Storage & Care
Long Term Storage
To maximise the life of your caravan you should consider additional protection from the elements. UV light and
moisture can have an adverse effect on materials when left unprotected outside. This section outlines some of
the things you can do as an owner to protect your investment.
Interior
Moisture in the smallest amounts can cause mould. High humidity and cooling temperatures can create
condensation, additionally condensation can form under mattresses due to temperature differences between
warm bodies on top and the bed base being cold from outside temperatures. As a precaution you can do the
following:
•
Check under mattress for moisture before packing up. If moisture is found allow to thoroughly dry before
closing your camper.
•
Store 1 or 2 moisture absorbing packs/dehumidifier packs in the caravan to draw away any residual water
vapour.
•
If packing up with damp or humid conditions, open and dry out the caravan at the first opportunity when
returning home.
Exterior
Ensure all seals on the caravan have proper compression at 30-50%, are free of dirt and have nothing protruding
past the seals. UV light and the elements can over time cause seals and fittings to perish and become brittle. The
use of a caravan cover will extend the life of components and keep your investment looking better for longer.
Batteries
When storing your RV, ensure all power is turned off to ensure the battery isn’t drained. It is recom
mended that
it remains at 50% charge and recharged every 3 months when stored.
