  • 337rls vs 303rls wall thickness difference?

    Someone on a fb forum pointed out that the reflection 337rls shows a wall R value of R-11, and the 303rls shows R-9. I thought they had pretty much identical wall structure, so should have the same R value. Any insights?

    Interesting.

    The 28BH and 320MKS also show R-9 for the wall's rating but the 367BHS shows R-11 like the 337RLS.


    GDRV-Emily or GDRV-Megan can you clarify? Examples of the difference below between the 337 and 303 (from GD website).

      Good afternoon!

      Thanks for bringing this to our attention. There was a typo on our website. There is a difference between the two... We have always advertised the sidewalls as being R-9 for all Reflection 5th wheels and travel trailers. However, all of our bed slide 5th wheels may indeed have a bit higher R-rating due to them having an extra layer of lauan, but how much that effects the R-value, we can not speak with confidence.

      We have updated our website, so it should be accurate now. Thanks again!
