I have noticed the bay with the Aqua hot/compressor/inverter has a black lined panel on the doors which may be insulated under it. No other bays have this panel. Are they missing or do these bay doors only have these panels?
I don't have a panel on any doors and they don't have insulation. When I'm expecting to be below 15-20 degrees for an extended period of time, I add two small electric heaters (200W) to the wet bays and also 1/2-5/8s" of rigid foam insulation in each door opening. Saves running the propane furnace. I've been down to -10 for extended times and can do that mostly using the electric strip heaters in the A/C and an extra space heater (1500W), or two in the coach. Also, a layer of foam in the front windows helps.

I had a damaged bay door that I repaired. The inside of the door is closed cell foam.
The photograph Almost Level shows the foam insulation through the transparent catalyzed resin and glass cloth.

In the main bay I haven't done anything about insulation as having the Aqua-hot there keeps the area
warm. The 2 wet bay doors I have have extra insulation on or in front of the doors.
Those black covers are just that, covers, to protect the door opening mechanism. We had them on the bay doors of our 2000 295.
No insulation inside them.

I added insulation to all the bay doors that had the covers on them

All the doors shud have them?
My '99 has them on all the bay doors but not the hinged ones.

Do by chance have some pics of them? Can they be ordered from FT?
My doors came with them so I don't know about ordering them. I thought all the coaches came with them as I have seen many pictures on the forum showing them.
