A piece of trim along the floor below the electrical box in my Rpod 179 is delaminating. I removed the panel cover, but can’t see any source of moisture which would explain what’s happening. The trim seems to be made of plastic-wrapped insulation material which is bursting out of its wrapper.. Has anyone had this happen? Any suggestions?

I've not seen that but if it isn't getting wet from the shower under there perhaps it is overheating when the converter is charging?

Thanks for the suggestion. I don’t use the “shower” much, but I keep the R pod plugged into shore power during storage, so I suppose the converter could be running. I’d like to remove the trim piece and just replace it with wood trim.
