RV water damage can occur due to several reasons

Window and Door Leaks

Windows and doors are vulnerable areas where water can seep into an RV. If the seals around the windows or doors become worn out or damaged, water can penetrate through components can cause water to leak and potentially damage the interior of the RV.

Leaking Roof

One of the primary sources of water damage in RVs is leaking roof. Over time, the roof can develop cracks, gaps, or loose seals, allowing water to enter the vehicle during the rain or while driving through wet conditions.

Condensation

Condensation can accu,ulate inside and RV, especially in areas with high humidity or temerature fluctuations. Poor ventilation and inadequate airflow can result in excess moisture, leading to condensation on walls, windows, or ceilings. Over time, this can cause water damage and promote the growth of mold and mildew.

Damaged Seals and Seams

RVs have various seals and seams that protect against water intrusion. These include seals around vents, air conditioners, skylights, and other exterior attachments. If these seals become damaged, worn out, or improperly installed, water can seep into the RV through these entry points.

Undercarriage damage

Water can enter the RV from ground, especially if there undercarriage has been damaged or compromised. Driving through flooded areas or parking on wet ground can lead to water intrusion from underneath the RV.

External Damage

Cracks, holes, or damage to the exterior walls, siding, or fiberglass of an RV can provide pathways for water to enter the vehicle during rainfall or while driving in wet conditions.
