The condensation occurs when the air inside the trailer is warmer than the
outside and the roof (and the other surfaces) becomes cold. The roof gets
it worst because the warmest air inside is against the roof. This mostly
happens in the evening after the sun disappears. The way to stop it
happening is to stop the air inside becoming warm, or at least allow the
warm air inside to escape quickly.
