Condensation
and
How
to
Control
It
You
need to understand how to properly manage
and control the humid conditions and condensa-
tion that you may experience.
RVs are much smaller than a house, and are
tightly built. This means that the interior air will
become saturated with moisture more quickly
than in a typical house. The routine activities
of
a few people can put a lot
of
water into the
air.
In cold weather, this moisture may become visi-
ble as condensation.
Condensation happens naturally. Just as mois-
ture collects on the outside
of
a glass
of
cold
water during humid weather, moisture can con-
dense on the inside surfaces
of
your RV during
cold weather when the humidity
of
the interior
air is high.
Water vapor will condense on the inside
of
the
windows and walls.
In
really cold weather, frost
or ice may appear.
It
may also condense
out
of
sight withill the walls
or
the ceiling.
If
enough
water collects
in
the wall or ceiling materials, it
may cause water stains on the wall or ceiling sur-
face. You might think that your walls or ceiling
are leaking.
You
have a problem with condensa-
tion
if
you see these signs. You need
to
do some-
thing to reduce the moisture inside your
RV.
