Where does a static caravan lose heat?
Static caravans are lightly built, so heat escapes in several places at once. The windows and doors are the easiest to improve.
| Area | Typical problem | What helps |
|---|---|---|
| Windows | Single glazing, worn seals, wet glass | Replacement double glazing |
| Doors | Gaps, worn locks and seals | Replacement door |
| Floor | Cold air from underneath | Check insulation and skirting |
| Roof and walls | Thin insulation | Ask your caravan maker or a specialist |
Do windows and doors make a difference?
Yes. Customers on our reviews page describe vans that were cold and draughty becoming warmer and quieter after double glazing. Results depend on the caravan's age, construction and heating.
What else can I do to stay warm?
- Fix the draughts first. Replace worn seals, windows and doors.
- Keep the heating steady. Low constant heat beats hot bursts.
- Ventilate briefly each day. It keeps damp down and the van fresher.
- Use thick curtains. They add a layer of warmth at night.
- Check under the van. Cold air from below makes the floor chilly.
Does a warmer caravan mean I can use it all year?
Comfort and site rules are separate. Double glazing can make a caravan far more pleasant outside summer, but your park's open season and licence terms still apply, so check them with your site owner.
