The thermostat that I bought for my D2 heater has a separate switch for heat and fan. The heat register is directional and can be pointed at the windshield. The hope is that I can blow fresh air or heated air to keep condensation off the windshield. I can also use the fan to bring in just fresh air if I get condensation in the V berth.

I finally found a closed cell foam, in thickness from 1/8", 1/4" 3/8" and 1/2" , it is called "2A Volara Foam Closed Cell " Available in off white, and black. It seems to have s smooth surface, and would be used without covering with another material.

The good news is that it comes in 60" wide and sold by the running foot, cheaper than any of the other foams, and probably as cheap as many paints. Certainly a good insulation, and sound reducing material.
