We had condensation in some of the double glazed windows so I looked this up in my owners manual   {As your caravan is double glazed you may occasionally get condensation inside the double glazing. This is particularly so in severe weather change (usually spring and autumn) and is cured in dry weather.

1) remove the plastic plugs from interior top of each window.

2) leave unplugged for approximataly 1-4 hours until condesation has cleared.)

We could not get the plugs out so left them in , the condesation clears on its own with no trouble.

This information might help someone else who is worried.

Thanks for this Bill and Tania, I am sure that this has happened to many others and they have tried frantically to cure it, mother nature soon proves that she is a caravan lover if we leave it alone!

I asked in another topic like this if one can get new plugs for the holes in windows? Does anyone coming into this conversation know the answer?

Hello Trunkles

Have rang Caravan Tech Hurst Green, they sell them in the shop so I would think you can get them from any caravan dealer shop.
