Product Information

Use a special formulation closed cell foam with excellent thermal and acoustic properties. Ideal to reduce noise, insulate the vehicle and to isolate barriers and trim panels. Here I’ll explain which insulation I used for each part of my campervan, mission, to keep ‘Dennis’ lovely and warm 🙂 Campervan Sound Deadening

For all the tools I’m using for this van conversion you can see the full list here. What tools do you need for sound deadening and insulating your van? Recommended products for this stage: 1-2 Dodo Thermo Liner rolls or 2-3 Dodo Thermo Liner Pro rolls.For the stage 2 product we recommend having a measure up to determine the correct amount needed. We suggest applying this like a blanket, covering 100% of the main panels. Quantity will vary most for this layer depending on van windows, pop-tops etc. There’s an abundance of information about the best insulation for campervans out there, so a lot of my choices were based researching what was right for me, based on my skill level for fitting and also my budget available.

For the ceiling insulation I used the Dodo Mat thermal liner,I used a tape measureto work out the size I needed for each panel and cut this with my heavy duty scissors. The van has a metal divider in the middle so the strips were roughly 1.25 metres long by 40 cm wide so an easy size to work withHow Much Does A Campervan Conversion Cost? (Vauxhall Vivaro Mk3 LWB) How much did the sound deadening cost?

When treating a typical van or camper you must use a number of different products to achieve an excellent final result. Many camper van projects start life with very limited luxury, however the interior can be improved dramatically with the application of good sound deadening and insulation. I’ll break down my insulation into the three main areas I fitted it to – the side panels and doors, the floor and the ceiling. Ceiling insulation The low profile nature means that panels will refit easily and cables and ducting can still be routed through side and roof panels. Where possible, I tried to use full pieces of thermal liner for the panels, which was fine for the upper (nicely shaped panels) but this became completely impossible for the lower door panels and lower side panels. In these instance, I measured out the shape with a tape measure but often ended up cutting the piece in half or thirds to be able to manoeuvre it into place.This self-adhesive, high-quality liner can maintain shape under pressure yet be flexible enough to trim easily in many areas of the vehicle. It is water and high-temperature resistant and flame-retardant to UK vehicle standards.

Before I fitted my sound deadening and insulation I opted to have two windows fitted by a professional to my van, I’m glad I did these before the insulation as metal filings can get everywhere and although Sarah did a fab job of cleaning up afterwards it was made more sense to do it this way round. You can see my windows being fitted in my last post on removing the panels and bulkhead (scroll to the bottom to see the windows going in). Here is what I used to insulate my van walls, floor and ceiling. I’ll do a breakdown of what I used for each part of the van but here’s the overall list. As soon as I removed all my plywood panels and the bulkhead the noise of the van during normal driving was apparent, all those speed bumps or potholes caused even more noise and rattling of the metal, that was noisy even with the music on.

Until I started my van conversion I didn’t even know sound deadening was a thing, call me naive but this is my first van conversion and it’s never come up in general conversation before.
