Is Redline 2-Way Pop-Up Roof Vent Waterproof When Fully Closed

Question

Question:

I want to install one of these on the front cap of my Motor Homes roof. I have a lot of heat build up between the windshield and the TV cabinets that I want to vent out. If I open the vent to the rear will it draw out the hot air when going down the road? My concern is how tight it is when closed and driving in a heavy rain, will it leak? Thanks for your help.

The Redline 2-Way Pop-Up Roof Vent, part # 9106-2756 adjusts in steps from fully closed to keep rain or air out, to fully open to let fresh air in.

This vent can be installed with the vent facing either direction and being able to open the vent toward the front or the back, it will let you add fresh air to cool down the TV cabinets you said have a lot of heat build-up.

Good morning Tim! The RV Designer Hitch Pin - 1/2" - Qty 1 #RD83GR measures a little over 3" from the clip hole to the edge of the straight part, just where it starts to bend. So that measurement is the span, and that tells us it'll…

Since heat rises I would at the very least put a set of the Trailer Vents #HMAV2-AVT2 near the top of the trailer to get the hottest air of the trailer out. What you could do for maximum air flow in your trailer is have a set facing forward in the…

I do have an option for you but we do not have any roof vents with 12 volt fans that would install on just a single piece of aluminum like what is on your dog box. The MaxxFan Plus Roof Vent part #MA00-04500K is designed for roofs between 2" -…
