Re: [A/S] Re:Airstream Article



Judy:
In my case the water was coming in from somewhere at the top of the 
trailer and running down to the floor  through the walls. After a 
rainstorm, or even washing the trailer, water would start dripping 
from the overlapping panels,  and screw heads mounting the window 
shades above the counter top and also at the head of the bed. This 
takes awhile after the water ( rain etc.) starts until the insulation 
saturates. If you dont see it actually dripping, you can press on the 
panels with your hand where they overlap. Mine started slowly and then 
progressed to where I would mop up more than a half bucket after 
washing the trailer.
Check all the overlapping panels on all interior walls. Mine leaked 
for & aft on the whole street side. 
I also had leaks coming in from around the door and a window.These 
leaks were repaired satisfactorly as they were not on the inside of 
the wall. I dont think you need to worry about these type of leake as 
long as they are repaired right away.
I hope you dont have intra-wall leaks.
