I'm in the process of replacing my old Onan generator with a Generac Primepact 50. As the Hondas are NLA, it seems like a rational choice and was nicely priced. I would like to get rid of the old, falling fiberglass insulation that is currently lining the compartment. What is the reccommended lining material for the compartment? I've seen pictures of what I think is the foil faced rigid fiberglass insulation, but wanted to be sure before I start buying something that won't work.
Also, I think that the compartment is lined in an aluminum box (my coach is a 75 Palm Beach if that makes any difference), but I'm not sure as the insulation is still in place. The Generac installation manual states you should have a sheet steel lining, not aluminum. Has anyone has experience with this?
ps. Removing the old Onan is a very messy job when it has 35 years of oil and mud on it!
