In the world of leisure vehicles, Bürstner motorhomes are renowned for their quality and durability. Our aim for our customers is to make them feel at home. One important aspect that must be checked regularly is the tightness of motorhomes and caravans. A water ingress test ensures that the vehicle is permanently protected against moisture and water ingress. Below we take a look at the benefits of a leak test by trained specialists, the certificate that is issued for a successful test, the possible value retention of the vehicle and the weatherproof guarantee extension that Bürstner offers.
Advantages of a leak test
- Increased safety: A leak test ensures that any leaks that could lead to moisture damage are detected. This ensures a #LIVABLE FEEL in the long term.
- Preservation of vehicle value: A regular water ingress test preserves the value of the motorhome, as potential buyers can be sure that the vehicle is weatherproof with a complete inspection history.
- Avoidance of costly repairs and extension of service life: Early detection of leaks can prevent expensive repairs. The water ingress test makes it possible to rectify problems in good time before they get worse. The motorhome lives longer.
When it comes to conducting leak tests, a trained technician possesses the necessary expertise to perform the task according to factory specifications. This minimizes potential sources of error and maximizes the accuracy of test results.
The resulting proof
The generated proof of the leak test is a valuable document. This certification is issued only if the test was without any findings or if identified leaks were permanently repaired.
Preserving value & securing resale price
Regular leak tests contribute to maintaining the value of the vehicle. Prospective buyers are willing to pay a higher price for a vehicle that has undergone scheduled leak testing.
Manufacturer’s leak guarantee extension
Bürstner relies on the leak integrity of its motorhomes and caravans, offering an annual leak guarantee extension. This provides additional security for owners, as any potential leaks—despite careful material selection and production—are repaired free of charge during the warranty period
