Can RV Roof Vent MaxxFan Have Fan Added Later
Updated 10/30/2025 | Published 02/25/2025 >
Question:
Can I add a 12 V fan kit to the non powered vents? Just purchased a 20 ft enclosed trailer with an optional Maxxair non powered vent and Im concerned I will want more air flow to evacuate heat. Thank you.

Hey Devon, your best option is going to be to replace the entire fan assembly with one that has a fan built into it like the Hike # SAR29GR. There isn't an upgrade kit for the MaxxFan roof vents to add a fan to them at this time. These make a pretty big difference so I think you'd like having the fan.

Hey Devon, how did things turn out with the Hike vent you were looking at for your trailer? Did the built-in fan give you the extra airflow you needed to keep the heat down? Your update could make it easier for the next person with the same concern.
