It is OK to leave plugged in all the time if your Springdale has a smart, multi-phase converter. If it is original equipment it is more than likely a single stage converter that will eventually boil battery fluids dry leading to early failure.
Check converter brand and model to get specs online, Randy from Bestconverter.com can suggest an easy to install replacement if indeed it is a single stage unit.
Our rig had a single stage converter as well but all we had to do was purchase a module (IQ4) for our Iota converter to make it a multi-phase charging unit. Our rig is always plugged in when stored in our backyard.
