Today we're going to be taking a look at the replacement dome seal for Ventline Ventadome trailer roof vents. Now this seal is going to keep water from entering between the dome and the base when the vent is closed. Nice, flexible, durable design. It's going to work with Ventline vents manufactured after 2008. It will also fit older-style Ventline roof vents as long as there's a rounded dome. The weatherproof seal simply does what it's intended to do; it weatherproofs your roof vent. You're going to get one seal with this part number.
The overall length is 52" long. It's made in the USA. Now, I do want to point out that at the bottom of this seal, it's going to have that split design right there. That's the portion that gets pushed down onto the vent, so when you're replacing your seal, this portion right here gets pushed onto the vent lip, and the seal will push right on. I do want to recommend using some adhesive to get the seal to stay put and last a longer time or stay in place for a longer time.
A few dots of silicone sealant will work really well for this replacement part. That's not included, so if you need some of that, it will need to be provided separately. That's going to do it for today's look at the replacement dome seal for Ventline Ventadome trailer roof vents.

This is a great replacement for faded or yellowed dome seals. It takes a little work to install but well worth the effort
Thanks for etrailer's willingness to answer my questions. The BV0554-01 was the perfect replacement for the dome that was on my trailer even though the dimensions of my opening were 13" x 13" not the 14" x 14" as your web paged suggested. The dome was exactly like the original equipment one on my trailer that cracked. I ordered the white one even though there was a question in my mind whether it would let enough light in. I was tempted to order the smoked one. The white one lets in plenty of light. Frankly I am not sure that the smoked one would allow more light in. The new dome was easily installed. I think mine is probably missing some sort of a nylon roller on the crank arm. At any rate, I did not have to remove the screen and the crank assembly to replace the dome. I simply opened the dome all the way and was easily able to adjust the dome and pop out the crank arm. Maybe not having the nylon roller allowed me to do that, I don't know. Sliding the old dome hinge out was simple and sliding in the new one was equally easy. I also replaced the dome gasket (BVD0455-01) that was dried out and cracked. That was also easy, but was a little more tedious sliding it around the curves. In total the repair took less than 10 minutes. All in all, my etrailer experience was excellent. They quickly answered my questions. In fact Jameson Clark responded to my questions at 7:00 p.m. on New Year's Eve. I was amazed. Give this guy a raise. He understands what excellent customer service is. Thank you Jameson. I ordered the dome and the gasket on Tuesday Jan. 5. They shipped it out on the same day. I did not pay for expedited shipping but instead opted for economy shipping. the order arrived on Saturday Jan 9. I recommend etrailer. I will surely use them again.
Perfect fit, quick shipping, great comm unication.
The skirt that goes down over the lip on the vent was not quite as deep as the original nor was the seal surface quite as high as the original, but it seems to fit in such a manner that it will be effective. Installed fairly easily after being trimmed to length. Reasonable value decent quality and reasonable shipping time.
They have continued to provide good seals and am pleased that I used this material to seal all of my vents.
eTrailer.com always has what I need, and shipping is always reasonable and timely.
Thanks for having the seal in stock. I couldn't find it at my local RV store.
Initially I bought one, just in case it didn't fit or wasn't right, and when that worked well I bought two more. just got them today so I can't say I've replaced them yet, but i'm sure they will be great.
The product was exactly what I needed. A little extra length on the seal made for a perfect fit. I took the time to completely clean the old sealant from the metal flashing using a dremel tool wire wheel. I applied sealant while installing the new seal, took my time on the corners, didn't have to stretch it at all. My old seal had pulled away from the rounded corner. The Vent is now water tight, and looks great. Excellent product, fit perfectly and was shipped quickly. etrailer gets an A+.
Mike - 08/17/2017It fit perfectly and seals
Fast delivery and simple to install. Tiny rib on side goes to the outside as per the etrailer instructions. Did 3 vents in about 15 min., off with the old and on with the new. Trimmed about 1/4 to 3/8 inch off each length for a good fit with scissors. Very pleased.
These were perfect to replace old dry seals on a 2005 Forest River Sandpiper 5th wheel. They are the correct length and easy to install.
Perfect fit for the original. Only needed to trim a little.
Very thin gasket compared to the original it was replacing. Had to be glued in place for it to stay put
This was a new waterproof gasket for the vent/skylight in our trailer. It was a little wider than the original. I used weather stripping automotive glue (like a thick contact cement) on the metal lip of the vent and waited until it was tacky and then carefully pressed the new gasket on the metal lip, trimming the length to fit flush--end-to-end for the gasket. This provided a new gasket all the way around the metal flange/opening. After 24 hours the glue was firm, flexible and waterproof. It held the gasket on well and the vent/skylight never did leak.
Product as described, only thing missing was glue to hold in place, a little disappointed this was not included, that is why one star deducted.
Easy to install and fit very well. A good product
removal of the old seal and replacement of the new seal, piece of cake
Good quality. Delivered on time.
From the time I dialed the number for etrailer to the last screw I put in after the replacements I have nothing but positive to say in this review. First of all after dealing with so many internet companies over the past decade I judge a company by it's customer service. They may have the 1st class product at the lowest price but if their customer service stinks it's a thumbs down for the company and I won't do business with them again. etrailer is a top notch company in every way. When I called, I was directed to the right department. It only took a few seconds to be connected to a human. The representative (Rebecca) helping me was not only welcoming and friendly she was completely knowledgeable about their products, got me set up with the right replacement set and seals at half the cost of what I was looking at online. I even tried to correct her on the price. Shipping!! I called on Wednesday, it was delivered on Thursday. It helps that I'm in the same state, but seriously. When the mail guy brought it my husband said, "Didn't you just hang up the phone from ordering that?" Impressed! The quality of the replacement product was equal to the quality of the original pieces I was replacing. Installation was fast and simple. I had 2 vent screen holders and vent seals replaced in less than an hour. The only complication I had was when I put the bathroom vent back together I had the wiring on the outside. Didn't look right to me, called etrailer, with in just a couple of minutes I had instructions and got it straightened out. I've never tackled this kind of job before. My husband was working and it was something I figured I could do. It was a breeze with their help! We'll definitely be return customers.
Fast shipping and good quality
Another product that arrived and fit as stated. Replaced my old rotted seal in five minutes. Fit my vent perfect, no trimming necessary.
I let soften in sun a bit. Added a touch of caulk. Boom. Done
Great replacement for stock unit.
Great service
