Molds
Molds are microscopic organisms that naturally
occur in virtually every environment, indoors and
out� Outdoors, mold growth is important in the
decomposition of plants� Indoors, mold growth is
unfavorable� Left unchecked, molds break down
natural materials, such as wood products and fabrics�
Protect your investment by understanding the potential
risks that mold imposes�
Contributing Factors To Mold Growth
For mold growth to occur, temperatures, indoor or
outdoors, must be between 40° and 100°F, and must
also have a source of moisture, such as humidity,
standing water, damp materials, etc� Indoors, the most
rapid growth occurs with warm and humid conditions�
Inhibiting Mold Growth
By controlling relative humidity, the growth of mold and
mildew can be inhibited� In warm climates, use of the
air conditioner will reduce the relative humidity� Vents
are located in the bathing and cooking areas� Constant
use of these vents is advised during food preparation
and bathing, even during colder weather� Additionally,
opening a window during these activities will assist in
ventilation� In extremely humid conditions, the use of a
dehumidifier can be helpful.
Frequent use of your trailer, or cleaning regularly,
are important preventive measures� Additionally, any
spills should be wiped up quickly and dried as soon
as possible� Avoid leaving damp items lying about�
On safe surfaces, use mold or mildew-killing cleaning
products� Check sealants regularly, and reseal when
necessary to avoid water leaks� Proper preventive
maintenance to the trailer and its accessories, as
described both in this manual and in accompanying
literature, will provide the best protection to the trailer�

NOTE
If using a dehumidifier, please read and follow all
manufacturer instructions and recommendations
for the use and cleaning of the dehumidifier.
Waste Water System

1� Toilet Drain

4� Shower Drain
The main parts of the waste water system are the
toilet,
Black/Gray tank(s), and tank dump valve(s);
Black/Gray Water Tank and Draining on page 8-13
The system is designed to provide complete self-
contained toilet facilities, while on the road or parked,
without being connected to a sewage line� It may also
be used in the stationary position while connected to a
sewage hose�
Keep the dump valve closed with either method and
empty the tank only when it is nearly full� The idea is
to send a large volume of water through the tank and
hose at the same time to float solids away.
After the sewage tank has been emptied, close the
dump valve and put approximately five gallons of water
in the sewage holding tank� This will help prevent
solids from building up in the sewage holding tank� The
addition of a deodorizing agent like Aqua-Kem® will
help prevent odors�
Should you ever have a buildup of solids, close the
valve, fill the tank about 3/4 full with fresh water, drive a
distance to agitate the solids, and drain the tank�
Things Not To Put Into Toilet Or Drains
• Facial tissues and feminine hygiene products (they
do not dissolve like toilet paper).
• Automotive antifreeze, ammonia, alcohols, or
acetone�
• Table scraps or other solids that may clog the drains�
