Has anyone come up with a good way to insulate the LGM fresh water tank for winter camping?

I have seen a few options.  One is an insulated wrap that will go around the water tank.  Two is to wrap the openings under the camper in Styrofoam panel insulation (clunky).  Third is a little more extravagant but a better engineered way and easy to store.  

The underneath of the LGM is merely plywood, sealed but not insulated I believe.  When camping in the snow and very cold with the wind blowing under you unit, it will get pretty cold under your unit.  Air Skirts https://www.airskirts.com/ seems to be an excellent solution (maybe a little expensive, but it depends), to camping in your unit in winter.  I haven't tried these but I have a friend that uses them along with a small electric heater under the unit to provide above freezing temperatures.  This also solves the problem of a freezing grey and black water tank.......nasty! 

Just a few recommendations.  Let us know what you choose and how things work.  We're always looking for new recommendations.  Happy travels.
