Since you can’t always count on the weather, you need to count on your camper to handle anything. With folding wall technology, setting up this RV is a piece of cake, rain or shine. Our hard-sided pop-up camper is built for maximum durability in all weather while still coming out at half the weight of its competitors.
A waterproof camper needs to be built with rugged efficiency to withstand years of rain, which is why we created our Cube Series camper with aluminum, resilient composites, alloys, and renewable resources–and absolutely no canvas. Water is the most destructive force in nature: if it can wear away the rock of a canyon, it can find its way into an inadequately-sealed camper. The Cube Series Camper Keeps The Rain Off Rather than wrestling with putties, sealants, and constant repairs, the best thing you can do is invest in a genuinely waterproof camper from the start. But worrying about water infiltrating your belongings is hardly something you want to think about while enjoying the great outdoors. A poorly-designed camper with inadequately treated wood or fiberglass insulation may absorb water you can’t see, causing severe structural issues. Rain is especially likely to infiltrate a poor seal while you’re on the road with water pelting your camper at highway speeds. However, a leak in your camper shell can have longer-lasting effects than a couple of miserable nights as water wreaks havoc on your furniture and belongings. Water Damage Can Destroy Your Belongingsīeing damp and cold is certainly enough to ruin any camping trip. No matter how thoroughly you seal your camper, there’s always the risk of springing a fresh leak after the next long haul.
The problem is that even the best sealants are subject to the same punishment that conquered the camper’s original hardware.
When faced with leaks in their camper shell, many people will try to patch the gaps as they appear. Getting a tight, waterproof seal on a structure that can survive long-term travel on even the smoothest roads is tough. And hard-sided shells aren’t immune to these problems either: a more rigid frame doesn’t stop the panels from flexing from road vibration and wind force while driving. Add the normal vibrations and wind force from normal driving conditions on top of that, and you have a recipe for a leaky camper. Over time, this constant movement can cause seams and seals to weaken and eventually fail. Because pop-up tent campers need to fold and unfold, their materials are designed to flex and shift. Why is it so hard to find a waterproof camper? Plenty of brands make this claim, but the reality often falls short. The Challenges of a Truly Waterproof Camper Shell While some people choose to break out the sealant and patch the leaks themselves, the only way to keep the rain off without constant effort is by finding a camper built to stay waterproof from the beginning. The construction of most canvas pop-up campers means that few of them stay waterproof for long, leading to leaks and headaches. Unfortunately, finding a genuinely waterproof camper is easier said than done. When on the road to your next adventure, you need a camper that will keep you warm and dry through all kinds of weather.
