Question:
Hello, I am looking for a vent/fan for the top of my tear trailer. My roof is only about 1 thick. I have a rooftop tent on roof racks above the tear trailer. There is only about 4 inches clearance between the trailer and tent. I need a vent/fan combo that doesnt open like a clamshell. Maybe something with a removable cover or a cover that slides to the side instead of up? Any suggestions?

Expert Reply:
The Ultra-Fab Solar-Powered Plumbing Vent for Motor Homes - 7" Diameter x 3-3/4" Tall # UF53-945001 may be a good option for you. The fan will only work when you have solar charge which can work even on a cloudy day, but obviously would be covered if you had something on the roof rack obstructing it.
The Ventline Vanair Trailer Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - 6-1/4" Diameter - Smoke # VP-543SP is a great option if you will instead be using 12V power and it will still fit under the roof rack you referenced.
I've attached videos to assist. The Inside shroud can be trimmed to fit. I recommend using the LaSalle Bristol XTRM Universal Self-Leveling Sealant - White - Qty 1 # 34427034145-1 for installation.
