In this video we take you through a detailed look at how we installed our subfloor battening and insulation, some of the challenges we came across and how we created a vapour barrier across the entire floor.
We used 25mm x 38mm roofing battens for the frame and 25mm PIR insulation board in between. Where there were difficult gaps we used plastic bottle insulation from B&Q. I'd recommend using the 100mm foil tape as you only need one piece per batten. Also don't forget to consider how your vapour barrier will continue up the walls.
In Part 2 we will cut and install the plywood subfloor....

WHO ARE WE?
We're Mark and Neil and this is Our Van Plan. We've always wanted a camper van and took the plunge in 2020 by ordering a brand new medium wheelbase (L2H2) Fiat Ducato. We are converting it ourselves into the van of our dreams with little previous experience. We're glad to have you along for the ride!
