Wet wall

24 ft 4 winds class c. Outer corner wall of bed is wet quite a bit. Staying in ft pierce, mid florida has been cold but we've been using an electric heater for heat. That corner continues to be wet. Any ideas.

Condensation due to lack of insulation in that corner.

Could there be a bit of a leaky roof problem going on?

I think I would need a better description before rendering a diagnosis. Has it been raining? Is it wet or just damp? Is the bed wet or just the wall? How about the ceiling...any stains?

I think that we DO need a little bit better description of the situation...

Welcome to the forum! Are you out camping, or full timing in your RV?

More info will help. It doesn't rain a lot in the winter in Florida, but it has been chilly lately. How many humans and pets are staying in your Four Winds? Even two people breathing overnight in a closed camper can fog the windows.

It seems crazy when the air is cold outside, but you may need to open a vent a little to let some of that moisture out.

While I agree that excess humidity could be the issue: there was no mention of fogged windows...
(That's what got me to thinking about the condition of the roof...)

2 people, no rain, foggy window wall and corner . No wet mattress. Guess condensation could be it. Did it one night when it rained. Most of our camping has been in summer with a/c. Just retired and have been at ft. Pierce for 2 months. Little chilly a few nights. Thanks for help.

Condensation it is!
ry opening a window a little bit, and add an extra blanket to the bed...
(Or just snuggle a bit closer!)
