The shell should be inspected periodically for tears, gaps, and condition of sealants. Areas
that require maintenance should be resealed utilizing a proven, high quality sealant of similar
characteristics as the original sealant.
Particular attention should be devoted to ensure the slideouts are functioning properly.
Each time a slideout is used, it should be inspected to ensure proper operation and sealing.
The slideout gaskets should also be inspected to ensure proper sealing when the slideout is
operated.
Storage of the Motorhome
During those periods when your motorhome is not in use, care must be taken to ensure
moisture sources are addressed. The ideal storage of your motorhome would be in an
enclosed, climate controlled environment. If this is not possible, the following steps should be
taken to help ensure moisture control:
•
Turn OFF and disconnect from all water sources
•
Turn OFF all combustion appliances
•
Drain all holding tanks
•
Drain the water heater
•
Winterize your motorhome if in winter months
•
Open all closets, cabinet doors, and drawers
•
Close all windows and interior entrance doors
•
Open a roof vent enough to allow for some limited ventilation air flow, but not so far as to
allow snow or rain to enter
When storing the motorhome in high humidity climates (where ambient relative humidity is
greater than 60% year round) use a (customer supplied) dehumidifier (drained to the exterior)
to control humidity inside the motorhome during storage.
