Had one for a previous van. Didn't cause any condensation or damp problems. Make sure the van is clean before fitting it and don't put anything over the windows before fitting, some people used to suggest putting clingfilm on them but it destroys the plastic.
I found them a right faff to get on and off, the extending poles they provide bend very easily when putting it on. I gave up with it when I changed van and haven't bothered since as the van got damaged in storage and I didn't see the damage until I took the cover off. By then it was too late to check what had happened on the site cctv.

Posted on 19/06/2020 18:18 by RiggersWe have found ours to be easy to fit and it really protects the van whilst being towed. We remove when the van is in storage.

Hi BrianJosie, we have a fully fitted easy fit cover and a towing cover from Protec. Both have been excellent and done their job well. We use the full cover in storage over the winter (4/5 months) and everything has been fine no issues with damp or condensation, the caravan stays perfect inside. We use decorating poles (for paint rollers) now to put cover on as the provided ones tend to bend if pulled at the wrong angle. We have used covers for 8 years now and wouldn’t be without one. The towing cover works well too; we have the towing jacket type with the front zip, which is a bit tricky to get started but otherwise very good. Good company to deal with too.
