Maxx Air I+ Vent Cover

Ordered three to cover existing vent covers that perpetually degraded from UV exposure, even though the trailer was tarped for 6 months over the winter…..easy installation, place the cover over the vent, approximating a centered position, this is the most time consuming part , mark the locations through the vent holes on the roof, place the angle brackets over the roof markings and this will locate the position to drill on the vent frame. The washers that go on the inside of the vent frame may be problematic if you have a plastic frame protruding up the interior sides of the vent…..I found the washers fit by placing them on first, sliding the washer between the plastic interior trim and vent wall, place the screw from the outside in through the drilled hole through the washer, then expansion washer, then secure with supplied nut. The positioning and drilling take most of the time, securing with nuts is easy. Apply anti-seize paste to the outside bolts securing the cover to the angle brackets and do not over tighten to avoid cracking the cover.

I've used these Maxxair vent covers on my other RVs, so I already knew about the quality and efficiently of these covers. These are a must to keep out the rain from soaking your RV if you keep the vent open. I installed them myself and the hardest part of the job is crawling up on top of the RV. Take your time, follow the instructions and they install easily and securely. two tips to make life easier for you, when you set the cover down the first time to measure (eyeball) prior to marking it, lift it up about 2 inches to check and make sure your brackets will contact the metal in the RV roof vent. Next, when you measure for the original fit, close the RV vent so the new Maxxair cover fits easily over the existing RV vent. Then, after you have your marks, then open the RV vent fully to access the metal rim of the RV vent to drill. (it's nice to have a helper in the RV to raise and lower the RV went or it's you, up and down the ladder.

Excellent Product ... Perfect Fit ... Great Quality ... Very Easy To Install.

La instalación es complicada, a pesar del instructivo se requieren materiales especiales como por ejemplo una claraboya que sea de metal ya que va anclada a la misma y si es de plástico se puede romper.

These items were delivered quickly and of good quality. I chose white instead of black to not limit the light coming in my vents. The instructions were easy to follow and my first trip driving in a torrential downpour showed that they did not leak into my open vent. I love the idea of being able to leave my vents open when it is hot outside and I am off hiking. I was a bit unnerved to have to drill four holes in the metal sides of my existing vents for each vent cover. I will check the nuts and screws occasionally to make sure they have not come loose. I found that my job of centering the vent cover over the vent was made easier by drawing lines on my roof. I considered vent covers for quite some time and found that these were exactly what I expected. A good purchase at a fair price.
