Bedroom Dust

we have a 16 dutchstar 4313. we keeo noticing dust in the bedroom area. we thought it might be from the fws that needed to be adjusted in. we had that done and the dust continues. any thoughts on the cure could it be a result of the engine fan dust storm thanks

If you have dust in the bedroom that's getting in from the outside the solution is this:
Locate every opening/space/crack where air can enter and seal/caulk every one closed.

BTW what is "fws"?

Walter as long as your FWS is closed and locked and seals are tight should not be getting the dust from the FWS..
This link may help for other things that can cause your problem as others have had.

007 I hope you're still around if I end up with a DS in a few years (current choice is either the DS 4369 or Entegra Anthem). IMO you are very helpful and wanted to thank you regardless of the brand I buy. Thanks for the time you provide us.

Good luck will keep a watch for you.

Walterhess - does your FWS have open-cell foam blocks bolted to the bottom at each end near the paddles for the slide lock mechanism? Newmar put them on to help seal up the lower ends of the FWS.
