    Hi all,
    I'm sure these questions have been asked lots of times before butheres goes.
    I park my van outside at the side of the house (no cover)
    Should I put it on the blocks to raise the front of it
    Should I leave my van plugged in over the winter months
    Should I use a electric dehumidifier, my concern with this is am I just pulling the moisture from outside the van as well.
    Thanks in advance

    I use mine in the winter so I don't have any of those issues.
    If you leave a van standing though keep an eye to your batteries they discharge much faster in the cold. Wherever possible keep them above 12.4v to prevent cell damage.

    I think a dehumidifier is a good idea for a couple of hours a day.
    These usually need the temp to be at a certain level 15 deg or something to work.It will suck in outside air but it will do the inside air first me thinks.
