Complete Buying Guide: Thermal Blinds

Milenco's thermal blind range covers both the outside and inside of the cab, giving motorhome and campervan owners a choice depending on whether they want an external windscreen cover or an internal privacy and insulation set.

Universal External Thermal Blind

This one-size, all-season windscreen cover blocks heat and glare in summer, reduces heat loss in winter, and helps prevent interior condensation, keeping the windscreen clear and the cab dry. It's temperature tested from -20°C to +50°C, fits via an elasticated edge and by closing the cab doors over it — so there are no straps across the paintwork — with mirror cut-outs for a neat fit, and a zip-down panel for instant daylight or visibility without removing the whole cover. It's designed to fit most chassis cabs including Fiat Ducato, Ford Transit, Mercedes Sprinter and Vito, Peugeot Boxer, Renault Master and VW Transporter.

Universal Internal Silver Thermal Blind

A 3-piece interior screen set — one windscreen panel plus two side window panels — that helps retain heat in winter, reflect heat in summer, and reduce condensation on the glass. The silver reflective outer face improves thermal performance and blocks light, and it fits with suction cups for a tool-free, fast installation, folding down small for storage.

Universal Internal Thermal Blind

A similar 3-piece interior set without the silver reflective face, using a lightweight, multi-layer construction with a reflective outer for thermal performance, again fitted with suction cups.

Choosing between them

The external blind protects the windscreen itself and is the better choice if you want to keep the cab cool or frost-free from outside, while the internal sets add privacy and block light from within, which the external cover alone doesn't provide. Many owners use an external cover for parking and an internal set for overnight privacy.
