The camper is a considerable investment and when we park it, sometimes even for months and especially in the presence of bad weather, we would like it to be safe. A camper cover must be effective and of high quality, it must protect it from atmospheric agents and from dust and UV rays.
On the market you can find so many types of cover for campers, however you need to pay attention to that the models are resistant, breathable to avoid the formation of mold and quality, so that the bodywork with the relative painting and the gaskets connected to the roof are perfectly protected.
Motorhome cover: what is it for?
The cover for the camper is useful for protecting the vehicle, especially in long periods in which it is not used and has to stand still, it could be subjected to premature wear.
Rain, wind, snow and sun, as well as dust and dirt pollution can damage it to the point of even requiring repainting and major maintenance to get it back on track.
When we buy a camper and do a substantial shopping, we have the same desire as for a new car, that is to protect them for as long as possible from bad weather, humidity, UV rays and pollution: all phenomena that can cause considerable damage to the bodywork, fading the paint and quickly ruining the vehicle. Just think that campers are usually painted in a white that often tends to turn yellow due to the sun or drips caused by rain; those with glossy, fiberglass or metallic bodywork tend to be even more delicate. Insects and rodents can also cause significant damage. You spend a considerable amount of money to buy a camper, so covering it effectively with a quality tarp is a necessary conscious action to avoid premature wear.
What are the advantages of motorhome covers?
Fixed covers for motorhomes are often prohibitive, not only in terms of costs, but also because they require a fairly large space available in which to park the vehicle and sometimes municipal permits are required.
Campervan covers with canvas solve the problem and therefore bring a whole series of advantages, starting with handling.
The integral sheets cover the entire structure including the wheels, while the partial ones only cover the most exposed parts such as the roof and the upper part of the sides, where the sealed joints particularly subject to wear are located.
These covers for campers are made with stratified materials that guarantee efficient coverage and protection of the vehicle; they are quite practical, space-saving when closed and easy to use.

How to choose an RV cover? Key features
The cover for the camper is an accessory of fundamental importance to protect the vehicle when it is not in use and to be considered of quality it must possess several fundamental characteristics.
Dimensions
The cover of the camper must have the correct dimensions, i.e. be such as to fit from the top of the roof up to enveloping the lower part; too large a tarp will not hold tightly and will require the use of additional ropes.
Materials
The material depends on which type and protection you need most and which climate prevails. Some materials protect the vehicle from dust, others are suitable for snow and frost.
The ideal ones are mixed waterproof on top and breathable on the sides, in order to limit condensation. The tarp must be waterproof at the top to protect it from water in the event of heavy rain; this tends to accumulate in the center of the roof and it is important to create an outlet towards the outside.
Finishes
The side zips are useful features to be able to access the car in case of need and without removing the entire cover. The anchoring areas must be made more robust with metal rings and triangles of resistant fabric to cope with strong winds.
Measures
The measures are important, usually there are two or three dimensions; the tarp must fit perfectly and some companies make custom covers.
