Cover Advice

Can the cover be put on when the RV is wet? Concerned about tapping moisture.
  • Most have the upper sidewall vents in the cover. Ours does and the wind does blow through them well enough to dry if the temp. or sun get warm enough.
  • Good inputs. Darn cover arrived the day of freezing rain and now I have 2 inches of snow on it. If I get a few days above freezing I'll try to dry it off some. Thanks.
  • I used to cover mine but I think it would be best if it was dry. That being said, I put it on dry and still had trouble with it freezing down on the roof if I wanted to use the motor home in the winter. I solved the problem by putting some things on the roof to hold the cover up so it wouldn't freeze down. I didn't have any trouble with mildew or mold.
  • I wouldn’t put a cover on when the RV is wet. Yes, “tapping” is also a concern.
  • Supposed to be breathable but I would make sure it's dry first. Seems to me like it would grow mold and mildew.
