We purchased our E19 pre-owned and it did not come with any cold climate stuff from Escape. I really want to insulate the underside. I put heaters on the fresh and grey water tanks. We spend a good part of our time in the Escape during the fall and winter and we could certainly use a little more warmth.

With that said.. what is the proper way to insulate underneath? I am assuming some sort of spray on insulator. I would love to change out the windows as well.. but that might be a bridge too far.

Thanks for the suggestions!
 
I attached 2" Blue Styrofoam boards under my 21C. Used Loctite PL Premium FAST GRAB Polyurethane Construction Adhesive, although Locktite PL Premium Max is easier to find. Both will cure without air and neither eats Styrofoam. Boards are still there after 2 years & 14,000 tow miles.
 
I've added insulation to both my 19 and 21. Definitely makes for a warmer floor. There are detailed threads for both of them, searching should find them.

The foam stands up well. The Alaska Hwy. and rocky roads in Baja only put minor divots on the surface. I did paint mine with a black latex paint.
