Mk6 needs venting

Postby iiyama » Sun Dec 20, 2009 1:28 pm

Guys, now the colder weather is here Ive noticed that there is a lot of condensation in the load area of the van, especially the roof which is dripping wet.

Ive had a look around a van vents but are there any that are better then others? Anyone fitted one or is it best to have them fitted? Will one be enough for a LWB Hitop?

All advice welcome!

Ta!

Thanks for the offer but I would prefer one that is not electrically operated!

There's a company called Furneaux Riddall just round the corner from work in Pompey that do marine and automotive bits and bobs and they've got these wee solar powered jobbies, they're brilliant.
