Storage Cover for PUT

[bchbum68]

I have an 1989 Coleman Sequoia and I need to store it outside.  I live in Arizona, so I am looking for a cover that can protect from the heat as well as the rain we get in late summer.  Any suggestions?

I very rarely see a pop-up stored with a cover.  I see lots of them stored without covers, including pop-ups over 20 years old.  

I store mine outside without a cover.  It sees 101F and 75% humidity in the sun in the summer.  It sees -24F and 25% humidity in the winter.  It sees several feet of snow, and heavy wind-driven rain.  It has been hailed on (pea-sized hail) on five occasions.

Never regretted storing it without the cover.

Like Austin, I have seen popups stored outside all over the country with no covers....I stored our new Niagara outside for two years before getting a metal shed put up in the back yard for it.. Never had a problem of any kind........

I just got one and it's great, about $60 shipped. Be sure to allow for an AC unit if you have one.

Hope this helps.  :usflag:

Our unit has survived five years of outside storage without a cover and remains in excellent condition.  If I recall correctly, the Coleman manual said do not cover it.  The ill effects areheat build up, and moisture condenses between the PU and the tarp, and stays there.  
 
The only thing we do for winter storage is set the tounge jack as low as it will go to help water run off.

Fleetwood says not to cover the ABS roof.  IF you use a breathable cover it will not hurt to cover it.

YES! The cover I mentioned above is the "breathable" type and YES that is very important. You are very correct tlhdoc  .
