Water ingress into caravans can be a major problem.
Water ingress has the potential to cause expensive damage to your pride and joy. Window seals are a common culprit of leaks but, luckily, theyโre quite easy to fix. Itโs a do-it-yourself job most people could manage with a few ordinary tools and a couple of spare hours. Glynn Magain from the RV Repair Centre in Bayswater North, Vic, said there wasnโt much that caravan owners could do to prevent window leaks, as it really came down to how well the window was sealed in the factory. Re-sealing a leaking window involves removing the window from the van, removing the old sealant โ whether itโs silicone, foam tape or both โ cleaning the window, re-sealing and re-inserting the window.
