STORAGE & MAINTENANCE
S
EALANTS
Water is a park trailer’s worst enemy when it
enters where it is not intended. Sealants
perform a very important function; they must
be inspected closely and be regularly
maintained.
We incorporate many different
types of sealants, including
butyl/putty, black butyl-
encapsulated foam, silicone (clear
and colored), roof sealant, foam,
etc. In general, sealants do not
have “set” lifetimes. Varying
environmental factors affect the
pliability and adhesiveness of
sealants.
Sealants can be affected by
ultraviolet exposure, air pollution,
extreme temperatures and
exposure to other elements.
Conditions such as rain, salt, dust
and pollution may increase the
need to maintain your park trailer’s
sealants. Checking the sealants is
considered customer maintenance.
It is recommended that you or your dealer
Inspect all sealants a minimum of every six
months. Make sure to check the roof and all
four sides of the park trailer including all
moldings, windows, doors, vents and exterior
attachments. Reseal as necessary and at
least one time each year as preventative
maintenance.
Replace sealant and cap seal if you notice
any cracks, gaps, lifting, looseness,
peeling, shrinkage, voids or any sign of
physical deterioration. Complete your
repairs immediately to prevent damage to
your park trailer.
Always use the same type of sealant
originally used to build your park trailer.
Consult your dealer for assistance with
the proper sealant(s) to use on the
specific area(s) of your park trailer.
If you notice water inside the park trailer,
immediately have the dealer check for the
source of the leak. Failure to correct the
leak may result in serious damage to your
park trailer; this damage may not be
warrantable.
Although the following diagrams may not
accurately reflect the exact model of your park
trailer, make sure you inspect all sealants as
indicated in the text. If you have questions
and/or need assistance with sealing your park
trailer, consult with your dealer.
Failure to properly maintain or reseal your
park trailer may result in serious water
damage to the roof and other parts of the
park trailer. This damage is not covered by
the
Towable Limited Warranty
.
If your park trailer is equipped with a roof
ladder, do not leave items attached to it
while traveling. The ladder has a weight
limit of 350# when using it to access the
roof. DO NOT exceed this weight limit.
To check the exterior sidewall sealants,
use a stepladder placed safely beside the
park trailer. Do not prop a ladder against
the body of the park trailer as it may
