Condensation or leak in motorhome
Discussion
Hello
I’ve got a 6 month old motorhome which is being looked at next week, but I wanted to get some opinions of whether this is normal?
I think it’s condensation leaking onto a bed from the inner roof. We leave the van with all the doors open and one of those little UniBond Aero 360s in.
I guess it could also be a leak but not sure how the water could get in?
Obviously I’m a bit worried about what the moisture is doing to the fabric of the van...
Thanks in advance

We only get condensation at night when we are in our A Class, and that is when the heating is on and we forget to snick open windows or skylights and the internal top cupboards. And we go skiing in ours!!
We do also have an excellent thermal screen that goes on the outside of the front window.
When we are not in it, all top cupboards and internal doors are left open, no heating, taps open, windows and skylights closed and water drained out, no sign of damp or mositure.
So, if you weren't in yours when this formed i would be more questioning
Also if we don't leave an air gap between the bedding and the roof of the front bed, it can form there too, but simple enough to remember to drop it a little after dinner.
