Note: Not for use above tubs, showers, or range cooking surfaces.
The MaxxFan Deluxe has a built-in rain shield that, along with the dome, surrounds and encloses the vent opening. The shield blocks rainwater and other precipitation from entering through the vent and damaging the interior of your RV or trailer. This means you can run the fan during any weather without having to worry about the consequences. With the rain shield, there is also no need to install a separate vent cover.
The white dome on the rain shield is constructed of durable high-density polypropylene. When it's closed, the dome provides a seamless, low-profile appearance.
The 12-volt, variable-speed fan operates in manual mode. You can choose from 4 different speeds to increase or reduce the airflow as needed.
This fan also exhausts stale air out of your RV. 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.
The flush-mounted keypad on the vent enables you to operate the fan, including turning the fan on or off. You can also control the fan speed.
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.
Unlike a dome that has only 1 arm, this manual-lift dome is supported by 2 sturdy arms so that it will not flutter during high winds or while you are driving.
And a manual hand knob is built into the underside of the vent to allow you to open and close the dome. Pull the knob outward, turn it to where you want it, and push it in to lock the dome into place.
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.
The MaxxFan Deluxe 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 included mounting flange is lined with a rubber weather seal, which helps prevent leaks. Roof sealant (sold separately) is required for installation.
To install, first secure the mounting flange to the roof. Then 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. Next insert the vent into the flange and fasten it down using the metal mounting points on the flange. To finish, trim the garnish as needed to fit the thickness of your roof and install it.

Today we're going to be taking a look at the MaxxAir MaxxFan Deluxe. This is a trailer roof vent with a 12 volt fan. It's going to feature a reversible variable speed fan. It's going to allow you to precisely control air movement in and out of your RV. It's going to allow you to bring in fresh air and remove hot musty air and odors. It's going to feature a 4 speed design.
It can be used as a ceiling fan, so it's going to operate while the lid is closed. That will circulate air inside your trailer. It's got the built-in rain cover. That's one of the most unique features about the unit. It's going to use a patented design to keep out the rain, so no more stuffy interiors even when it rains. No need to install a separate vent cover, to get rain protection.
It's going to keep out the rain, even when the lid is open, so you can operate the fan in practically any weather. The durable rain cover lid will open and close with a rotating hand operated knob. What I want to do real quick, is I just want to go over the components of this fan. In order to do that, I'm simply just going to lift it off of the base here. Now I want to point out that it's going to come with, this is your roof mounting flange. It's got 4 clips and 4 mount holes.
It's going to come with the necessary hardware to get that installed onto the roof. To get that installed to the actual housing here of the fan area or the fan housing. All of this right here. It's got 4, 9 holes, 2 on each side to get the 2 components installed together. This piece right here, it's going to give us a measurement of 16 1/2" by 16 1/2". That's outer edge to outer edge.
I just want go over that, so we can set it aside. I also want to mention that it comes with the interior trim piece or garnish. It's a nice white design, so it's going to add a clean finished look to the inside of your trailer or RV. Now this is going to give us a measurement of 16 3/8" by 16 3/8. Outer edge to outer edge, so that's included as well. When it comes to the fan, right now it's in the fully open position. You can see the nice vent design that it has here at the back. When it's installed in the open position, it's going to sit above the roof by 9 5/16". It's a nice low profile design. With it fully closed, it's going to sit above the roof 5". Here on the bottom, you're going to notice all of the functions that it has. This right here is the manual control knob. It simply raises and lowers the lid, or opens and closes the lid. It's also got a lockable position. That way it can lock to ensure that the lid stays in the position where you want it. The unit's going to feature lifting arms. Inside the lid, on this point here, there's going to be a lift arm on this side and on this side. The dual lift arms provide sturdy support for the lid when it's open. It's going to withstand high winds without fluttering. It can remain fully open while you're driving. It's also going to have this flush mounted keypad control right here. It's very easy to access and operate. It's very easy to clean, you can just wipe it off. It's going to have your fan on and fan off buttons. Then you can control between the 4 different speeds that it has to offer. It's going to come with your insect screen. It's got these retaining knobs right here, that just rotate out of the way. You can remove the screen for easy removal and cleaning. Now, this is a standard opening side, it's going to make it easy to replace or upgrade an old vent. That's going to feature a really nice fuse protected sealed ball bearing motor, that's built to last a long time. It's going to come with all the necessary hardware and electrical connectors to get the thing fully installed. We do recommend using some sealant underneath that roof flange, just to create a nice weather tight seal. It is going to require a 12 volt DC minimum 5am service. When it comes to fitting roof thicknesses, this unit's designed to fit roofs 1 1/8" thick to 6 1/2" thick. Now if the roof is less than 1 1/8" thick, the ceiling must be built up. When it comes to the fan's specifications, that fan area is going to measure 12" in diameter. That's going to be a 10 blade design and those are clear blades. The unit's designed to fit inside of a rough opening. Size of 14 1/25" by 14 1/25". It's got your wiring right here, so you're going to have your white wire and your black wire. Black has the positive sticker on it, so that means that the white wire would be your ground wire. Again, it's going to come with the screws necessary to get it installed. As well as the electrical connectors to get the electrical wiring connections made. That's going to do it for today's look at the MaxxAir MaxxFan Deluxe.

The built-in rain shield on this manual roof vent protects the interior of your RV or camper from rainwater. The 4-speed fan provides efficient airflow inside your RV. Ceiling fan mode circulates air when vent is closed.Haven’t installed vent fan yet but my order was handled in a most efficient manner thanks Paula! I will shop etrailer again. 715895
Works as advertised. Quiet at slower speeds, a bit noisier at higher. No rain leakage from cover. Was a bit hard to clean fan blade after some months of use as I didn't have a hex key to fit the set screw. Wish I'd got the remote control version, but was trying to keep things simple. For my Promaster install I got a custom plastic gasket online that made for a very tight seal with roof with minimum silicone gunk everywhere. 606940
I used to have a Fan-tastic fan, but it leaked when partially opened and it was raining. So I upgraded to the MaxxFan 5301K. It is very low profile and streamlined, and the integrated rain shield is such a clever and useful feature. It fit exactly in the 14 " x 14" opening that I cut for my Fan-tastic fan, and it only took me an hour to change it out. I REALLY like this product! 576329
Had hoped it would be "whisper quiet" but does move the air. Hope the "rain proof" advertising about this fan proves out. Now how long will it last? 422675
I used this vent to replace the crank up vent in the galley area of my RV. I really like that I don't have to close the vent when traveling or when it's raining as I had to with the original vent. This thing is really tough too! It survived a very bad West Texas hail storm without any visible damage. I also love the low speed setting and how it just sips battery power when running. Great for getting some airflow in the RV at night when dry camping. 717293
Decent, motor starts to make noise after a few weekends. This is the second one I have bought. 697616
Figuring out how to tap into the battery power is the trickiest part, but once we figured that out, the rest of the installation is a piece of cake. The fan does a very nice job ventilating the van, it runs quietly, and it seems reasonably weatherproof. All in all, a must-have for any van you're planning on using as a camper. 679241
Exactly as ordered. 678014
Unit really pulls in air and help keep my trailer comfortable. It was easy to install. 674910
ordered on sunday, shipped on monday installed on wednesday. doesn't get any better than this. thanks gwen for a great job of expediting. tom 596209
My Maxxair roof vent fan is the perfect appliance for ventilating the van I'm living in. It has four speeds which is sufficient for my needs as it is a small space. With the speed on the lowest setting it is totally silent and the attached vent cover keeps the rain out allowing me to keep it open at all times. This is my second van with this model fan and I could not find a better price for it than etrailer. 584646
On time in good pricing 579281
What can I say. I finally have my ceiling fans installed, front and back, With bathroom yet to do. etrailer is a very good company. They keep in touch. In a good way! So far they have GREAT CUSTOMER SUPPORT And as a bonus These max air fans are wonderful. I am sitting in Chula Vista, ca. It's 82 in my Motor home But the breeze these ten speed fans create is wonderful! Quiet, nice, too notch! Thanks Etrailer Thanks max air! Stephen 548736
The fan works great, very quiet and low power draw on the lower speeds, and on the higher speeds is quieter than the original fan while moving WAY more air. 544204
I don't have it installed yet. I just received the fan. But shipping was wonderful. And I am looking forward to the day it will be installed in the van. 542068
Good prices. FAST delivery! And I am was impressed with the email after my order that thanked me for my order and they knew how many times I have ordered. Then the follow up email asking my opinion. You folks are “on top of it!” Dave 525119
I used this fan to replace the cheap metal top fan in the bathroom of my class c. I used this 4 speed model because it's only going to be used to remove damp air when taking a shower. Installation is straight forward. I like the fact that it can be left open in the rain with out any problems. I needs to come with self tapping screws as most rv's have a metal frame around the opening and I had to use an old self tapping screw to drill holes in order to use the included screws to install on roof. 515097
I just got the MAXX AIR exhaust fan put in yesterday. All I can say is that if a non handyman as myself can put it in and it actually worked it must be simple... It moves a tremendous amount of air. It did take a bit of time to actually get it. 506045
I got great service on the phone. And got the product in a timely manner. Everything is great on my end. I would buy from etrailer again. 494947
Received in a timely manner. etrailer always great to deal with. Great updates on shipping. 424832
Paul S - 08/26/2018Works as advertised. It replaced a more complicated, multispeed, remote control model. It was $100 less that the fancy one and works fine. Unless fan is too high to reach, use this one. 387886
Product arrived very promptly and in excellent condition. I ordered the exhaust fan for my travel trailer because the one in it was not as powerful as this one so it's an upgrade. 353322
Review from a similar MaxxAir MaxxFan Deluxe in RV Vents and Fans
This is a good unit overall. It does have an issue with turning on by itself from time to time. Normally it works well to regulate the temp in the coach-- 550023
Review from a similar MaxxAir MaxxFan Deluxe in RV Vents and Fans
I installed this powered vent on our Keystone 5th wheel about a year ago and we have not had any issues with it since installation. I works well and does a good job keeping the heat down in the camper. I am planning on installing a second vent in the sleeping area soon. 635683
