Desertswimmer Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 We have a new center roof vent that is opening by itself under high wind conditions. It does close, and seems to be shut good, no leaks. This has also now happened twice going down the road! Boy howdy did that wake me up driving. lol We have decided to put a Vent Cover over it. Opinions on MaxxAir or Camco Vent Covers please. We do not plan to put in a fan as we have a fan on the bathroom vent. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill B Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 I like the "snorkel" type Maxxair. It allows to open the vent even in driving rain, and it protects it from the sun and hail. We've used ours in a hurricane one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newt Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Another vote for MaxxAire. We have both kinds. Newt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch_12078 Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 I prefer Camco's Aero-Flo vent covers for their larger vent area and easily removed top for cleaning. Our current coach came with MaxxAire covers installed though, and I have no plans to change them unless they get damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark and Dale Bruss Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 WE use a MaxxAire Turbo over the bathroom vent because we never close it. A practice from out boating days of always having some outside airflow in the rig. The Turbo doesn't allow rain in. Two years ago we went through a serious hail storm and the extra body in the MaxxAire survived just fine. An interesting thing, the bathroom vent cover, 7 years under the MaxxAire cover disintegrated from the sun. Even though we never close it, we replaced the lid which of course, because of age, required a new vent fan assembly. The sun can be rough.

Yarome Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Another vote for the Maxxaire's. Over the years, they seem to not become as brittle as some of the others I've had in the past. Actually have Maxxaire II's on this rig. Really great airflow... hinged for easy cleaning... love the translucent smoke color when the suns up. It puts a nice warm glow through the rig.
