Since inception, the RV industry has been plagued by rain leaks. These leaks are responsible for owner discomfort, unsightly stains, foul odors and countless millions of dollars in damage annually. (Very few RVs are retired from service due to excessive wear and mileage.) The problem has been not in repair of a known leak source, but in locating that source for repair. In spite of this cost and inconvenience, the loyalty of owners to the RV lifestyle has been steadfast and true. This tolerance of such a significant maintenance problem speaks volumes about the passion of RVers for their chosen lifestyle.

The time-honored method for locating rain leaks has been to soak the RV exterior, then search the interior for moisture. This system has some serious shortcomings:

	incoming rainwater often requires prohibitive time to cause visible moisture inside the RV,
	inside moisture is rarely adjacent to the exterior fault that allowed its entrance (water travels),
	pressure soaking a leaking RV introduces water into walls, ceiling etc. where it remains,
	it is time-consuming, wasteful of water resources and messy.

Happily, a sure-fire, practical solution is now available. The Sealtech 430R RV rain leak detection system was developed to meet the industry's need for a cost-effective, reliable method of locating outer skin faults for subsequent repair. The system has been acquired by a number of quality RV manufacturers, dealers and repair facilities throughout North America.
