Hi Gang:

All Dave says is true, and I contend that most of the corner leakage happens when you are not camping. Just a car port might be enough to keep the corners dry. If our camper had to set outside I would at least keep a dehumidifier running inside, roof up or down.

They¡¯re supposed to help protect that area, but it¡¯s a complex, moving area, and historically the combination of hinge seals wrapped around the corners plus the plastic water shields attached to the roof corners has not guaranteed full water ingress deterrence. Nor has the factory¡¯s lame attempts to caulk that area. Water still wicks through that area with resulting damage to wood, as evidenced by numerous instances of sidewall and floor water damage, coil spring tail eruptions through the sidewall skin, etc.

The only sure way to protect those corners is to wick water flow away from them.? Water not only flows into the area from the roof over the sides, but also down the edges of the roof side extrusions.

You don't think the hinge seals protect the corners???
