P a g e
EXTENDED
RECREATIONAL
USE
OF
THE
RV
In
some
cases
you
may
find
yourself
in
the
RV
for
extended
periods
of
time.
Whether
that
be
full
time
living,
a
long
weekend
or
an
extended
stay,
you
may
run
into
some
challenges.
We
have
put
together
some
helpful
tips
for
battling
some
of
these
challenges.
Condensation
&
Mold
The
normal
living
activities
of
even
a
few
people
in
an
RV
can
lead
to
rapid
moisture
saturation
of
the
air
inside
the
RV
as
well
as
accelerated
wear
and
tear.
This
condensation,
if
left
unaddressed,
can
lead
to
mold.
A
more
aggressive
maintenace
schedule
may
need
to
be
adopted.
Below
are
some
pointers
to
assist
with
some
of
the
problems
you
may
face
while
using
the
RV
for
extended
periods
of
time.
Use
a
dehumidifer.
Use
exhaust
fans
when
showering
and
cooking.
In
warmer
temperatures,
use
your
air
conditioner.
Crack
windows.
Don’t
air
dry
clothes
in
the
RV.
Implement
proper
preventative
maintenance
and
overall
RV
cleanliness.
CONDENSATION
MAY
CAUSE
DAMPNESS,
MILDEW
AND
MOLD.
IF
NOT
ADDRESSED
IMMEDIATELY,
CAN
RESULT
IN
DAMAGE
AND
POSSIBLY
LEAD
TO
ADDITIONAL
MOLD
OR
MILDEW
ISSUES
WHICH
CAN
BE
HAZARDOUS
TO
YOUR
HEALTH
Exterior
Plumbing
Alliance
RVs
are
equipped
with
heating
pads
for
the
holding
tanks
and
a
dedicated
heat
vent
to
drop
air
down
into
the
underbelly.
Depending
on
your
needs,
it
may
be
necessary
for
you
to
take
additional
protection
steps.
Keeping
your
water
running
and
the
additional
use
of
heat
tape
on
pipes,
hoses,
fresh
water
and
sewer
lines
will
all
assist
in
keeping
your
RV
safe
from
damage
during
use
in
freezing
temperatures.
If
your
RV
will
not
be
used
in
cold
weather,
ALWAYS
have
your
RV
winterized
(covered
in
the
plumbing
section
of
this
manual).
Formaldehyde
Formaldehyde
is
used
in
many
products
such
as
glues,
fabrics,
paint
coatings,
and
even
paper
products.
Formaldehyde
is
also
released
from
many
smoking,
cooking,
soaps
and
many
other
household
products.
While
most
of
the
formaldehyde
used
in
products
in
construction
is
consumed
during
the
manufacturing
process,
a
very
small
amount
remains.
This
leftover
formaldehyde
dissipates
over
time
as
it
works
its
way
out
of
the
product.
Proper
ventilation
by
way
of
the
available
vents,
fans
and
air
conditioning
units
in
your
RV
is
key.
If
you
have
any
additional
questions,
please
do
not
hesitate
to
contact
