Quality Just Kampers product, exclusive to JK. We’ve designed our thermo mat sets to be the perfect camping accessory for any season, and keep your VW T5 or T6 at a comfortable temperature year round. Made to the right dimensions for the windscreen, nearside (left) cab window and offside (right) cab window, our thermo mats will fit either the VW T5 or T6.
At a glance:
• Designed by JK, based on our own decades of camping experience, and refined over the years,
• They now contain seven layers of material, for outstanding insulation in the winter,
• The outermost layer is reflective silver, which bounces harsh sunlight away in the summer,
• Really easy to set up, using the suction cups which come with the mats,
• Supplied with its own carry bag, so they’re easy to store and transport.
We’ve improved and refined our original design for our range of thermo mats over the years, and they’re now better than ever. The types of materials used to create them has been improved, as has the quality of the stitching and even the number of layers each mat has.
Fitting information:
Fits the windscreen, offside (right) and nearside (left) cab windows on the VW T5 built from 2003 to 2015 and the VW T6 built from 2015 onwards. Each of the three thermo mats is easy to attach to the window glass using the suction cups supplied with them.
There are high quality eyelets pressed into the mats, which work with the attachment points on the suction cups to ensure they’re held fast against the window. You can sleep soundly knowing they won’t fall off in the night and have you waking up at the crack of dawn!
How they work:
Designed to be the ultimate camping accessory for adventures in your van year-round, our thermomats are invaluable for any season.
Keeping the light at bay
Installing thermo mats over your windows will give you a secure cover over your front three windows, so no light can sneak through. You can fit blackout curtains over your rear windows, but you’ll still wake up far too early if the sun comes streaking in through the cab! Because we’ve designed the thermo mats so that they’re the exact right size for your windows, so there aren’t any gaps for the sun to sneak in through. We’ve also ensured that the eyelets for the suction cups are placed far enough in to the material that there’s a good overlap between the edge of the mat and the edge of your window, for a secure seal.
Bouncing heat and light away
The outermost layer on our thermo mats is a highly reflective silver material, which will simply bounce sunlight back out of your van. This is perfect when you’re camping over the summer, as we’ve all woken up in a camper which felt more like an oven and regretted not cracking a window before we went to bed. A set of thermo mats will block sunlight from heating up the interior of your T4, so you’ll never again wake up feeling like you’re being cooked!
Stay warm in winter
But if the thermo mats stop me from getting too hot in the summer, won’t I be cold in winter? The short answer is, not at all! While the outer layer is perfect for reflecting strong sunlight away during the summer, the layers inside the thermo mats are ideal for helping keep your T4 warm in cooler weather. During the autumn and winter, the outside air will be far colder than the inside of your van, and so heat will try to escape through the glass in your windows, as glass is great as transferring heat. With seven layers of insulating material between the lovely warm air in your camper and the cold window glass, plenty of warmth will be trapped inside, keeping you nice and toasty no matter what the weather is doing outside.
