Camco 40480 RV Roof Vent Kit

I bought one of these in a local RV shop to replace an old cracked leaky vent in a 1990 Tioga Montara 21ft Class C motorhome. The new one fit perfectly. The sealing flange was a slightly larger diameter than the old one so it forced me to do the job right and scrape off all of the extra old goo that someone had put around the edges (that does not work in order for the sealant to work it must be between the surfaces being sealed. Putting extra goo around the edges does nothing because once the rig flexes a little it peels back and the water runs right under it).

Replacing the old crappy vent with this new one has brought a feeling of new life to my RV's kitchen.

The old (stock) vent had a plastic crank handle. This one is metal. The crank action in the old vent caught and bounced when I closed it. The action in this one is smooth. It's not grade A materials, being made in China and being inexpensive but it is a good value. If I have to replace it again 10 years from now, I will still consider it money well spent.

As I said, I bought it at a local RV shop but I liked it enough that I am buying two more of them to replace the other two vents in my RV roof, which are NOT currently leaking. It made that much of an improvement to my rig. It's significantly cheaper here. Thanks, Amazon.

Minus one star because the sharp edge of the sealing flange sliced my finger open during installation. I'll be more careful with the other two.

Unit is built well, but you must order the install kit and sealing putty that is recommended with item. All thats included is just the vent. Directions were easy to follow and includes a template of how large of a hole to cut in the roof. I would buy again if I needed another one.

this roof vent was a perfect fit for the opening that the old broken one came out of. the only problem I have is the crank to raise and lower vent was too long, so I just took the crank off so camper can fold down. now I just use crank when I need it, and put it in drawer when not in use.

This was a good replacement for my craced vent. Even though I bought the same brand, the holes did not line up, so I had to be sure to seal the old holes and drill new ones. Be aware that no mounting kit or hardware comes with it.

I bought a roof vent kit before and it came with a MUCH deeper garnish. This vent will only fit a roof thickness of up to 2-1/4". No mention of this vital statistic in the product description! Now I have to go to the expense and trouble of returning this item :(
