Replacement Gasket for MaxxFan Dome Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan  

Updated 01/27/2026 | Published 08/25/2024

Question:

I believe I have the MaxxFan Dome Roof Vent 6. Rain is coming in-a lot. I climbed up and saw that it is caulked all around. I put silicon over the 2 screws just in case that is where water is getting in. I noticed that the foam gasket is shot. Can I order a new one, or is there a generic gasket I could buy that lies flat and curves in a circle so that it fits right?

Hi Cecily; the gasket you're referring to on the MaxxFan Dome Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan # MA00-03812B must be the butyl tape. You can replace it with # AL28FJ or # 344270341410-1 depending on the width you want. You can see this in step 2 of the installation instructions for the vent.

Hi Cecily, how did things go with replacing the gasket on your MaxxFan Dome Roof Vent? Did the new butyl tape help stop the rain from getting in? Your update could make it easier for the next person with the same issue.

The tape was good, but it turned out that there was a hairline crack in the fan frame that was surprisingly allowing a lot of water in. So we replaced the fan.
