What Is The Best Way To Mount The Exterior Half-Moon Trailer Vent?

Question:
Should you install with the vent down or facing forward, and the rear one facing back? The box trailer is only used occasionally.

Hey Richard,
The exterior trailer vent # WHMAV2 does not have a dedicated way it needs to install. You can configure it and mount it however you please. Typically for the best air flow one will be mounted in the front with the vent facing down to allow that fresh air in, and then the other vent mounted in the rear either facing down or with the vent facing the rear of the trailer. With that said you can mount it however you would like, or which ever way fits your trailer better.
What kind of trailer do you have?
