That means all pots and pans should be covered properly to keep water content out of the air. This will make a drastic difference in the amount of water build up your RV has.

- Use your fans!

Your fans are not just there to keep you cool. When you begin to see condensation build up, turn on the mounted fans that are located in your bathrooms and living room. This will be especially useful when you are cooking and showering.

- Insulate your windows.
