[Healeys] Carpet question

[John Spaur]

Bill,

 

I have three layers and the cockpit never heats up.

 

Installed the following starting from the floor pan up:

 

Q-Pad instead of the tar paper which was most likely a sound
deadener/insulation at the time.

Dynamat for additional heat and sound dampening. It is meant to replace the
tar paper or in my case the Q-Pad.

Dynaliner - advertised as a sonic and THERMAL blocker. Check the first
sentence I wrote if you doubt this statement. :)

If I were to do it again, I might leave out the Q-Pad because it is hard to
install. Have a heat gun handy or pick a ware day to install it, because it
takes persistence to press it into place.

Does anyone know the function of the layer of tar paper that is supposed to
go under the carpet? What are the pros and cons of leaving it out?

 

Thanks.
