Can A MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent Be Installed Facing The Front?
Updated 08/24/2022 | Published 08/23/2022
Question:
Hello. My Maxxfan doesnt have clearance to open rearward, as designed. Is it okay to install it open to the front so long as its fully closed while driving? This is for the roof of my towable RV. Stupid me - I didnt realize this until after it was installed so looking for a relatively easy solution.

Not to worry!
You can absolutely install your MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan - Manual Lift # MA00-06401K in the other direction, it will not affect the operation of the fan.
You will just want to make sure that your fan stays closed while driving, and you'll be good to go.
