Carpet wet/damp

I have 2017 jayflight 27bhs and only use it 6 times. After sitting all of last year, I decide to use it this year. 3 weeks ago i went through everything and all good. Today I decide to setup for next weeks trip, I pull the slides out and the carpet is wet. What’s weird is that when the slide is in, the carpet is underneath the slide, do I have a leak somewhere or it’s moisture? It’s been really humid and hot.


On the picture it’s the part of carpet toward the back but only half the carpet is wet. Ceiling have no leaks

I would have a look a the seals around the slide out. Based on your picture, specifically the back side of the slide out. (May also want to check underneath. Hopefully there is no damage there. Also if you do not have slide toppers, (well even if you do) make sure you check the top of the slide for debris before pulling the slide in. Sometimes a twig or something can get caught under the seal. It can also cut the seal which is a bigger issue.

Seals are all good. What I did notice was the sink is right next to where it’s wet and I saw water underneath. Pretty sure there’s a leak from
One of the hoses

Do you have a blank tank flush? If so, that line has an anti-siphon valve. Those valves are frequently reported to leak.

I have a flush out tank if that’s what your referring. I never use it, I did forget to winterize that tank

Probably not your problem, but for what it might be worth, I had water leaking out from under our kitchen sink and into the carpet on our 276BHSW when I first started filling the freshwater tank to sanitize it out of winter storage, and discovered I had a hole in the fill spout hose. I took the fill spout apart, cut about a half-inch off the hose, re-installed it, no more leaks. I think I may have poked a hole in the hose with a long pointed funnel that I used to put bleach in for sanitizing.

Anyone know wha this is? I look underneath the camper and saw 2 of the same color hose, might be some sort of low drain or vent. I’m suspecting the leak might be from there. I hook up water and ran water through the sink and didn’t see any leak.

This is the bathroom sink.
