I can tell you from experience that the holes in the pontoons in the Escape work. I added a under sink water filter & didn't quite get the fitting tight enough. I noticed a slow drip I thought was coming from the street water connection, but on closer examination, was coming from the drain hole. Found the leak & fixed it. While it may help with condensation, the leak was the only time I've seen any water coming out of them.
Donna - I agree completely. But sadly, not everyone is so diligent or knowledgeable in regards maintenance and prevention - it is interesting to see how manufacturers deal with the possibility of poor maintenance - essentially trying to protect us from ourselves...and reduce warranty claims of course .
How’s the wall attached to floor? Seems I missed that. Really think water will seep out between sill plate and floor, not with out some gaps left purposely. After seeing this video I could not be less impressed. Do they leave the edge of the floor exposed to “breath”? Don’t see that as a good idea. Wonder how long that 12lb slide mechanism will last. Watched a guy using his truck and a piece of firewood to push his slide out back in this past summer, don’t remember brand but was surprised that being a smaller trailer it even had a pop out. By the way he liked our 5.0 TA and I gave him the nickel tour. 🙂
