  • You can reduce engine noise and heat in your RV with this simple fix. Is your motorhome engine loud? Does heat radiate through your motorhome doghouse? We had the same problem. In this video, we add the Dynamat hood liner to our 2021 Fleetwood Bounder. It was a simple motorhome DIY project that took about 2 hours to complete. If your RV cockpit is loud and you are tired of yelling across the cabin then check out our solution. This video will also show you how to remove the RV doghouse in a late model Fleetwood.
    You can find Dynamat in our Amazon Store under RV utility. www.amazon.com...

    When I had a class C, I also insulated my doghouse, it made a huge difference.
    I have no idea why manufacturers don’t do this from the factory.

    The part that I enjoyed the most was your exchange with the Comedy Channel engineers . Those people do not care at what you have to put up with. They just do it and you worry about it later.

    When I had a class C, I also insulated my doghouse, it made a huge difference. However, I just used some Furnace insulation from Lowes and aluminum duct tape. Made a huge difference in heat and sound.

    GREAT upgrade!! We've had this exact idea, but I never would have thought of the template out of foil! 😂 I had to ask a few techs how to access the dog house on ours, and I'm glad it's not just us who thought this was a pain! 😬

      This worked so well! We've seen a few videos where folks have extended the matting to below the entire cabin for an even quieter drive. What did you use for yours?

    Another great video! When John started with the screwdriver, I thought, oh no! Thank goodness for the driver. Laughed out loud with the lack of a square screw bit. Something like that & Sherri's kitchen scissors are a regular occurrence when I start a project around the house.
    Done, & no parts left over! 😂 Thanks again, it was so helpful because one thing I do know, if we end up with a class a it'll be a gasser or a fred, not a pusher.

    if you contact five star tuning they have a tuner you plug in that gets you better gas mileage and reduces the high reving of the motor on the hill climbs. worth every penny and will pay for itself.

    Those square screws are a Canadian invention manynyears ago caled Robertson. They are far less likely to strip and the screwdriver grips them for easy install. Canadians are annoyed by the archaic philips screws in the same way Americans dislike slotted screws

    • @AmpedtoGlamp

      I live in Canada and thought he encountered some special security screw when he didn't have a head that fits. I was surprised when he said it was square and I thought, who doesn't have a square bit? Every basic screwdriver kit in Canada includes Robertson and Phillips driver bits. It is strange that the US does not use the same basic bits for compatibility with other North American products.

    I'm torn. Should I just do this alone or should I put a layer of sound deadening mat on first with a roller and then this hoodliner on top?

      Definitely do the inside of hoodliner. For additional sound deadening some will also cover the floor near the engine.

      Hey! Quick note on the noise reduction from 82 to 75 decibels: it's actually more significant than a 6% drop. Decibels work on a logarithmic scale, so a 7 dB decrease means the noise intensity was cut by about 5 times, not 6%. That's a pretty impactful reduction! Great to see such effective soundproofing.
