The Pod maintenance says to have the window/door seals checked.
Any ideas what is involved, price, DIY or problems anyone has had?

Cheers,

Never heard of any issues.  Considering that the oldest pods are only 6 years old I wouldn't expect any yet.  You should check the caulk around the doors, windows, and roof penetrations.

Ours is a 2010, we check it regularly due to the varied temps we have but no problems yet.

I don't know about window seals, never messed with them. The door and side door seals I rub with silicon spray to keep them clean and so they won't stick in place a couple of times a summer. Goose

Thanks, everyone. The "Front Office" has mentioned it a few times.
I just got "Arnie" out of storage today but the furnace is acting up.
Good idea about the silicone spray, we have some of that.
Cheers, ilthyn
