Hello, I was hoping for some advice.
i bought my first caravan 3 months ago and have struggled to get rid of a musky smell that I now fear might be damp.
its the worst in the tall cupboard for hanging clothes that is in the toilet. As seen in the picture below
Underneath the cupboard is the gas locker, which is in a metal box in side the bottom of the cupboard. When inspecting it today I noticed 2 things, first, The mastic seal at the rear bottom edge of the gas locker (as you look into it from outside) is broken. Could this be letting damp into the van?
Second is that the gas pipe, that runs out the bottom of the caravan, along the underneath and back up into the water heater has no seal around it. I can see the tarmac though the gap. It’s sealed at the water heater end. Is this something to be concerned about?
Other than the smell, there are no signs of damp at all, the smell isn’t even that bad, but it does seem to get into all our clothes ect.
