The supports may be a little of overkill at this time, but I would be leaning on installing them.  It wouldn't hurt anything.]]> Thu, 26 Jun 2025 08:28:14 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16227&PID=154644#154644 Question After Water Problem : We had a spring thaw incident... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=16227&PID=154643#154643 Author: BobTheZee

We had a spring thaw incident with ice dams causing water to come in via the roof vent fan. The water traveled to the right side wall then along the wall to the back corner. We were out of town for some time so it wasn't discovered right away. Things were wet long enough for the floor to curl down about 1/4" to 1/2" along the right edge.  I removed the underbelly plastic sheet and some of the thin plywood between the frame and edge to let water out, used a fan and lots of time to let everything dry well, reglued a thin piece of wood to the beadboard, and recovered with underbelly tape.  The inside floor is strong & solid, no soft spots, no sign/smell of mold, vinyl flooring is still solidly attached to the plywood subflooring. Early in my repair efforts I used a board and hydraulic jacks to slightly raise the edge of the outside wall to see if that curl in the floor would bend back flat (or flatter) - no change at all in 48 hrs. 

So in short everything seems "good."  My questions: Am I done? Is the floor strong enough in that area? It sure seems to be. I could add some triangular supports from the frame to the outside edge of the floor but why do that if it isn't needed.  What say you all?
