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 caravan, ensure all power is turned off to ensure batteries aren’t drained. Batteries should be
maintenance charged at least monthly when stored. Allowing batteries to drain below 12.05 volts may permanently
damage them.
