A motorhome is not only a great way to explore the world in summer - it also offers freedom and independence in winter. But while cool summer nights are often pleasant, the cold can quickly become a challenge in winter. To ensure that you can enjoy warm and relaxing days in your mobile home even in the cold season, we have put together the best tips to combat the cold in your motorhome.

Tips against the cold in your HYMER vehicle: So it stays warm even in winter!

1. insulate correctly

The right vehicle insulation for winter camping can help you keep the heat inside your vehicle.

HYMER Original Accessories offers a wide range of insulating mats for windscreens, pop-top roof insulation for HYMER Camper Vans and thermal insulation for the rear of your Camper Van to help you insulate your vehicle appropriately.

A carpet can also help to insulate the floor and keep out the cold, as well as giving you a pleasant walking sensation.

Use curtains, blinds or similar on windows and roof hatches to minimise heat loss.

With a electric blanket you can ensure that your bed is at the right temperature for a comfortable night's sleep. 

2. heating in the vehicle

Heater

Choosing the right heater for your travelling preferences is particularly important for winter camping adventures. Depending on the type of heater, make sure you have enough gas, diesel or other necessary fuels with you. For electric heating systems, make sure that the Camping ground has a sufficient power supply.

Regardless of your choice of heater, please follow the instructions in the operating instructions. Do not block any air outlets and do not use the space behind the heater as a storage compartment.

Please note: Do not operate catalytic ovens and infrared gas radiators inside the vehicle, as they extract oxygen from the interior for combustion.

Ventilate regularly - even in winter

Regular ventilation is also important in winter, as it allows you to effectively regulate the humidity inside. It prevents condensation forming inside the vehicle and supports good air quality in the vehicle.

Summary: Well prepared for the winter cold in your HYMER vehicle

With the right equipment and a few clever tricks, you can easily cope with the cold in your motorhome. Good insulation and efficient heating are the key to staying cosy in winter temperatures.
