We bought a used 2010 R-pod 173. The interior has a strong chemical smell. I'm guessing it's coming from the materials used to build it. Just curious if any of you guys had a similar problem? I can't keep the windows open when in storage, for obvious reasons. I can only leave the roof vent cover open when the fan is running. With the fan stopped, the black holding tank smell goes right into the interior because some dumb ingineer placed the black tank vent right next to the fan opening. The black tank is empty and has been flushed but it still has some smell although this has nothing to do with the chemical smell in the trailer.
So far, I have not been able to figure out how to get rid of the smell. Perhaps some of you guys were able to remedy this problem.
BTW, I used to have a 94 Terry trailer (long time ago) but it did not have this problem. I guess the R-Pod manufacturer found even cheaper materials to save manufacturing costs. Who cares about off-gasing problem, right?
