Should I cover my RV this winter?

You will definitely hear varying opinions on this. My two cents, if you can’t get an indoor facility to store it in, then I would recommend covering it, especially in Wisconsin. They can be a pain to get on and off, which I suspect is the main reason people don’t use them, but they do protect your rather large investment.

I personaly would if I were you, especially living in the north. Like @ia_camper said, they can be tricky to get on and off so if you’re not comfortable getting on the roof of your RV check out this article I wrote: https://camperfaqs.com/how-to-install-rv-cover-without-getting-on-roof. The easier the process to get it on the more likely you are to do it 🙂

Also, make sure you measure correctly and get one that fits right. Check this out: https://camperfaqs.com/how-to-measure-for-rv-cover

Like I state in that article, “The cover should fit loosely over your RV for easy installation, then you should tighten it with the straps to prevent it from flapping in the wind, which can cause damage to the exterior of your RV and the cover itself.”

I’ve never covered mine. I give it a good wax in Fall and make sure to keep snow off it during winter. I check my seals often and they have always looked good.
