Stuck in South Florida
Our 32 foot motorhome is subject to the hot south Florida sun all year round. I was thinking of purchasing a tarp with UV protection to throw over the TPO roof but I am concerned with moisture that may accummulate under it and the problems that may result. 

I would appreciate any opinions you may have as to whether or not I should use the tarp to protect the roof.  Many thanks.
 
I don't see any real benefit from doing that, but I don't see much harm either. It will be hot under the tarp, though.

EPDM and TPO are formulated for many years of service in the sun, but I guess putting a tarp over it will reduce the cleaning chore later.
