If you're thinking about replacing your RV roof vent or just installing a roof vent cover you may want to watch this video before doing so. Note: Before replacing your roof vent make sure you check your opening size & roof depth prior to ordering.

We installed vent covers on our last RV and there are several advantages for doing so and its so easy to do: The roof vent cover will allow you to have your standard and fan vents open if its raining outside for movement of fresh air; It allows you to have roof vents open for fresh air flow inside the RV while driving without damaging your roof vent cover from the winds; And to protect your roof vent from UV damage.
