Darco Questions

What would happen if a camper didn't have a Darco membrane underneath?

The reason I ask this is because I wonder if it sometimes does more harm than good. My old 89 Coleman pop-up didn't have it, and that floor was solid as a rock when I sold it (27 years old).

We looked at a 3 year old R-Pod before buying our T-1700 last year and the whole floor was pretty much rotted out. That's telling me that wherever it leaked, the water had laid in the membrane to cause all that rot. Maybe I'm wrong.

When we first started looking at travel trailers I noticed they all have some form of it. Some seemed pretty cheap (unlike our Sunline) and I thought maybe it was just to hide the shoddy workmanship [emoji3]

Or maybe the floor in my old pop-up was marine grade (it was OSB) and manufacturers today can't afford to use it.
