Condensation under matress

[Donstar]

I was surprised to see the amount of condensation found under the mattresses in our new twin bed 2108 trailer. We had four cool nights while camping over the Easter weekend and had to prop our mattresses every morning to dry. I understand the cause but find it strange that this problem would exist in a 2019 "Extreme Weather Package" equipped trailer. I've read about some products to reduce this but was wondering what strategies you use to prevent this problem?

The new Views have little plastic things that allow air under the mattress. I believe it was for that issue. I just tried to find a link for you but can't. Go check out a new one and take a look at it. Basically the storage under is colder than your temp so condensation can form. There are air gap products to use but these were 4" x 4" or so squares that lift the mattress and allow air under.

Thanks. I think the View offers the Froli sleep system option. This will allow for ventilation and a "box spring" type function.

Had much the same problem years ago with a small hunting trailer. Condensation forming beneath mattresses after cool nights use . I got some alumiroll type insulation( for hot water tank use) layed a length between mattress and base and no more problem
