Reflectix Insulation
Does anyone cover their RV windows (interior) with Reflectix insulation during cold weather camping? I watched a few videos on you-tube. Only problem is determining how to hang/install. Or do you insulate them with anything else? Would love to hear from anyone that has insulated their windows. Thanks

We don't camp below the high teens anymore, but when we did I had Reflectix shades I made (also used them in the extreme heat). Cleanest way, IMO is a nice taped border and use snaps. You only need 4 to 6 for any window to keep it neatly in place. I used screws already in the window frame to mount the male side of the snap for a no-mar installation. I also used butcher's paper to make patterns of the windows to cut out for nice fit - Nikki frowned upon makeshift look mods after selling the hybrid!

I use Reflectix both in the summer and winter. In the summer it helps the ACs keep up. In the winter it seems to keep the bitter cold outside, and the heat in. We have found that a spot of double sided Nano Tape on each corner of the window frames works. For larger runs, we'll a little tape between the corners as well.
That said, I'm not liking living in a cave and am toying with the idea of framing out plexiglass storm windows for the interior.2018 Grand Design Reflection 337RLS

I use the Reflex white on one side silver on the other on some of the windows. I bought a roll wide enough cut to fit behind the cords that control the pull down shades and set on top of the screws that hold the cords.
I do not have double pain windows so I was concerned about trapping moisture between the windows and the foam panels, not sure if this should be a concern but none the less it does provide some air movement so I chose not to seal the edges. The shade holds everything in place.
Used on some of the basement doors also.2017 F-250 6.7 2019 273 MK
