ONDENSATION
CAUTION
Condensation causes dampness, mildew,
mold, staining and, if allowed to continue at
high levels, damage to the camper.
Condensation is a natural phenomenon. The
amount of condensation will vary with climate
conditions, particularly the relative humidity.
Condensation occurs because there is water
vapor present in the air, which each of us adds
to by breathing, bathing or cooking. The water
vapor usually collects on the coolest surfaces.
When the temperature reaches the "dew
point," the water vapor in the air condenses
and changes to a liquid form. Most people
have experienced a similar phenomenon
when a moisture forms on kitchen windows, or
bathroom mirrors during cool weather.

CAMPING & OPERATING
To reduce condensation
Proper ventilation and, if needed, the use of a
dehumidifier will assist in controlling the
condensation. Many RV and marine dealers
carry small dehumidifiers sized for RV use.
Other suggestions are:
When taking a shower open the bath roof
vent approximately
moisture to escape.
Use the range power vent when cooking.
If condensation is found in cabinets or
closets, open those doors slightly to
equalize the temperature and provide
ventilation.
Open windows and roof vents to allow
warm moist air to escape.
Uncontrolled

dampness, mildew, etc., inside your RV. Be

The 12-volt DC attic fan (or powered roof vent)
allows fresh air to circulate through the RV. Do
not leave the attic fan in active automatic mode
when the RV is stored or unattended for long
periods. High winds, other unusual conditions
or obstructions may prevent the dome from
closing. The resulting leakage could cause
damage.
