It seems the more I fix, the more I realize needs fixing.
While I was gluing and screwing the board from the outside(see pictures above), I realized the 110v compartment has no wooden backing along the side. Basically you have a clear line of sight from the outside to the inside of my trailer when the compartment door is open. I will spend the rest of my day trying to insulate the side above the cable.. This would be a huge weak link for snow to get in! It looked like it was framed out properly, it's just someone forgot to put the side board on.
Yep.. when I reach my hand around I can feel the stove, wires, plumbing etc. They are all directly exposed to the elements every time I'll be hooked up to power. In Canada that's a big deal when you're trying to camp in the spring/fall. Snow can easily make its way through there!
I'll take pictures of how I'm transforming this trailer into a true 4 season unit during this whole fix-up (or at least a Canadian 3 season!). I have noticed potential cold spots in many places ,including a big half inch hole cored out of the foam block just to run 2 small wires to the outside light! I'll be spray foaming that.)
