Slide Leak

[jennifer]

WE have an 2011 M22 and the slide has started leaking in the bottom right hand corner. It only seems to happen during significant rain and wind storms. It seems to drip down from the bottom corner of the slide and get in behind the wall beside the slide. We can see where it is but can't determine how to fix it?

Any thoughts?

Hi jennifer,

Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum.

I'm sure other owners will have some advice for you shortly.

Verify that there is caulking on the side of the D seals. It’s common for caulk to be missing down the sides of these and water will come in just as you describe.

Pictures of the slide and location of the water would be helpful

I have picture to upload but have not been able to figure out how. There is only adding a picture from a URL not from my computer. Not sure if it's because I'm new and my posts are still be monitored?

View attachment 62412I was able to do it now!

I put a bead of silicone to direct any water to the outside of the slide box. No more leaks since 2012
