    Moderator Note: The post below was extracted from the How do you know you have a water leak? thread at https://gdrvowners.com/forum/exterio...e-a-water-leak FYI, this Extech M0290 Pinless Moisture Meter and Ir Thermometer is $592 (yikes!) on Amazon as of 22 Apr 22. https://www.amazon.com/Extech-MO290-...002ZHZQF0?th=1 -Howard

    Followup on this earlier question about moisture in the walls . . .

    From Clay Smith (Foreman at the Grand Design Factory Service Center) they use the pinless moisture meter shown in the attached picture. A reading above 35% indicates to them that there is moisture in the wall that should not be there and needs to be resolved.

    There is also some good (but rather wandering) "moisture meter" discussion in this thread. ​​​​​​https://gdrvowners.com/forum/exterio...industry/page2

    Its not cheap. Wonder how a lower cost model would work on our RV skins? A side by side comparison would be great.
