Finished the lining thank god, my jogsaw stopped on the last cut, typical, I will post some pics as it may help someone else. have to protectacote in the morning  thats going to be fun

[EasycleanWindows]

why are you ply lining and protectacoating ?

you only need to protectacoat it  straight onto the inside floor...you plyline and dont completly cover the ply with protctorcoat you will have water underneath then youve spent time and money on both and its been a lost cause as the waters gone underneath rotting the meatal away?

i think he is ply lining the sides of the van not the floor

what about the sides??? I used 100mil fiber for sides overkill maybe, but if I get kicked out by the wife I will be all cosy

filled all gaps in sides with loft insulation then ply lined over that it filled all gaps,

hopefully this winter i shud not b gettin up to frozen van

i usually put a heater in any way,

gona hang a fish tank heater in the tank this year to c if it helps the water from freezing,

but dnt think it will 2 be honest

fish tank heater sounds like a good idea, will ask my dad about that as he owns a few shops that cater for aquariums etc

Can't see any way of freezing 500ltr of water unless we are entering an ice age!
More chance of freezing on the pole first or maybe in the pump overnight. If it's that cold you wouldn't be going out. When your car washer jets freeze it's always in the smallest areas and not the tank ie the nozzles or the pipe.
