Automatic Rain Sensor
The MaxxFan Plus has a rain sensor that detects when it starts to rain or snow. The sensor then automatically closes the roof vent and shuts the fan off, preventing the interior of your RV or trailer from getting wet. This allows you to leave your vent open and running without having to worry about the weather. Once the sensor has dried, you'll be able to open the vent and turn the fan back on. To deactivate the rain sensor, press the rain sensor button on the keypad.
Reversible, Variable-Speed Fan with Thermostat
The 12-volt, variable-speed fan has 2 modes of operation: manual and auto. When the fan is in manual mode, you can choose from 10 different speeds to increase or reduce the airflow as needed. Auto mode works in conjunction with the fan's thermostat.
To enter auto mode, press the auto mode button on either the remote control or keypad. Once the fan is in auto mode, the thermostat is activated with a set temperature of 78 degrees F. Pressing the arrow keys on either the remote or keypad changes the set temperature in 1 degree increments. When the thermostat is set, it senses the room temperature and automatically turns the fan on if it is above the set temperature. The fan shuts off when the set temperature has been reached. If the room temperature rises, the fan turns on again. This keeps your RV cool and comfortable and saves you from having to adjust the fan by hand. The auto mode also saves energy by running the fan no more than necessary, especially while you're away or asleep.
This fan is reversible, which means you are able to both exhaust stale air out of your RV and bring fresh air in from the outside. To enter ceiling fan mode, close the vent while the fan is still running. The fan then circulates the air inside your RV like a ceiling fan.
The fan has a fuse-protected, ball bearing motor that is sealed to keep out dust, dirt, and moisture.
Remote Control and Keypad
The remote control has a built-in LCD screen so that it's easy to see the current settings. The remote enables you to operate the vent and fan from afar, including opening or closing the dome and turning the fan on or off. With the remote, you can also control the fan speed, the direction of the airflow, and the set temperature for the thermostat.
The remote comes with a cradle, which mounts to the wall. When it's not in use, the remote can be stored in the cradle. Hardware and 2 AAA batteries are included. The low-battery indicator located on the top-center area of the screen lets you know when it's time to change the batteries.
Like the remote control, the flush-mounted keypad on the vent allows you to operate the vent, the fan, and the thermostat. The rain sensor can only be activated or deactivated from the keypad.
Powered-Lift Dome with Twin Arms
The dome on this roof vent is constructed of durable high-density polyethylene, and it is translucent so that some natural light can shine through. When it's closed, the dome provides a seamless, low-profile appearance that blends into the roof of your RV.
This powered-lift dome opens and closes automatically, which means no hand cranking is needed. And unlike a dome that has only 1 arm, this dome is supported by 2 sturdy arms so that it will not flutter during high winds or while you are driving.
The dome has a sensor that will automatically shut off the lift motor when an obstruction is encountered or when the dome reaches the end of its travel. So, for example, if the dome cannot open all the way under your vent cover, a sensor will stop the dome once it has opened as far as it can.
And a manual hand knob is built into the underside of the vent to allow you to open and close the dome if your RV loses power.
Removable Bug Screen
This vent has a bug screen that helps keep insects and debris out of your RV. It is secured to the vent with 4 built-in retainer clips. These clips make it easy to remove the screen for cleaning or maintenance. Just rotate the clips, and the screen will pop out.
Installation
The MaxxFan Plus vent fits standard 14" x 14" openings in the roof of an RV, camper, or enclosed trailer. A white interior trim piece (or garnish), insulated electrical connectors, and hardware are included for installation. The vent also has a molded-in mounting flange that is lined with a rubber weather seal, which helps prevent leaks. Roof sealant (sold separately) is required for installation.
To install, connect the two wires on the vent to your RV's electrical system. The black wire is for power, and the white wire is for ground. Then insert the MaxxFan Plus into the opening in the roof and mount the flange to the roof. To finish, trim the garnish as needed to fit the thickness of your roof and install it.
For extra rain protection, install a MaxxAir FanMate vent cover (sold separately) using the molded mounting tabs located on the flange. The tabs are designed to align with the integrated brackets on the FanMate, allowing for a no-drill, tool-free installation. These tabs also have rubber inserts that prevent water from seeping in under the flange.

So far so good. The fan arrived on time, and despite being shipped without the benefit of an outer box, there was no damage to the fan. The installation instructions were clear, and the installation was not overly complicated. The fan itself is very quiet, allows a good amount of light in, and swiftly pulls heat and presumably propane exhaust up and out of the kitchen. It’s a huge improvement for our 2011 Keystone Raptor both in terms of safety and convenience. The materials and construction of the fan appear to be of high quality, but time will tell how well it will hold up to daily use and occasional travel.

I purchased 2 MaxxAir fans about a year ago & I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase!
My husband and I installed them ourselves, which was a bit of a task but still doable. Removing the old adhesive before installing the new fan was the hardest part.
They aren't cheap, so I was a little hesitate before buying, but they have proven to be worth every penny! I'm actually on a cross country road trip right now, using these wonderful fans everyday since I hit the road in August.
They're great for blowing out the hot air after a hot day, cooling off the rv when it gets a bit too warm inside or when you just need a little circulation. The rain sensors are so incredibly helpful and work great! The lids are a bit noisy when they open and close, but once the lid stops moving, the fan isn't that distracting at all, especially on the lower settings. I highly recommend the MaxxAir Fans!

Under 2 years old & both fans started giving us major problems. One fan regularly scream, flashes & shuts off for no reason, & the rain sensor stopped working yes I clean it, causing a terrible rain flood in my RV. The other fan will not run at all, it just screams & closes instantly. Ive called MaxxAir several times, was told twice they were going to send replacement parts & nothing ever arrived. I am no longer a happy customer & would never recommend MaxxAir Fans to anyone. Their product & customer service has failed me.
by: David 04/18/2024
Nice fan. Easy installation once old fan was removed. Remote can be wall mounted or use the on fan controls to turn on and off. The fan is very quiet. I chose the MaxxFan to replace the noisy fan in the bathroom. Works great and closes automatically if it detects rain.
by: Norman 04/19/2024
The fan works great. At 30% speed you can barely hear it running. In hindsight, I should have bought two since the other one I purchased does not have a remote, my wife can't reach the fan switch. But it also works very good.
by: Bobby 11/06/2022
Fairly easy install. Hardest part is getting the old one out and all the sealant cleaned off. Two wire hookup. What I really like about our new fan is the one touch operation. Once you get it adjusted the way you want, one touch of the power button opens the lid and starts the fan. Reverse is true when you turn it off. Major upgrade from the small fan that came with our 5th wheel.

The fan is still working great. Remote failed after just staring our trip last summer. Didnt get much use out of the remote before failure. Good thing this was installed in the bathroom where we can reach controls on the fan.

I installed this in my 1999 Ford E350 ambulance-to-camper conversion last year. Absolutely phenomenal product! We are both light sleepers, and the fan is right over the bed, but on the three lowest settings it is virtually silent, yet still moves enough air to provide a nice, cooling breeze. On high it really moves some air, and being reversible and having 10 speeds you can pretty much have whatever you want. I bought two, but only used one. When a buddy saw how well mine worked, and found out I had another one, he bought it from me at full price.
It has a remote control in addition to the controls on the fan, and a manual "crank" in case you lose battery power. Oh yeah, the rain sensor works too!

I ordered and installed a MaxxAir 4500K Vent fan to install in our cabover area of our Class C motorhome from Etrailer.com . This is the second one we installed, the first one in the RV bathroom is still working great after about 1 years time. Reason I installed a 2nd one is so we can have one fan exhaust air while the other fan pulls air into the RV and thereby create a wind tunnel through the RV so we can close and lock the windows but still cool the RV in moderately warm weather when we want to leave the dog in the RV and go somewhere with everything locked up. I chose Etrailer for this purchase because they had a good price and they show MaxxAir as one of their partner brands and state the fan has a 2 year manufacture warranty right on the page where it is listed. The fan was shipped quickly and I was pleased it wasn't old stock, the model label on the fan showed 2018 manufactured. I also bought a Maxx II cover for it.

Purchased for my fifth wheel toy hauler’s garage and needed one with a remote given the height. Went in easy, moves significantly more air than the last one but definitely louder. I really do like the design which makes adding a cover simple. Time will tell how well this one holds up.
by: Benjamin06/04/2020
I love etrailer about 90% of the time. The other 10% is when I attempted to order keyed alike locks. It all ended ok but was a pain. In any case this is a review about a maxxfan 4500k. Let me just start by saying etrailers price was $125 higher than a competitors and they were willing to price match it. So a solid A+ on price matching. The box came just as it would if you bought it off the shelf. No additional packaging which is fine. I’ve had this same fan before and it works great. Thanks again for the price match etrailer. The fan will go in next week when I redo my RV roof on my Montana 3750fl.
by: KGB09/17/2017
Product design is aesthetically pleasing and construction appears to be very durable. Purchased this particular fan over another popular brand because of its low profile when closed and because it has dual actuator door support arms. Product will be used in my teardrop trailer build so I was wanting something compact yet attractive. I'm not to the point where I can actually test the operation of the fan at this time. Hopefully soon. Thank you etrailer.com for another great product at a great price and as usual, superior costumer service.

The hardest part of the installation was removing the old sealant otherwise the installation was easy.
by: Gary08/29/2022
I really like all of the features and they move a lot of air. I especially like the automatic closure if it rains while they are open. I have two fans and one of them quit running but otherwise the lid opened and closed so I knew the power was okay. I took the circuit board out and found that the transistor that powers the fan was bad, I replaced the transistor and it is working great again.

They work great and the fact that they will turn off and close when it rains is very convenient. I have two installed and one fan quit working, I found the semi-conductor that controls the speed had failed, I replaced the semi-conductor and it has been working good since.
by: Susan 11/05/2023
Good so far. This replaced a 3 year old MaxxFan that came with our RV. The lift mechanism broke. It was nice to find an exact replacement. Its a nice fan and the rain sensor is a really great feature, closing the vent if it starts raining. I just hope the reliability is better with the replacement.
by: Robert W11/20/2023
Again, everything went as eTrailer said it would. Because of weather and a busy rv tech, we didn’t get our MaxxFan installed until today.. Thanks for your great service!
by: James A.07/12/2023
My Instal was not original equipment. My first MaxxFan Plus was out of warranty by time not by use. I found buying parts during Covid was a disappointing experience. I found buying new MaxxFan from etrailer was the best way for me. The price was right it was in stock and dilivery was better than promised date. For the install use the info supplied. It’s as easy as 1-2-3. The worst part is standing on the laddder one step to high one step to low. Make sure to use butal strip around the outside for a good seal. Every thing went and worked as advertised.
by: Diann07/08/2023
Fan works great except for the following: moisture sensor, in my opinion,is worthless. If it is raining alot,and you want to vent, you can't. Thankfully,we realized this early, on our trip to Alaska. Found a dealer that had a cover , for another $100. If the controller gets bumped and dropped the whole unit falls apart. I decided to electrical tape it. I bought it also for the tempurature sensor. Unfortunately, this is one of the rainiest and coldest spring/summer in Alaska. I guess I will wait for hot weather on the return trip home to test venting hot air!
by: Luther 04/22/2024
Easy install. After 1 year has held up well.
by: Sandra 11/28/2023
We love this fan! The remote is nice for me as I can't reach the fan. Nice to be able to reverse airflow, too.
by: David06/30/2023
My wife loves this powered roof vent! Bi-directional 10 speed fan is great. It can be run very quietly while eating dinner, or run faster to pull cool air in at dusk. The remote control seems to go through batteries fairly fast even though used very little. I would definitely buy again.
by: Steven 04/22/2024
Kelly is awesome!! Very Knowledgable.
by: Aaron 09/15/2023
Easy to install and works so much better than the OEM computer fan. Much much improved airflow for moisture and odor removal and noise levels are way lower. I highly recommend it.

See what our Experts say about this MAXXAIR RV Vents and Fans
- Replacement Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan for a Fantastic Vent Model 5250I am sorry but there are no replacement control panels or remotes available for the Fantastic Vent Model 5250. That model of vent is obsolete and they aren't making replacement parts specifically for it anymore. You can either try to source the parts through used vendors or you can replace your fan with the MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote - Powered Lift - 10 Speed - Smoke item # MA00-04500K. I have linked a review video below.
view full answer... - Operating Modes for MaxxAir MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent MA00-04500KThe MaxxAir MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent # MA00-04500K has a powered lid which closes automatically when the rain sensor detects moisture or when you use the remote control or keypad. The fan on this vent will continue to run even with the lid closed if the unit is set to operate in the selectable ceiling fan mode. Operation of the fan is also controlled by the thermostat setting. I suggest making sure you do not have the ceiling fan operating mode engaged.

This is compatible with Coleman-Mach Mach 1, Mach 3 and Mach 15 models. It comes with washers and nuts to mount it but unfortunately it doesn't come with the "L" shaped bolts that you mentioned. If you are looking for a lower profile vent to replace your current AC unit then you want to go with a MaxxAir vent as they sit lower...

- Troubleshooting Roof Vent That Fan and Lid Power Stopped workingIf your roof vent, like the MaxxFan Plus # MA00-04500K, is supposed to operate via the control panel then it sounds like you need to check the connection from the panel to the vent and if that looks good the connection from the vent to where it is powered. If only one part was not working then it could be that one part malfunctioned but since everything stopped working altogether it sounds like it isn't getting power.
view full answer... - Replacement Lid & Operator Mechanism For MaxxFan Plus 4500K Roof VentLet's go ahead and start with the lift mechanism, which is also called the operator mechanism for your MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent # MA00-04500K, which is faulty and why your fan won't stay open. For that we do offer the replacement: - Replacement Operator Mechanism # MA10-20281K-1AF In regards to the replacement lid in Smoke for your MaxxFan Plus vent, we do have that part, which is the following: - Replacement Lid for MaxxFan and MaxxFan Plus Roof Vents - Smoke # MA10A40009K
view full answer... - Rain Sensor Location on MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent # MA00-04500KThe rain sensor itself on the MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent # MA00-04500K that you referenced is located at the far right corner away from the lid assembly on the fan. I have attached an image pointing out the sensor that you can check out as well. When the sensor detects rain (or snow) it will automatically close the vent and shut the fan off to prevent the interior of your RV or trailer from getting wet. This means you can leave the vent open and running without having to worry about what...

- Replacement Remote For MaxxFan Deluxe 5100KThe Replacement Handheld Remote for MaxxAir Roof Vent Intake/Exhaust Fans # MA00A01150K and the Replacement Remote for MaxxAir Roof Vent Exhaust Only Fans # MA00A01151K is not the same part, and will fit different models. If you have the MaxxFan Deluxe # MA00-05100K, then the remote you need is the Replacement Handheld Remote for MaxxAir Roof Vent Intake/Exhaust Fans # MA00A01150K, not # MA00A01151K. The MAxxAir Roof Vent Intake/Exhaust Fans # MA00A01151K will work with the MaxxFan #...
view full answer... - Roof Vent Cover Recommendation for MaxxAir Roof Vent with Rain SensorYes, the MaxxAir FanMate Rain Cover part # MA00-955003 will work well with the MaxxAir Roof Vent system part # MA00-955003 that you referenced.
view full answer... - RV Roof Vent Assembly for Winnebago Destination to be Activated by Wall SwitchFor a wall switch type application for an RV roof vent your best option will be a vent assembly designed specifically for this type of install like the Ventline Ventadome Roof Vent w/12V Fan and Wall Switch # V2119-1-533 which gives you the ability to raise/lower and turn the fan off and on with a wall switch. If you use a wall switch to cut power off and on with the MaxxAir option you mentioned you won't be able to activate the fan like you are wanting to. Basically you'd have to turn...
view full answer... - Options for Replacement Roof Vent With RemoteWe have previously confirmed with Fan-Tastic that the replacement remotes for the model 6600 vents are no longer available, unfortunately, and you are correct that the digital replacements won't work. That means if your current remote is broken and you want to utilize a vent with a remote you will need to replace the entire assembly with one of the following options, each of which has a remote: - Fan-Tastic Vent Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Remote - Powered Lift # FV807350 - MaxxFan Plus Roof...
view full answer... - MaxxAir Roof Vent Recommendation with White Lid, Remote, and Rain SensorThe best option we have for what you are wanting is the MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan, Thermostat, and Remote # MA00-07000K as it has the white lid, the remote operation, and a rain sensor to automatically lower the lid. The fan is also 10-speed and reversible.
view full answer... - Recommended Roof Vent for 2013 Ford Transit ConnectI have a couple of different options for a roof vent on your 2013 Ford Transit. A lot of our roof vents sit around the same height, so it really just depends on what kind of style you would like to have. The Ventline Ventadome # V2110SP-24 is a good option because it only adds 2 inches in height when closed, and 11 inches in height when opened. You can also make sure that your roof vent matches the rest of your Transit by painting it. This manual vent doesn't include a fan and requires...
view full answer... - MaxxFan 2016 Keystone Montana Model 3710FL Won't Stop RunningIf your MaxxFan with the rain sensor, like part # MA00-04500K, starts operating automatically and the controller or the controls on the unit aren't working then that sounds like a bad circuit board or that the built-in safety feature for too much (or not enough) voltage was activated and the circuit board locked up. Since you already removed power from the vent try connecting it back to power. If it works properly then it was just locked up and needed to be disconnected from power to unlock...
view full answer... - Amp Draw For the MaxxAir MaxxFan #MA00-04500KThe 900 CFM fan of the MaxxAir MaxxFan #MA00-04500K that you referenced needs to be attached to at least a 5 amp circuit. So it's max draw would be 5 amps.
view full answer... - Comparing MaxxAir Fan Deluxe MA00-07500K and MaxxAir Fan Plus MA00-04500KBoth the MaxxAir Fan Deluxe # MA00-07500K and MaxxAir Fan Plus # MA00-04500K offer 900-cubic-feet-per-minute (CFM) air flow ratings and powered lid lift. The Deluxe has a built-in rain cover to protect the RV interior while the Plus instead has a sensor to close the lid if it rains.
view full answer... - Replacement Lift Operator Mechanism For MaxxAir Trailer Roof Vent With Powered LiftYou sure can. The vent assembly should have a sticker affixed to it listing the part number, but since it's a powered vent, the replacement operator mechanism is most likely part # MA10-20281K-1AF which is a replacement for MaxxAir 4500K through 4900K inclusive and 4700N through 4900N models inclusive. If you have a different vent brand or model, let me know and I'd be happy to look into the availability of a replacement lift operator mechanism for you.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Maxxair Fan 5301 To Determine if Motor Needs ReplacedThe way to test the motor is to bypass the circuit board by disconnecting the motor and then applying power from your battery using a jump wire to one wire while connecting a grounded wire to the other wire of the motor. It sounds like you did this and the motor didn't turn with direct power applied. So you know it is the motor and can replace it with the Replacement 12-Volt Variable Speed Fan Motor for MaxxAir MaxxFan RV Roof Vents # MA10-20968.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting MaxxFan 4951KS Leaking LubricantBased on what you are describing it sounds like this is coming from the motor. There wouldn't be anything that would leak out of the operator mechanism. I recommend wiping it up and keeping an eye on it to see if you can better identify where this is coming from. If it is the motor, we have the Replacement Lift Motor for Maxx Fan Plus Roof Vent # MA10-20270 available as a replacement part. Depending on the age of the fan you may also want to consider replacement the entire fan with something...
view full answer... - Rain Sensor On MaxxFan Plus Blinking and Fan Is Not WorkingIt sounds like the rain sensor is shorting out on the MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent part # MA00-04500K since it is blinking and the vent is not working properly. According to MaxxFan if you clean the sensor with a rag and rubbing alcohol it should start working again. Please let me know if this doesn't help and we can troubleshoot further.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting A Solid Red Light On A MaxxAir MaxxFan RV Roof Vent If you're getting a solid red light that indicates that the rain sensor is sensing moisture and calling for the vent to close to protect itself. Since you just replaced the circuit board it's most likely the rain sensor itself that's the issue. Unfortunately there isn't any troubleshooting that you can do besides just simply replacing the sensor with part # MA34FR.
view full answer... - Solution for Maxxair RV Roof Vent Lid that Won't OpenIt sounds like the lift motor of your MaxxAir RV roof vent isn't working and is in need of replacing. We have that part with # MA10-20270.
view full answer... - RV Roof Vent Solution that Also Has Wall ControlHey Devon, does your RV roof vent wall control unit look like the # MA59FR? If so you have a MaxxFan Plus RV roof vent that was designed for wall control and for a replacement unit you would want the part # MA00-04500K to use a setup that would use same wall control and wall control wiring. Otherwise you'd have to go with this same unit and also swap out the wall controller.
view full answer... - Will Lid Of MaxxFan Plus Be Damaged If Opened Fully With FanMate Rain Cover InstalledThe MaxxAir MaxxFan Plus, part # MA00-04500K will work great with the MaxxAir FanMate Rain Cover, part # MA00-955003. The MA00-04500K is designed so that when the lid opens, if it comes into contact with the cover it automatically stops, preventing damage to the lid or the cover. The MA00-04500K also has a clip that the rain cover can attach to so you are good to go.
view full answer... - Replacement Remote Recommendation for MaxxAir Roof VentYes, the replacement remote part # MA00A01150K would be exactly what you would need for a replacement remote for your roof vent # MA00-04500K.

Overall the fan is still working well. However, it has failed to respond as it should to rain. It’s supposed to stop and close when moisture is detected in order to prevent rain from coming inside the RV. Although we don’t usually leave it open if nobody is here, I forgot it was on once when an unexpected rain storm suddenly drove a lot of rain through the fan to the kitchen floor before I realized what was happening. One other thing that I haven’t yet addressed is that I can’t adjust the degree of the fan cover opening as it seems we should be able to do. It’s either 100 open or closed regardless of the fan speed setting. Nevertheless the fan does the job that we bought it to do, and it’s very effective. I also love that it lets a good amount of filtered sunlight in which helps brighten up our kitchen and living room.
