Contributing Factors to Mold Growth
For mold growth to occur, temperatures, indoors 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 even during colder weather.
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 laying
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 camper.
For more information concerning controlling
moisture in the trailer, read Tips to Controlling
Condensation in this section.
NOTE
If using a dehumidifier, please read and follow
all manufacturer instructions and
recommendations for the use and cleaning of the
dehumidifier
.
Safety
As always, safety should be a top priority. Ensure
that you, and everyone traveling with you, can
operate the main and rear door rapidly, without
light. Contemplate other means of escape in case
the designated exit is blocked.
The side windows can be vented to allow fresh air
in and stale air to escape, however, the windows
were not designed as escape windows. Be sure to
keep both doors unblocked for means of escape if
necessary.
WARNING
The window operation should be checked before
each trip and the latches lubricated with WD-
40® or an equivalent lubricant every six months.
WARNING
Read the directions on the fire extinguisher
carefully. If you have any doubts as to its
operation, you and your family should practice,
then replace or recharge the extinguisher. Your
local fire department will be able to assist you
and answer any questions.
WARNING
Do not smoke inside the camper. Keep matches
out of reach of small children. Don’t clean with
flammable material. Keep flammable material
away from open flame. Always shut off the LPG
gas at the tanks when fueling a tow vehicle.
