Shower Skylight ! (1 Viewer)

[Cliffyboy]

Just wondered if anybody else who has a Adria Coral2018 is struggling to keep the skylight in the shower area clean ? It appears to get dirty from the inside and the only way to clean it is pull it to pieces and clean it which is a pain and wondered

 

[Cliffyboy]

If anybody else has had this problem and was able to remedy this problem or is a case of fitting a different type of skylight ?.

A photo of the skylight may help.

Is it an MPK rooflight?
Had one in our first Hymer absolute pain with muck getting between the two halves, just have to take it apart and clean it every couple of years.

If it is the "double skinned" type, with ventilation slots from the inner skin, then I had the same challenge of keeping it clean on my previous van. Once a year I used to take off the twin-skinned cover, take the skins apart with a long suitable driver and clean between, before reassembling.
If it's not this type, feel free to ignore my rambling explanation

Yes, got the same. It’s a real pain. It has to be taken apart by undoing the all the Torx screws.

Thanks for all the suggestions and i guess i will just have to pull it to pieces again as i was thinking that if i have it replaced with another make Adria may get funny about the 10 year water ingress warranty !.

They'll certainly delete that from the warranty.
If the dirt is getting in via the vent slots can you seal them in some way?

No, they are just a terrible design
