AC drips over door.

Siesta Sprinter 24ST. Drip Rail.
A problem with the Siesta Sprinter , the AC condensate water seems to end up over the entry door. Water from the roof follows the awning to the area above the door. It also drips through the awning (at thread holes?) and down the side of the RV.

I ran a strip of "EZE RV gutter" along the painted rubber roof edge above the awning rail, starting at the fiberglass cap and ending at the rear awning bracket. The gutter has to angle it's entire length.


I used a "Camco gutter spout with extension" under the rear awning bracket.


Not necessary but I painted part of the gutter to match the roof paint.

Is it possible to level nose to back, a little higher in the front so it drains backwards. Just a thought.

Does not have levelers. The RV is very slightly lower in the front, does not take much. Only a concern when the awning channels water to the area above the door.
I had photos in the initial post.

You can get the leveling blocks and drive up on the front to help with the lower front.

I have a 2015 Siesta Sprinter 24ST, the AC drip accumulation would create spontaneous downpours unexpectedly on us! This looks like something I might be able to handle. I need to review this more, your original photos aren't here so I'll look for them again.
