Roof Care and Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance of your motor home, including your roof, is important for sustained, trouble-free
performance. Normal maintenance is simple and easy and does not require special materials. The roof of the motor
home is fiberglass and can be cared for in the conventional manner. Keep the roof clean; one should clean the roof at
least every three months. The roof should be professionally inspected on an annual basis for leaks. Sealant may be
necessary in the second year of ownership.
Use caution when working on the top of your motor home. The wet roof may be
extremely slippery and, as such, a possible safety hazard.

Moisture Management

This section outlines important recommendations to manage moisture in your motor home to avoid moisture-related
damage, such as mold, which is caused by moisture. The materials and methods used to construct your motor home
were selected in part to minimize air leakage and to create a weather tight exterior shell. However, in order to protect
your investment and reduce the risk of moisture-related damage and costly repairs, attention and care has to be taken
to manage moisture inside your RV. Note: These are only suggestions intended to minimize moisture-related issues with
your motor home. If any concerns arise, contact Tiffin Motorhomes' Service Department at (256) 356-0261.
