Poolin water on caravan roof

[caravan john]

hi all, as you all probably know I have hadstroke, and I am in recovery, I am walking about down stairs with a cane at the moment. I am going to put the caravan a seasonal pitch,until I improve a little more But here is my issue, whichwayay would you slope thvan to enable rain water to gently un off.i have an elddis avae 860, it has a rear window and off side rear window. Don't want pooling for a long period of time, particular on the roof straps or joints Any possiblesolutions.
Regards john.

I try to get a slight slope down to the off-side (right) as this helps the nearside kitchen and shower drain as well as stopping the rain pooling on the roof - it doesn't need much of a slope at all.

In storage I would store either with a tilt front to back or back to front. But, and just personal preference, if I had a van on a seasonal pitch I would have to get it level otherwise my undiagnosed autism would kick in.

We have the front slightly raised for run off at the rear as no window there.

Your choice, one or three windows. LOL!

It'll run down the front windows anyway, due to their slope.

No idea about the pros and cons of a roof cover. Never had one. Perhaps someone else can comment.

I hope your recovery carries on without any hiccups,
I would tend to have the caravan slightly nose down, but more importantly for us would be the draining of the shower and kitchen sink. .
For several years now I have been contemplating about fitting Roof seal tape to all the roof joints, just to " super seal " the joints.
