The original powered roof vent was destroyed by hail. The replacement unit arrived quickly and was a perfect fit. Removal of the old one wasn’t too hard, and installing the new one went smoothly. It looks and works great. etrailer is a good company to do business with. I have ordered a variety of criticsl parts from them and have been satisfied with products and service. I’ll be back after the next hail storm.
Everythings great except the butyl tape. It was smashed badly. I hope i have enough usable to complete the job.

Oh gosh, I hate it when it shows up like that. Was there enough usable tape for what you needed?
As usual, my order arrived quickly and complete. I paid 15% more over a nationwide RV chainstore because time and time again etrailer has proved to be a better value. The Maxxfan 5100 and installation kit required only a couple of hours to install. Most of the time was spent erecting a safe support system to get on the roof of my teardrop trailer.
Nozzles were damaged but I think they’ll be fine. These were a replacement for sealant tubes that were damaged/leaking.
Just what I needed to complete the fan installation
Everything needed to do replacement of Fantastic roof vent, one year later still holding and and not leaking. The only problem is the other vent looks old and tired compared to the new one!

Hopefully the other one will hold on strong even if it does look a little old compared to your new one, Stephen!
This kit is mostly complete. The only thing missing is a guy to get up on the roof of my camper who can use a heat gun to soften all of the old sealant and yank out the old vent. Seriously, the kit has everything I’ll need to install the new vent.

Now, I can add a comment about the install materials have stood up: Very well! No leaks!
I watched some videos before doing this so I was ready. The job was straightforward and materials provided worked exactly as advertised. The sealant in particular flowed right where I expected it to. Good job on this folks.

No issues whatsoever. I would do this again if another vent goes.

Made the installation straight forward and easy.
Big shout out to Kimberly @ etrailer for the excellent customer service with helping me place my order. She is extremely proficient with products and guided me in the right direction to make the correct purchase item. On top of that I received the items in just 2 days! Well done.
Great products! plenty of Calk to do the job, and more. Love the fast shipping.
It was easy to install and 1 year later, still no leaks.

Still great all this time later.
Product is great. Only gave 4 stars cause I need time to see how it's going to hold up on the horse trailer and hopefully not leak.
The sealant has a bent nozzle and the tape is crushed on the sides. It may be ok.
Caulk tubs arrived in good condition along with the screws... The butler tape not so much. It had no backing card so was kinda folded in half. Otherwise all is as described and arrived quickly.
I bought this kit to make my roof vent install water tight. The butyl tape and self leveling sealant were exactly what was needed. The kit comes with two sets of screws (which weren’t included with the roof vent), however I didn’t use them as one set was slotted (flathead vice Phillips) and the other (better) were hex head/slotted. I prefer Robertson (square drive) screws and that is what is stock on this trailer so that’s what I used. I would have given 5 stars if the screws that came with the kit were better quality (i.e. weren’t slotted). Regardless, there is no doubt it is water tight. Good kit.
This kit was more than adequate to do the install of the roof vent.
I’ve yet to install it but am looking forward to using it

We're excited for you, Britten! Please let us know what you think once you get the chance to install it.
Great products!
Fast service
Excellent service,fast delivery. My husband installed this in less than 2 hours. Everything needed is included in the kit, very good product!
It’s been one year (1/4/23) since I purchased and installed these products on my 1994 Airstream Trailer. The complete kit was more than adequate for my job given that the trailer had a few other areas requiring attention or needing the self-leveling sealer. I waited for the ideal conditions (weather, temperature, and time of day) before applying the parts and sealing a few other external components. We’ve had several rain events and temperature swings and these products have held up very well. The trailer serves more as an office now which increases the importance for not having leaks!
This was a great choice to select these projects and particularly, from this vendor. They were very responsive and quick to get the order out.
Thanks to George and his Team!
Happy New Year 2024
More than enough tape and caulking to install two 14" x 14" roof vents. Worked well.
There's a generous amount of goo here to go with the butyl tape, maybe enough to do two hatches. My question is about the screws they send which in my case are redundant. They're all slot headed so will have to be pre drilled and installed with a standard blade manual screw drive driver ensuring a labor intensive install or removal.
Always pretty satisfied with etrailer. The only reason I didn't give a 5 star this time is the butyl tape was smashed because of the way it was packed for shipping. The product otherwise arrived in good condition upon initial inspection. I haven't installed the fan yet so can't yet speak to function.
