General Care

12.1 Galvanised Chassis

Your RPH chassis is hot dipped galvanised, a 

method used for many years throughout the 

automotive industry and widely regarded as 

one of the best forms of corrosion protection.
When the steel is withdrawn from the 

galvanising bath it has a clean, bright surface 

which over a period of time changes to a 

dull grey colour as the surface zinc reacts 

with oxygen, water and carbon dioxide in the 

atmosphere to form a tough, stable, protective 

layer. 
During this time, if galvanised items are stored in 

damp or wet conditions, where there is little or 

no air movement, then the zinc will continue to 

react with the moisture that is present. In doing 

so the zinc will produce excessive amounts of 

zinc hydroxide which is a bulky white deposit 

on the surface of the galvanising and is often 

referred to as wet storage stain (white rust).
You can help to prevent wet storage stain (white 

rust) occurring by washing the chassis with 

clean water as soon as it is delivered allowing an 

adequate flow of dry air to ensure it dries out.

Should wet storage stain (white rust) occur it 

can be removed using a stiff bristle brush or a 

“Scotchbrite” pad.  Because of its post process 

nature “Wet Storage Stain (white rust)” is not 

covered under Warranty procedures.

12.2 External structure

Regularly carry out visual inspections for 

damage to panels, gutter and other external 

features. Signs of damage, leakage and 

movement should be repaired as necessary.

WARNING: 

For the Cleaning, Inspection 

and maintenance / repair of roofs we 

recommend it is carried out by a suitably 

competent professional contractor. If access 

to the roof is necessary then this should be 

properly planned, supervised and carried 

out by competent people with the skills, 

knowledge and experience to carry out this 

activity. The correct equipment must always 

be used.

i

Note: 

The roof should be inspected for 

leaks and rectified as necessary

WARNING: 

Ensure that all necessary 

working at height safety precautions are in 

place before climbing onto the roof.

WARNING: 

To avoid damaging the roof, use 

a 15mm or thick sheet of plywood or similar 

which must be wide enough to span over two 

roof spars (approximately 600mm centres). A 

sheet 1220mm x 1220mm (4’x 4’) should be 

suitable when positioned carefully on the roof.

12.3 Blockages

If you have a waste water or toilet blockage, the 

first thing to check is that the site main drainage 

is clear as any blockages here could back-up 

to your Leisure Lodge. If it is clear and you 

have a toilet blockage we would recommend 

that you call a plumber, unless you are aware 

of what could have caused the problem and 

are competent to address the problem. If it is 

a waste blockage, you should first check and 

clean out traps situated under the sink, basin 

and shower tray (if fitted). If you still have a 

blockage, then it must be in the feeder pipes to 

the main sewerage pipes or the main sewerage 

pipe. You should consult a plumber or your park 

officer at this stage unless you are competent 

to do the job.

Gutters and downpipes

It is important that all gutters and down pipes 

are kept free from obstructions and blockages. 

Inspect regularly.

12.4 CanExel panels

CanExel prefinished panels are produced from 

wood fibre, resin, and wax fused under pressure.

This engineered wood panelling is highly stable, 

as well as highly resistant to moisture with a 

finish consisting of five coats of baked-on paint 

and a sealer top coat.
The cleaning method recommended is to wash 

down with plenty of clean water and very mild 

detergent.
