insulation repair

(1/4) > >>

Jerry Carr:
On my 06 Patriot I have an issue with the insulation wrap on the aqua hot exhaust, it is now frayed and hanging in spots, my question is should I replace this with a new sleeve or should I wrap this with some other type of product for a quick repair? If I do just use a quick repair method what's available to do the job?

 
Regards, Jerry

Bill Sprague:
Interesting!  Mine has no insulation.  The exaust runs in a bare pipe from the Hydro Hot behind the right front wheel to the outlet infront of the left rear wheel and under the bedroom window.  I wonder how many are insulated and how many are not.

Jerry Carr:
Hi Bill,

It sound like a change in the plumbing my coach is an 06 Pat. Thunder On my Rig the exhaust pipe crosses the coach from the passengers side to the exit on the drivers side located at the Elec/Plumbing access door. The insulation is a woven product that appears to not hold up very well, I assume it's been installed by the Factory as a safety issue preventing brush or grass flare ups during parking.  The sleeve is rather unsightly and it's now hanging down. I would like to just put a wrap around it but am not sure what available, or perhaps I should just remove it?.

Regards, Jerry

Bill Sprague:
Jerry,

My exhaust plumbing on my '04 Monterey is routed the same way but there has never been any insulation.  Next week I'll be at a rally in Leanvenworth, WA with about a dozen coaches.  I'm going to look under some and see what they have.  

Bill

Jerry Carr:
Thanks Bill, would it be helpful if I send a photo for your use? I will be at the Harrisburg rally and FMCA
