FAQs
What material is the caravan cover made from?
The cover is made from a durable, lightweight three-layer fabric, specifically 100% Polypropylene.
How does the cover prevent damp?
The cover is made from breathable non-woven fabric that allows air to circulate, which helps to prevent condensation and the build-up of damp within the caravan.

How is the cover secured to the caravan?

Is the cover waterproof?
The cover is designed to be water-resistant and breathable. While it protects against most weather, its primary function concerning water is to prevent pooling and allow moisture to escape via ventilation, rather than being a fully waterproof seal.
Can I access my caravan without removing the cover?

How should I clean the caravan cover?
The surface is easy to clean. Use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure the cover is completely dry before storing it.

Troubleshooting
Cover seems loose or is flapping in the wind.
Check that all hold-down straps are securely fastened and taut. Ensure guy lines, if used, are properly anchored. Re-tension straps as needed.
Water pooling on the cover.
Ensure the cover is fitted correctly with no significant sags. The design should allow water to run off; slight pooling may occur on flat surfaces but should not be excessive.
Difficulty securing the roll-up side panel.
Make sure the hook & loop fasteners are clean and free of debris. Ensure the panel is aligned correctly before fastening.
Cover material feels damp underneath.
While the cover is breathable, extreme humidity or prolonged wet conditions can still lead to some moisture. Ensure the caravan is adequately ventilated when covered if possible, and check for any breaches in the cover or caravan seals.
