In 2015 I removed all original insulation from the ceiling of my 26' to
replace it with more modern stuff. Some photos on the photo site show details.

Today, we found out what a difference the old and the new bring. While the ceiling is only slightly warm, the driver side next to the bunk beds is very warm. I'd say at least 5-10Kelvin difference. This means for me:
The 23' will receive a full insulation ceiling and walls.

Peer,

Nothing in the above statement is in error.
What is confusing to some it the difference between one degree Kelvin and one Kelvin degree.
One of these is a sensible (measurable) temperature and the other is a variation in the sensed temperature.

I used to have this discussion with lab techs all the time.
