Dampness, mildew and the use of dehumideriers
Does anyone use dehumidifiers in their 5ers and if so, what is the best size to use? My unit is a 30 ft 5er with a single slide, I'm assuming about 150 sq ft.

Do you have dampness in your fiver?
Do you keep the skylight lids open?
Ive never had mildew,dampness in my campers with lids open yr round when not occupied.
You didnt go into much detail about the problem your having.But you should not have any of that in your camper,nor should you need to use a dehumidifier.We have dewpoints in the high seventies just like you and never had a issue.I have a 40 ft fiver.
What I do use in the winter when rv doesnt move for 7 months is a pail of damp rid( water removing crystals) Maybe you can try using those in conjunction with opening the lids.I just cant see how or why you would need a dehumidifier running.
