Rv cover for Solera 24S

I have winter stored my rv for the last several years but now the price of storage has skyrocketed. So I need to purchase a good cover. I live in Vancouver (known for the winter rain) so I need a breathable and durable cover. Can anyone recommend a rv cover retailer. I would rather ask you folks than get the hype from a sales people.
Thanks

I've never had one but I read so many posts here about rv covers. It seems ADCO covers are most people wanted. If you search "rv cover" here you will find lot of comments. Three weeks ago I've ordered rv carport because storage fee is too much. In the long run buy your own is much cheaper.

Are you looking for a fabric cover? I had a carport cover built by west coast metal building they are in Salem OR. Did a good job mine is 12 wide wish it was more 26 long and 12 high. Wish it was 30 long. Should have gone with 15x30x12.

Petersb, do you have enough room for slide out with your 12 x 12 x 26? I've ordered 12 x 12 x 31 from the same place. I could get wider but assured by them on plenty of space for 2401R. 3 weeks ago they said 6 to 8 weeks, so soon I will get it. Full 3 side panels.

Raptor I have a 24s my slide is on the side goes out about 30" I don't think I could put my slide out I've never tried. If I got real close on the passenger side it might work.

Just bought my 2nd Addco. Great covers IMO.

I bought a brand new Adco cover for my Solera 24S . I have never used or unpacked it. I am going to sell it. I purchased it from Camping World. Send me a message if you have any interest in it.

This is what i did. Not the best pics but the only ones I can find. Its 18wX30lX12H, I readyed the spot and had the pad poured and finished then had the cover put up. Total was about $4500 that's $2430 for cover and $1400 for pad and balance for water and power.

RV Cover

We have a 2013 Solera that we store outside and are considering a cover. We live in Florida, about 50 miles south of Tampa. I am concerned about mold and mildew with a cover in Florida. Anyone have experience using fabric covers in Florida, or other humid locations?

Thanks,

George

Raptor.
I finally got to put my MBS back in the carport after having 6 in of concrete poured last week and to answer your last post yes you will be able to put your slide out it will be tight but it will work. I forgot that the 24 r. Has two slides. How long do you have to wait to get yours put up.?

Peter, as I remembered you had concrete in after carport was up? It should be here soon I hope. I didn't have concrete just gravels. Why did you change your mine to add concrete? I notice even ran plate compactor down pretty good, MH is heavy enough to sink just a little.

I had always wanted to have the concrete done if you have to crawl under for any reason the concrete is better also my base under the gravel was all sand or blow sand and I. Would end up with ruts where it would settle and sink a bit. Not any more.plus I don't track any rocks in the Mbs getting in.
