MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat - Manual Lift - 10 Speed - Smoke
Nothing but issues. It has worked fully for maybe 3 months in the last two years. At multiple times an owner of these will experience the beeping and blinking green light issue. You’ll be told “oh, moisture in the mother board” so, you replace the PC board and add electrical waterproofing (which voids your warranty). That holds for a while then the beeping and blinking starts again “oh, its gotta be the current draw, the fans require a solid 12v”. Add a DC/DC stabilizer to each fan should settle the issue. Nope, only another two month fix. You can reset these fans easily by just disconnecting the power to them and that seems to get some time but the issue of your fan not going above low and the beeping and green light will inevitably return. there seems to be a lot of people who experience this exact issue leading me to believe it’s a quality control issue at and is not being addressed. I would not recommend these fans to anyone.
This roof vent is a real game changer for us. It allows us to open and vent our teardrop, even in the rain. Design is sleek. Lock works well. Fan is excellent and quiet.

Ventline Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent - Manual - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" - Smoke
So far it's holding up with no leaks. Kind of on the flimsy side comparing to the one removed but easy to install. Couldn't use the trim ring inside but after a year still looks new and the lifting/lowering mechanism works smoothly. Overall a good price for the quality.
It's not what i expected

Ventline Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent - Manual - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" - White
Shipping was above average, very quick. Product was what I expected, HOWEVER The last one I purchased from another co. Included all the required screws. I was miffed when I opened the box and saw no screws, and the directions which I do not need were for a different application. Overall pleased.
Was missing the retaining clips on both items. The old ones were ok.

Vent Cover for Ventline Old Style Rounded Dome Trailer Roof Vents - White
Perfect replacement for our 1999 Jayco Kiwi bathroom vent cover. Easy swap out. We are ready for another year of outdoor enjoyment thanks to etrailer's excellent customer service.
Great value and fast service. I placed an order of 2 fenders and a roof vent on Tuesday, and it was on my door step in Wisconsin by Friday. Definitely will shop here again for future projects...

Vent Cover for Ventline Old-Style Rounded Dome Trailer Roof Vents - Smoke
It's exactly what on line.
My experience with etrailer could not have been better. Their online catalog had very good pictures and product description, so I was confident the I was ordering the right item for my application. Pricing was competitive. George J emailed me after I placed the order to let me know he upgraded my shipping so I could get the product sooner. The vent covers came well packaged and undamaged. Now I need to install them on my vintage 1964 Airstream Overlander, which I bought several years ago and rehabilitated. The white plastic vent covers I installed several years ago became brittle and crumbled. I hope the smoke colored ones I bought from etrailer will last a bit longer, but the price was so fair I bought an extra pair for the next time.

MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - Manual Lift - 4 Speed - Smoke
Works Great! We're in the process of selling our small trailer (bought a small motorhome). The MaxxFan will be a great selling feature.
I installed this myself on a vintage camper. It fit perfect in the space where the old vent was. Wiring was simple, and cutting down the bezel was easy. I have left this open for months and even in storms and no rain gets in. Being able to keep it open keeps the camper from getting musty. I also like the tinted skylight effect it gives.

MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - Manual Lift - 4 Speed - White
After many months of fretting over cutting into the roof of my new van, and waiting for the rainy season to end, I found the installation very easy, and the operation is great. We're currently on a road trip, and the MaxxAir has made camping much more comfortable, and it even improves air circulation while driving with the vent open. it's very quiet at low speed and no leaks in even the heaviest rain.
Great fan, but now wish I had sprung for one that reverses as well. It's quiet, and I modified the inside bezel with LED lights so easy to incorporate. I installed it to the side of the camper because the camper had a ridge running down the middle and I didnt want to deal with shims and blocks. Works great!

Dometic FanTastic Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat - Manual Lift - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4"
The 2250 Fantastic Fan still working great after a year! Pretty quiet and the thermostat is a handy feature that works well. In my application, it has a tendency to open itself while driving around unless it has been cranked down fairly hard. Driving with it open doesn't seem to be a problem other than the outside noise that comes in that way. My application was a fiberglass raised top on a Chevy van. I had to make a wood frame as the fiberglass did not provide a flat surface to mount to. Photos below show inside frame, fan, and insulation.
This fan is no longer being manufactured by Dometic, but I was happy to get one because I like the manual lift (rather than a remote plus rain sensor - I've read too many complaints about those models and they are close to $100 more). The fan came undamaged and not a returned item - another plus - I ordered from another company and the fan was broken, but had obviously been returned.

Ventline Ventadome Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - Powered Lift - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" - Smoke
Operates as described but when closed lifts slightly (flutters) in windy conditions. I’m concerned it might leak when it rains but haven’t been in those conditions yet.
I received the product today. Customer service to this point has been excellent. It will be about a week before trailer repair folks will be here to install, however, I did open and inspect the product. It was not protected in the box and is wedged into the box. I pray it will not be damaged.

Ventline Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent - Manual - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" - Metal
No more breaking the roof vent on the trailer when shoveling off snow! Customer service was also excellent and shipped fast!
I just got the trailer roof vent, and it is a great product. I unboxed it and noticed it was made of quality material. The top half had nice wide corners with several predrilled holes for easy installation. The inside plastic parts were sturdy and well designed to fit just right. I will be replacing an old plastic roof vent on my 6x12 enclosed trailer. This roof vent will be a life saver because of its quality, and it will be able to handle the years of being in the elements to come. Plastic just doesn't last at all in elements. I would recommend this product to anyone who wants to save themselves a lot of time and money replacing the plastic model roof vents by purchasing one of these. Great Job folks!

Ventline Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent - Manual - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" - White - Birch Trim
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
Simple replacement and it has held up well. I plan to to add a vent cover over the top so I can left this open in the Summer and not worry about the rain.

Dometic FanTastic Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Remote - Powered Lift - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4"
Had a customer with a manual push bathroom fan on a park model. There was no way you could turn it on without dragging a step stool in to reach it? Poor design originally but this remote control fan is the ticket for situations like I am describing. Simple installation, customer loved it!
Installed fan. All functions work. Except the fan blade is defective. Fan blade assembly rim has an axial runout of 1/4 inch, inner hub of fan blade assembly has a runout of 3/16 inches. Fan blade wobbles excessively. Obviously a mfg. defective part. The worst part is how difficult it is to get customer support from eTrailer or Domestic to just get a replacement fan blade. Should be simple. It’s not. Probably easer to just order a replacement fan blade and avoid the trouble of a warranty claim.

MaxxFan Mini Plus Manual RV Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - LED Light - Black
Delivery was great as always. Install very easy to my ambulance/camper conversion. It was my first ceiling vent and later found I underestimated the air flow I would want in the box. Since then I have removed this to move it to the shower/bathroom where it will work best for this application. Purchased the MaxxFan Plus w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed(MA00-04500K) and FanMate.
I am happy with this fan in my Ford Transit Connect. It is a standard height SWB Transit so I didn't feel I needed a more powerful fan. I like the built in light. I need this to fit in my garage so this fit the bill for a reasonable price. I will be running it off a portable power station and solar to charge the power bank. My van already had a popup vent installed so this should move some air through nicely. The installation after watching a few videos went smooth and took a few hours. I cut the roof hole, put down butyl tape and self leveling lap sealant. My roof is thinner so I did not need to use the middle extension piece. I did use my own 1" self taping screws. I would say I have moderate skills with tools and measuring. My electrical skills are minimal but I did not have any issues with this. Just put it in this morning so I haven't camped with it yet.

MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - Smoke
Put this in to get heat out of semi. Open side vent and turn fan on high exhaust wow what a game changer.
I purchased 2 of these fans to replace the old fan in our RV. Absolutely love these fans and the features; keeps out the rain open or closed, auto on at set temperature, in or out air flow, remote control, low profile design, and straight forward installation. If you are considering a fan replacement, I highly recommend this fan.

MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - White
This Exceeded our expectations; we didn't know that this would have such an impact on how much air was moved by this vent fan. I was in, then out of the "Doghouse" for the cost of this (the wife did her own research after I had) and then the wait; the unit this replaced was leaking water as it rained outside. Within a week of ordering this it was delivered, and the following day I got it installed. Installation directions were very simple to understand/follow; the hard part was removing the old vent fan and caulk. Another "Bonus" was how quite this is compared to the original.
When they work, they do really well. Mine started squeaking loudly, so it has been returned. The designers of this model were kind enough to install a super bright green LED that shines when in auto mode, which is where most people will use it. You cannot shut off the LED unless you take it out of auto mode. If you like waking up to a green light, as in an alien spacecraft coming to pick you up for a free ride, then this is the fan for you. Otherwise, shop around because that light is really really bright! If it wasn't for the beacon that you cannot shut off, this would be a five-star review of a fan.

This fan has worked great for my motor home. If you need a stronger breeze, this may not be the fan for you.
Quick delivery and easy installation. My camper is a little older but this vent fan is an exact match. Bery happy with the removable screen for cleaning great feature the old vent didn’t have.
What our customers are saying:
"Easy place to shop. Fast delivery and great products. Very happy with my purchase."
