INSURANCE
As with your automobile,
it
is important that you protect yourself
and others with insurance coverages for personal liability, theft,
collision, property damage, etc. Your dealer will assist you
in
obtaining appropriate insurance for
your
protection or you may
check
with
the company which provides
your
automobile insurance.

LIVING
IN
YOUR
JA'YCO
VEHICLE
COULD
CAUSE
ADVERSE
CONDITIONS.
Your new Jayco produced
R.V.
has been built for enjoyment in
a
recreational manner. While it was not intended to be used as living
quarters,
it
can be by making some special provisions and
understanding potential problems.
1
If
used in northern states or Canada in the winter, more insulation
is
desired especially below floor level or as skirting.
2.
Proper care needs to be observed
in
the fresh water and drainage
systems to avoid freezing problems.
3.
Adequate gas
and
electrical supply is needed along with protection
from possible freeze-ups on gas regulator.
4.
A
special heavy-duty furnace rated at
40,000
BTU's and
110
volt
motor is available:
(a) there will be additional cost,
(b)
providing
it
will
fit
into the heater compartment, and
(c)
it must be ordered prior
to building
of
unit. This is not available on
all
units.
5.
If
more than one person occupies the coach, ventilation or addition
of a dehumidifier may be required to reduce possible condensation.
See
the
section regarding
this
possible problem as follows:
Condensation can
be
a
problem in any dwelling used for living
quarters.
It
is largely related to living habits of the members in
the
dwelling. The more persons in a small area the greater potential the
problem may be.
Condensation is the result of warm,
moist air coming in contact with
cool
surfaces such as windows and
aluniinum
framing. Upon contact
of these cool surfaces, the warm air loses its ability
to
hold its
moisture. These beads or drops of moisture will remain on the cool
surfaces
as
moisture'and
it
will begin to run down the windows.
Weep
holes are provided in the lower threshold of the window to drain the
water.
