Preparing Your Seacan for Different Weather Conditions

At Wheelers RV & Boat Storage, we understand the importance of keeping your belongings safe and secure, no matter the occasion. Utilizing Seacan containers for storage offers unparalleled protection and versatility. Here’s how you can adapt your Seacan storage to various weather conditions, ensuring your prized possessions remain safeguarded year-round.

Protecting Against Moisture and Mildew

Spring brings increased humidity and varying temperatures, which can lead to condensation inside your Seacan. To combat moisture, ensure your Seacan is well-ventilated. Wheelers RV & Boat Storage recommends using moisture absorbers or installing a small, solar-powered fan to circulate air.

Reflecting Heat and Ensuring Ventilation

During the hotter months, protecting your stored items from extreme heat, which can damage interiors and sensitive components, is crucial. Opt for reflective paint or covers for your Seacan to deflect sunlight. Consider installing a vent on each end of the container to create a cross breeze, significantly reducing interior temperatures.

Pest Proofing and Weather Sealing

As the weather cools, pests look for warm places to nest. Ensure your Seacan’s doors and ventilation openings have screens to keep pests out. Check the container’s seals and weather-stripping at the beginning of the season to prevent water ingress from rain and protect against the colder air of the upcoming winter. Wheelers RV & Boat Storage offers maintenance checks to help identify potential vulnerabilities in your Seacan.

Insulation and Access

Winter poses the challenge of protecting against freezing temperatures and snow accumulation. Insulating your SeaCan can provide an extra layer of protection for sensitive items. Foam board or spray foam are effective options that don’t significantly reduce interior space. Ensure your Seacan is accessible throughout the winter by placing it in a location easily cleared of snow and ice. Wheelers RV & Boat Storage ensures clear access paths to all storage units throughout winter.
