This roof vent allows air to circulate in motor homes and enclosed trailers, keeping interiors ventilated without compromising security. Wedge-shaped, smoke-colored plastic vent cover opens and closes from inside with a hand-operated crank.Installed this vent into my Haulmark Transport 6'x12' enclosed trailer. Installation was easy, I cut a 14.25" x 14.25" inch hole between two crossmembers in the roof and dropped it in place. Because the roof on this enclosed trailer is so thin, I used a piece of 3/8" plywood so sandwich between the interior garnish and actual vent. I cut the same size hole into the plywood and left a 2" lip all around. I use 28 #8 x 5/8" stainless screws to hold it in place, pre-drilled with 1/8" bit. I then used roofing tar to seal the vent and put masking tape all around, leave 1" from the flange to ensure good coverage. I then removed the masking tape, leaving nice clean lines. Interior garnish is held in place by #8 x 3/8" galvanized screws. Huge kudos to etrailer for carrying such awesome products for great low prices and offering super cheap shipping to Canada!
My truck build; I have developed, invented, a new kind of truck cap and also wanted to provide the best venting in the industry and this is why I wanted this product. Although it is a little flimsy it is easy to install and easy to use. And it adapts well for my use. My product (I hope to have available in good stores like Etrailer by years end) is a rigid, folding, adjustable (fits most trucks), one person on & off, and easy to store when off pick up truck cap or camper. See attached photos of my prototype build. Many have inquired to use it for their pets, for camping, and many other uses.
Great vent, though the instructions should probably talk about how you need to remove the cover to put all the screws in.
Learned my lesson, not to go cheap! I bought a $20 dollar vent online less a year ago, and the Arizona heat disintegrated it. I called Noah at eTrailer and he was fast, knowledgeable, and courteous. The new vent arrived within a few days and it installed in less than and hour without a problem. Most of the work is in the prep. If you've never done this before, follow the instructions in eTrailer's video, and you won't have any problems. If you need to trim the garnish ring, I snipped it vertically at either side of the corners and then bent the plastic, snapping it like tile or drywall. Easy-Peasy! I really like the smoke tint to, I can see the sky through it. Thanks for the suggestion Noah!
Ventline product looks good and it works excellent. Very easy to use round turn handle for open & close of unit. If you need a vent with no fan would recommend this product.
Fit perfectly ,easy install and much better made than the original
Delivered on time and in good condition. Thanks
UPS has a new habit of delivering to my Post Office. So when I get there, 25 miles round trip once a week I was surprised to find your package there. So the question, why pay for UPS shipping if they are not going to deliver and it cost me additional money just to drive to the Post Office? The product (vent) is nice, shipping could throw a piece of foam on the bottom of the box so the plastic dome does not get all marred up in the box..
Steven H - 08/16/2014Replaced a ‘93 shower/bathroom vent in Hart Living Quarter Horse Trailer. This vent came nicely packaged. Was able to replace in about an hour. Looks really nice, works great. The tint is an added feature which is nice. It was affordable and it looks like it will last forever.
This is great quality! Exactly what we were looking for.
Great product! Much nicer than our stock vent.
Was a replacement for another ventline taken out by hail. Item was as presented, price was right shipping was prompt. Will use terai let again if need arises
While working on a broken dome vent after a storm called these guys at etrailer.com helped us find the correct Ventadome that we needed to fix a problem. Works like a charm
This product is a wonderful addition to our travel trailer. Since we installed the one vent and another vent with the fan we have not had any problems with them. Great products !!! I would like to mention that the colored covers let in more light then the old white cover.
Paul - 07/28/2017The vent is just like it is pictured. It is easy to install, it was just the right depth for the ceiling of my trailer. I put it in my teardrop trailer. The tinted plastic is nice to keep the sun out. It is easy to raise and lower. I would recommend this to anyone who wants an economical roof vent for their trailer.
received it Friday 5/22/18 .I was away camping at my seasonal site got home today Monday 6/25/18 opened up package. looks great will install it this weekend. it looks a lot better than some of the other ones I looked at.
John f - 06/25/2019This vent was shipped fast and received within a week after. I was contacted by a customer rep to make sure I was satisfied or had any questions. Vent went in quickly and easily. Instructions were clear and I had no trouble understanding what was required. This was the first time I had done anything like this on my travel trailer and am extremely happy with the results. I would order from etrailer.com again in a heartbeat. Great product-Great customer service. Thank you, George J.
Coleen S - 07/09/2017All I can comment on, since I've only just installed it, is my experience so far. My previous roof vent blew off so I replaced with this one. Rachel was very helpful over the phone. The product arrived promptly and was not damaged. Installation was easy since the holes lined up perfectly. My only quibble, and that's all it is, a quibble (funny word "quibble") is that the hinges kind of block the screw holes in the front so you can't get in there with a cordless drill. I had to use a screw driver, but not a big deal.
Pretty solid to be so light weight, UPS beat the hell out of it in route. If it only came with a gasket like the original I removed :-( Fit and function Good, the original lasted 19 years and the plastic dome was still in tact with no leaks, the mechanism broke. 2 Tubes of Hi quality Permatex engine sealer and I hope for the best. I would be happy for 15 years of longevity. The old sealer was petrified from the UV and heat, came off like concrete. That gasket kept it sealed....
Patrick B - 04/15/2015The product is awesome but have one thing to add and that is for almost $80 The hardware should have been included. Had to make over an hour trip just to get screws. But besides that everything worked out perfect thank you so much.
Great product. Better UV protection than the clear and lighter vents.
Looks great installed.
Product came loose in the box without plastic wrap or bag. Not a big deal, but with a plastic window sliding on cardboard during travel, it scratches the heck out of the window. Also, no screws included.
Mike L - 09/06/2018 Don - 09/05/2019Thank you etrailer for such prompt, efficient service. We had a huge hail storm that took out my skylight vent - I ordered a new one, that was delivered within two days and is already installed and perfect.
Nice product no leaks
