🥶 COLD WEATHER COMING? DON’T GO OVERBOARD WITH MOISTURE TRAPS!
You might be tempted to place a little blue dehumidifier in every corner of your caravan or motorhome this winter… but more tubs don’t necessarily mean better protection! 💧
Caravans and motorhomes have permanent ventilation, so outside air continues to circulate. Moisture traps can help remove excess moisture after use, but over winter they can end up collecting moisture arriving from outside — offering limited extra benefit.
A full tub doesn’t automatically mean your caravan has a damp problem!
Instead, focus on:
✅ Keeping permanent vents clear — never block them.
✅ Removing wet clothing, towels and bedding before storage.
✅ Allowing air to circulate around cushions and inside cupboards.
✅ Checking regularly for leaks, staining or musty smells.
🔧 Moisture traps won’t fix water ingress. Finding and repairing the source is what matters.
