• Ventilation: Utilize the blind ventilation fan in the restroom to ensure proper air circulation and prevent moisture buildup.

7. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the condition and extend the lifespan of your FammyLoft Tiny Home.

• Exterior Cleaning: Clean the exterior panels periodically with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washers that could damage the surface.
• Interior Cleaning: Clean interior surfaces as needed. The PVC floor leather can be cleaned with standard floor cleaning products.
• Snow Removal: In areas with heavy snowfall, regularly remove snow from the roof to prevent excessive load, especially if snow depth approaches 6.6 feet.
• Seal Inspection: Periodically inspect all seals around windows, doors, and panel joints for any signs of wear or damage. Repair or replace as necessary to maintain weatherproofing.
• Plumbing Check: Inspect plumbing for leaks or blockages. Ensure the ventilation fan is operating correctly.
• Structural Check: Annually inspect the steel frame and connections for any signs of corrosion or loosening. Address any issues promptly.

8. Troubleshooting and FAQs

Common Questions:

• Can I hang items on the wall?
  The wall panels are composite with foam in the middle, which means you cannot directly screw into them. For hanging items, use self-adhesive hooks. The load capacity will depend on the specific hook used. Drywall anchors and screws can be used for more stable, long-term installations where appropriate.
• Can I combine two units without a dividing wall?
  Technically, combining two units without a gap between them is not feasible due to their design. There will always be a gap between two separate units.
• What if I experience a leak?
  Check all seals around windows, doors, and panel connections. Ensure proper drainage from the roof and around the base of the unit. If the issue persists, consult a professional.
