove the front cap and SURPRISE' NO, NONE, NADDA insulation between the cap and inside wall. Got plenty in there now. Now if I could just figure how to do the ceiling. There isn't enough to spit at in the ceiling.
