Buy a Winter-proof Class A, use as office
Hi, I am doing preliminary search to buy a Class A Motorhome to use as an office on business trips. Since I live in Canada, winter proofing is mandatory. Does anyone knows good dealers I can talk...

Ragtijnet1, somehow I missed your Prevost post.
On our Monaco Dynasty, the slide was not made like the sides of the coach. I had to removed a small window in the driver's side slide to fix a water leak. The material was a solid composite material. It was not a foam insulation that I could tell.

When I installed an external vent for our microwave, I had to cut through the side wall. It had the same foam as the other walls. Obviously different years means different construction techniques. I know that Monaco stopped using aluminum sidewalls in 2004 and a few years later they did away with the aluminum roofs.
I also know that in some coaches, the sidewalls are insulated with fiberglass instead of foam. In any case, with the different coaches that we have owned, I've never seen a problem with a slide in the Winter. Obviously you are increasing the floor square footage/volume with a slide which means more heat will be required but to us the extra space more than offset the additional heating required.
