Question
I have a 91 Numar fifth wheel in a flood in north florida.
)
It appears only the belly is wet. How do I dry her out well
as she is a all season? We will get at it ASAP.
Dale,
This is an unfortunate situation. The only real way to do it right is to remove the under belly material to expose the insulation.Once this is achieved, remove the insulation and get it away from the wood floor as soon as possible. If you don,t do it this way, the insulation is like a sponge holding water against the floor boards which will cause them to rot very quickly. Sounds like alot of work, but its not that bad of a job.
Good Luck,
Jim
