tentz. we don't heat an empty caravan. i am just saying that they recommend heating and ventilation in the home to prevent condensation. if it works in the home the same principal should aplly to caravans. we can't heat the caravan because it is 10 miles away in storage. we know that condensation causes black mould on external windows & walls, clings to clothing and curtains causing unpleasant smells.. my job up until retirment involved me inspecting empty properties anyone who has been in a property that has stood empty for a good while will have seen the mould stain, wallpaper hanging off the ceilings and and walls . and noticed the smell of damp. our thinking is that if an empty property can suffers in this way then the same rule must apply to an empty caravan. all we are hoping to do is limit the damage caused by condensation until we can get back in the caravan ( asap )and get it warmed back up.
