Great video Liam, very informative, thanks for uploading. Absolutely disgraceful that you have to put up with damp issues on motorhomes/caravans that are sometimes only a year old, fifteen years old?, yes you can maybe understand it, In any other industry this would not be tolerated.
According to the AWS, this is their guidelines: Readings between 0-15% - readings not recorded. Readings between 16% - 20% - Requires further investigation, compare with average readings, re-check in 3 months. Readings above 21% - will identify areas needing remedial work. There may be signs of water ingress or evidence of moisture. Again, it may be worth a re-check in 3 months. Readings above 30% - Structural damage may be occurring and deterioration is inevitable.
Our caravan is 18 months old and has damp , we have had 6 warranty claims in that time and now we have damp , we are so fed up !

Thanks for the comment, appreciate the positive feedback!
Makes me think the best time to look at camper vans is when it’s been raining for a few weeks. Could easily get caught out at the end of a dry spell?
Thats true, but another way to check is get a damp meter! Campervans are usually sealed better than motorhomes from our experience.
I wanna buy one of the damp protected metres
So what is an acceptable % for damp in a MH?
