Should You Cover Your RV in the Winter?


The care and maintenance of your RV varies based on the weather conditions of your specific area of residence.  Many owners often wonder how their RV should be stored in colder climates to preserve its best state. Forest River Inc tackles this question and many more frequently asked questions for motor home lovers around the world.
Storing your RV under a roof type cover or within a building when the RV will not be used for an extended period of time is always a good idea when this option is available to you. When you must store your RV outdoors during periods of non-use you also have the option of using a temporary cover that is draped over the RV, then fastened onto the RV tightly. Many of these covers have a DuPont TTY® top or roof panel and polypropylene side panels. Many RV owners prefer to cover their RV’s with the drape-over style covers to protect the surfaces and finish from UV breakdown, dirt, leaves, birds and other airborne contaminates. On the other hand, many RV owners feel that to cover an RV with the drape-over style covers may lead to chafing and that chafing can lead to rubbing the decals off and other finishes.
