Condensation - Tiffin Motorhomes 2014 Allegro Owner's Manual

TIFFIN MOTORHOMES
An inexpensive battery tester, available from any local electronics retailer, would be a good investment to make. This
tester would allow checking of the batteries in the various alarms, any flashlights used in the motor home, and batteries
in other appliances (e.g., portable radios, MP3 players, CD players, PDAs, and various electronic games) which may be
in the motor home during travels.

Condensation

Since surface condensation within the motor home cannot be controlled by the
manufacturer, damage caused by condensation is not covered by the Tiffin
Damage may occur to your motor home if excessive condensation exists. Accumulation of condensation on surfaces
within your motor home occurs when warm, moist air contacts a cool surface. It is most evident on the inside of
windows, but this problem can be controlled by:
1. Slightly opening a window or roof vent to allow the moisture to escape from the motor home.
2. Using a small dehumidifier, which is also effective in removing moisture from the air.
Condensation levels are highest during times when a person is cooking or taking a shower in the motor home, but these
occasions are not the only times condensation is present. Walls and ceiling panels may become wet when the moisture
accumulates on these surfaces. Tiffin Motorhomes does not recommend the use of any catalytic heaters because of
resulting extensive condensation.
Always follow the chassis maintenance guidelines found in the chassis
