Condensation During Winter Storage

Do folks do anything to prevent condensation during over the winter storage in northern climes?

Had mildew on all the hard surfaces one year when I left the roof vent and a window cracked under a soft cover.

    Usually not an issue if it's just in storage.

    You aren't keeping it heated are you? When we use the rig in the winter, condensation is an issue but that is because the inside temp is much warmer than the outside and the aluminum window frames develop condensation.

    We cover our TT and leave the ceiling vents open (with Maxxair covers) and both end windows cracked and have never had a problem. I assume you don't try to heat the rig while stored.
