6.6 Furniture
Moisture in the air can cause damage to the furniture as the wood expands or contracts with an
increase or decrease in the relative humidity. A relative humidity of between 40% - 60% is tolerable.
If values are maintained outside this range for a sustained period damage to the furniture may
occur.
•
To prevent damage, assure the relative humidity of air is not too high for a long period by
either ventilating the trailer, or by using dehumidifiers or water absorbent crystals.
To ventilate your trailer, on dry days open as many windows and roof lights as possible to allow air
to move through the trailer. Try to do this as often as possible (at least once a week), but keep
windows and roof lights closed on wet days as damp air may increase indoor humidity.
•
Do not leave furniture surfaces wet with beads of standing water.
•
Wipe off any condensation that may collect on windows and metalwork.
6.7 Care of your upholstery.
The upholstery fabrics are fire retardant treated. Do not get wet. If cleaning is required DRY CLEAN
ONLY.
6.8 Hinges and Catches
Lightly oil occasionally.
