Caravan Damp Checks Explained
5 min read
What a damp check involves, what the readings mean and why they matter so much.
How damp gets in
Failed seals, older sealant, small impacts and blocked drainage are common causes.
What is measured
A meter takes readings around windows, corners, lockers and floors to build a picture across the caravan.
Reading the results
Higher readings do not always mean a serious problem, but they should always be investigated.
