Condensation in new van?

[Christoph]

Just back from a trip to Anglesey where believe it or not it didn't rain that much. On the couple of days it did rain we woke to condensation on just one of the double glazed windows in the bedroom. I thought we had a leak but it looks like it's just condensation. The dealer has the van now to check it and fix some minor snags. They tell me it's normal to get condensation when the temp drops outside, even on double glazed windows. Never had any issues like this with our other van. Any thoughts please? Thanks

If it is between the panes then the window is faulty.

No - it's on the inside of the pane

buy a archer window vac or a lookalike from Aldi etc. You will be needing it on the front screen soon.. You will bee surprised how much water you breathe out during the night, kettles don't help either .

We have one of those little de-hum things that sits on the worktop, looks like a big air freshener. Seems to keep moisture at bay ?

If you are getting condensation on the inside of your windows you need more ventilation during the night. We always have at least one rooflight open.

Yes put a couple of Windows on the sneck, that should sort it.

It’s normal, we always have a few on vent. That sorts it.

Ours is the same, both bedroom windows get condensation around the bottom at night when the outside temperatures are low. You lose about half a litre of water ( breathing and perspiration) per night. It has to go somewhere and will condense on cold surfaces.
You need good ventilation
