Camco RV Roof Vent Cover | Allows High Flow Air Ventilation Into Your RV, Rain or Shine | Easy Installation | Installation Hardware Included, White (40433)

Easy to install great protection from the sun and rain

I recently had to replace the vent covers for my utility trailer...again! The vents I had open up to let air in, and were an somewhat opaque white plastic. I have had to replace them twice in the last 3 years. Recently, I drove my trailer and by the time I had reached my destination (just a few miles), those old vent white covers had disintegrated...again. So I went with these grey vent covers, which cover the entire vent hole opening and then some. They have UV protection so I'm hoping they last, as this is an outdoor trailer that sits or moves in the sun and weather all the time, including harsh Lake Michigan winters. The installation was easy, however the only hard part was up and down the ladder several times carrying the tools and covers. I would recommend a partner for this. They look absolutely amazing! And if you don't want the logo on them, you can just peal it off. I did have one issue, and that was the hardware was missing on one of the covers... I think this was just an Amazon issue, so I didn't lower my rating because of this. Amazon said they couldn't just send me the hardware----I had to send them cover missing the hardware, and they would send me a replacement. Trouble was that the replacement wouldn't come for another 2 days, and we were having thunderstorms here. So that kind of sucked. But all well that ends well, and hopefully this will, as I'm hoping I get more years out of these, then he crappy ones I had before. Oh, and I have no leaking, even though I only have these covering the vent holes on my trailer. Cheers!

RV vent Covers can be very expensive to repair. When damaged by weather, they can also allow water and critters into your unattended RV and that can be extremely costly to take care of. These will fit over most power vents. My Fantastic Fan vents DO hit the bottom side of these covers, but we found that the vent motor and mechanism have a strain function that stops the motor when it encounters resistance. So while your FantasticFan will open maybe 1 inch less, it will still be covered. Installation was not too difficult. I found that the brackets actually aligned with the screws used to install the fantastic fan itself - so I dug out the Lap sealant, removed the screws, put the Camco XLT brackets down, reinstalled the screws and then applied more Lap Sealant. These are slightly less than 10” tall.

I purchased one of these for each of my three RV roof vents and am very pleased with each one. It's been five months since I installed them and they're showing no signs of wear, despite some rainy, windy, freezing, snowy weather. They function very well, letting in no-to-harmless traces of water even with the vent lid cranked fully open. I chose this kind over the Camco 40431 and Maxxair models because I heard that, concordant with the company's claims, they do in fact let more air in than the others. While I can't testify to that (this is the only kind I've tried), they let in enough air to satisfy me, considering I could now leave my laptop under an open vent during a thunderstorm if I felt like it. They were very easy to install. If you can put IKEA furniture together you're smart enough to follow the included instructions. I docked a point for two reasons: (1) a missing hex nut in one of the packages, (2) an issue with the seating. The cover comes in two plastic parts: the bottom one is bolted onto the RV, and the top one "clips" onto the bottom part, and then gets secured with two screws. The first two vents I installed were fine, but the third one's top-part wasn't matching up with the bottom-part either because the plastic was being strained from a poor fit, or because the holes were too small for the screws. I eventually got it on by pushing the screws in very hard with a screwdriver while pinching the top and bottom parts together with the other hand, being very careful not to crack the plastic. If you have the same problem, I wouldn't recommend trying to drill the holes larger, as you'd likely make them too large for a secure fit (remember you'll be flying down the freeway at 60 mph with this thing). Just take your time carefully screwing it in by hand. It wasn't a huge problem, but the company does claim that these vents are easy to clean because of the accessibility that the removable top-part gives. However, because of this defect, I'm not planning to fiddle with it any time soon, no matter how dirty it gets. I think this is overall a great product and the issue doesn't detract enough for me not to enthusiastically recommend it because truthfully, I probably wouldn't have cleaned it anyway and neither would you.

I bought three - $30 total? Are you crazy? They must suck my wife tells me. I have been looking to put vent covers on my new RV since I purchased late Spring 2015. I put several different brands, colors, types in my Wish List and Shopping Cart for that day when I wanted to spend $30+ each. That day came after I was on www.thervgeeks.com and see their suggestion as their favorite products - this Camco 40421 Vent Cover. So I go look - on sale, $10 each.. sold. Installation - watched a few youtube videos, not sure why after I started.... one would have be good enough... the biggest and hardest part... getting all the stuff to the roof... suggestions 1. buy a little silicone not dicor (mainly because your wife thinks you need it). Since you are not drilling into an exposed area you wont need, but always good to silicone over the screws bolts etc to hold them a little more secure 2. use the self tapping screws and make sure to add an extension to your Philips bit. You can do without but the clasp you are attaching has a bolt sticking up about same distance as the chuck on your drill. 3. If you don't go self tapping screw - drilling the hole will take a while (make horrid noise that will make your wife think you dont know what you are doing), putting the bolt in and then trying to tighten the bolt on the inside is tough especially while its cold outside and the vent is wide open. Use the self tapping screws - trust me. Last Tip - make sure wife is tall enough to open up the vents from inside... you will need the vent wide open when you install. If its 30 degrees outside you will want her to open when you are ready... trust me on this.... get her the step stool out before you get on the roof. I like this product a lot... they are wider and shorter than the others. But there is more venting in 3 directs, worth it. They are white and allow light in, I would have liked a darker on for the bedroom, but I can live with the fact I can now leave a vent open while RV'ing in the NW and not worrying is it going to rain. Well the price.. amazing. I installed all three - I am handy but not that handy - from start to finish - in 40 minutes.

Great purchase for my fifth wheel. Although it was on my list of items to do, I didn't install this until I had to start paying for electricity in my trailer. I could immediately feel the difference in the bathroom, the dark cover definitely dropped the temperature during the sunny parts of the day. The exhaust can also be used when it is raining outside now as this blocks any water from entering the trailer. It was fairly easy to install, my trailer was set up to install one of these so I didn't have to drill any holes. It was a small space and a little difficult to start the hardware but other than that, simple and quick. Definitely recommend for every trailer, whether or not you pay for electricity. Update: This has been in use through the summer, about four months. I have left it open many times during rain, some very heavy. I have not noticed any rain enter the RV at all.

As with ALL plastic things mounted on the roof of an RV left in full sun, I expect to replace it in 8-10 years. Look on line for installation videos. Unfortunately after CAMCO sends these to Amazon, packaging is out of their control. My vent cover came on an over size box and arrived undamaged. The hardware package Unfortunately didn't arrive in as good condition. Amazon hot glued it to something (not sure what) and the hot melt glue caused a rip in the package. Some of the washers and nuts were lost in transit. For me this wasn't a problem as I worked at a Fastenal store and purchased what I needed and actually upgraded the nuts to a K lock with star lock washer attached. If you have to replace any hardware, be sure to use stainless steel. I called CAMCO and after a prompt or two, I was connected to a live person right here in the states. Very responsive to my situation and explained that Amazon loses these parts often and he could send out a new pack right away. I told him I had the brackets and bolts and I just purchased the nuts and washers so there was no need, I just wanted to make sure they knew. He was thankful for the information so he could get on Amazon about it. As far as the vent cover itself, it is good quality. I installed a different brand on another trailer. The other one was all one piece. The CAMCO has a removable vent panel that allows cleaning without removing the whole thing. It's slightly lower that the other brand but allows for adequate clearance to open the vent almost all the way. It's made in the U.S.A. so that is an added bonus. I would highly recommend this for any roof top RV vent so to can keep your vent open in light to moderate rains.

Had a bad one on my camper. Took old one off. This was a direct fit. No drilling. Just unbolted the old one and slapped on the new one. Help up good so far
