See the next section for important information oncontrolling condensation.CONDENSATIONCondensation is a natural phenomenon. The amount of condensation will vary with theclimate conditions, particularly the relative humidity. Condensation occurs because thereis water vapor present in the air, which is added by breathing, bathing and cooking. Thewater vapor collects where there is available air space, and when the temperature reachesthe ‘dew point’ the water vapor in the air condenses and changes to liquid form. Mostpeople have experienced a similar phenomenon when moisture forms on kitchen windowsand bathroom mirrors during cool weather.Proper ventilation and, if needed, the use of a dehumidifier will assist in controlling thecondensation. Many RV and marine dealers carry small dehumidifiers especially sized forrecreation use. Condensation causes dampness, mildew, staining and if allowed tocontinue at high levels, damage to the paneling and wood structures. It is the owner’sresponsibility to make sure that condensation is properly removed for the air.INSURANCEAs with your automobile, it is important that you protect yourself and others with insurancecoverages for personal liability, theft, collision, property damage, etc. Your independent,authorized dealer can assist you in obtaining appropriate insurance for your protection oryou may check with the company which provides your automobile insurance or otherinsurance companies.Jay Flight Conventional Travel Trailer and Fifth-Wheel Travel Trailer 19
