Sealants
Sealants perform a very important function and should be inspected closely and regularly
maintained. We incorporate many different types of sealants, including butyl/putty, black
butyl-encapsulated foam, silicone (clear and colored), roof sealant and foam. In general,
sealants do not have “set” lifetimes. Varying environmental factors affect the pliability and
adhesiveness of sealants.
You or your dealer must:
Inspect all sealants, a minimum of every six months. Make sure to check the roof
and all four sides of the recreation vehicle including al moldings, doors, vents and
exterior attachments. A quick walk around the recreation vehicle before leaving
may help prevent potential problems during trips and vacations.
Have the sealant replaced if you notice any cracks, peeling, voids, gaps, breaks,
looseness or any sign of physical deterioration. Reseal at least one time each year
as preventative maintenance.
Always use the same type of sealant that was removed. Your dealer service or
parts manager can help you obtain the correct sealant(s).
The sealants may become damaged due to road vibration, ultraviolet exposure, air pollution,
freezing temperatures and exposure to other elements. Repair deteriorated sealants immedi-
ately to prevent damage. Cap seal all trim and openings at least once after the first year and
thereafter as cracks, peeling, lifting and shrinkage occur.
Failure to properly maintain or reseal your recreation vehicle may result
in serious water damage to the roof and other parts of the recreation ve-
hicle. This damage is not covered by the Limited Warranty.
To check the exterior sidewall sealants, use a stepladder placed safely
alongside the vehicle. Do not prop a ladder against the body of the RV as
it may damage the exterior finish.
