    It depends, if you are going to use a fabricated RV cover, covering is definitely recommended. If you plan to use a tarp, it would be better for you to leave your RV under the baking sun indefinitely! Fabricated RV covers such as the ones we carry in our parts department are made of materials which breathe and let the heat and moisture escape. RV covers such as the Polypro III Deluxe model made by Classic Accessories feature three layers of polypropylene on the roof and around the top corners. What this means for you is that as the wind blows and shifts your RV cover across the corners of your roof, these three layers rub against each other instead of rubbing the corners of your roof. This feature is vital in avoiding future costly repairs to your roof. This particular model also features zippered access side panels which allow easy access to the storage areas on your RV. Whatever you do, DO NOT COVER YOUR RV WITH A TARP! We see people all the time who bring their RV in to our service department with delaminating decals, rubbed roof corners, and several other tarp-covering related problems. The money you save by buying a tarp instead of a fabricated RV cover you will only have to turn around and spend on repairs!
