If I bought a new trailer again, before picking it up I would have the trailer place fill all water tanks as much as can fit in right to the top, black and gray tanks and let them set a few day and then look for leaks. The bottom of my tailer is covered with aluminum with 6 inches of insulation. When we first got it we used it once and a while. There were very small leaks but insulation would soak it up and dry by the next time we use it. It always smelled musty but could never figure out why. Then well after warrenty ran out, we started using it for longer periods of time, then thats when we could see water dripping out of the bottom. What a pain to fix. It turned out there were 5 jount leaks. The leaks were very very small and only when about full.
