Not heard of mould being covered under general caravan insurance, or indeed the integrity of the van against water ingress.
Is the van still under manufacturers cover, or are you referring to you standard cover?

We've never had a problem with mould thus far, but don at t use a cover. If a cover, covers up the vents, then this can't be a good thing can it?
We air the van a couple of times through the winter when there's a warm day , lift the roof vents, open windows etc. Also heat it up and get it to a really warm temperature in there a couple of times a winter.
Our last trip is in October and first in Feb, so for us this period is only 3 and half months.
Just looking online, and to clean white vinegar is mentioned a lot. Take a look at this site.
