We've been experiencing condensation in our 26RSB
I've put all the extra blankets and sheets in plastic bags in the cab over. We had a leak that BF repaired. BUT we still find that the plastic bags are damp. Leaving the cupboard doors open seems to help a bit. It has been cool in Georgia where we are "wintering" so the heat has been on frequently. Even the boxes of cereal in the side overhead cabinets are damp. When we go to bed we open those cabinets, too. Has anyone had similar problems - if so - how have you dealt with it? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Your might try leaving a window cracked open or the roof vent open. People living and sleeping in an RV create a lot of condensation through breathing, cooking, and showering. The only way to get rid of it is to exhaust it to the outside.

Hi Winnie,
Using a forced air gas furnace should keep your unit very dry. You should use your exhaust fan when showering and crack open your overhead vent when cooking for a long duration.
You said that you had your leak fixed at the factory. We had to make three trips to the factory to finally fix our water leak.
I would suggest that you call Kim Olsen at 800-247-1835 and ask his opinion.

I live in my unit in Oregon so leaving a window cracked doesn't help at all since the humidity outside is usually 100%. What I found works great here where it rains all winter is to use electric heat along with the gas furnace. Use the heat strip in your air conditioner if you have one or a small electric heater. Solved all my problems with high humidity.
