MAINTENANCE

d. After showering, keep the bathroom window
or skylights open, and shut the bathroom
door long enough to dry off the room.
e. Fixed ventilation is provided in the vehicle,
specifically through the floor, it is important
not to block these.
f. Electrical heating is dryer than gas heating,
and introduces less moisture into the
atmosphere. Do not use additional portable
paraffin or flue-less gas heaters at all.
g. If left unoccupied and unheated for long
periods of time the temperatures can soak
down thermally into the entire product and
become very cold. Whenever possible, put
the heating on at a low level before use by
pre heating in cold weather.
h. Even with reasonable ventilation it is likely
if the temperature is less than 5
o
C and
the humidity is high that condensation will
occur. Ideally the temperature should be
kept about 20
o
C when occupied.
Mould Growth
Any sign of mould growth is an indication of
the presence of moisture and if caused by
condensation gives warning that heating or
ventilation may require improving.
New vehicles
New products take a long time before they are
fully 'dried out' because of the moisture in the
materials used during manufacture. While this
is happening extra heat and ventilation will be
required.
Corrosion
Your caravan has been designed and built
using the corrosion resistant materials (e.g.
aluminium panels, stainless steel fixings, hot
dip galvanised chassis and powder coated
extrusions), which if looked after will extend
the life and aesthetics of the product in normal
service. In certain conditions, for example, if
sited for extended periods in close proximity
to sea and sand spray, you may experience
premature ageing and/or corrosion of the
vehicle than under normal conditions.
To help prevent this, we advise regular
cleaning and application of a good quality
external car polish. For extended periods
(where the vehicle is not in use), we
recommend the use of well fitted breathable
vehicle cover as protection from harsh coastal
elements.
Caravan interior
Follow these guidelines to ensure your
investment is receiving the very best attention.
Side Walls, Roof Lining
A simple wipe over with a damp cloth and a
very mild detergent is all that is needed.
Soft Furnishings
Should be vacuumed occasionally to
remove grit and sand and help to keep
its smart appearance and ensure long
life. The upholstery can be cleaned with
a mild, reputable upholstery cleaner. It is
recommended that the curtains and pelmets
are specialist cleaned only. The foam used
in cushions is manufactured to meet fire
regulations. It requires time to return to its
normal position after prolonged use.
