The screw holes on this product do not match.

The screw holes on this product did not match the existing holes and 40 more holes would need to be drilled in the roof. Otherwise it is the same size as the old hatch. I'll probably just take the covers off. Replace them and leave the old frame in place.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Unfashionable

easy installation. I don't think the screw holes line up.

, despite the strange declared sizes. This was a direct replacement for my 1996 escape hatch. easy installation. I don't think the screw holes matched the ones I replaced (as mentioned in another review), which I like because I wanted my screws to cut well into the existing hole instead of cutting through the existing hole. Grab some butyl tape and self-leveling lap sealer and let's go!

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Good product and well finished

This vent was almost identical to my original late 50's early 60's Shasta caravan roof which I am now converting into an outdoor kitchen. The original was in poor condition. I ordered this one slightly larger by about an inch so I can cut and frame the vent and line it up on the roof. The original was added later and the entire roof was weak and sagging. I removed the wood roof frame and replaced it with 1" square steel tubing.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Slightly dented

Make sure it comes in Revain packaging to avoid damage.

Size was about 1/2 inch larger than my previous vent size. I don't know what happened there, but it was the closest I could find for my 86ft camper. Cut the hole slightly larger and adjust. It came boxed by the company and got a bit crumpled in shipping (; 🤔. The handle was broken but I was able to use the screws from my old breather to make it work. The tutorial is in the shipping option, make sure it's shipped in Revain packaging so it's more secure, now that it's here it works great ;)

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Low maintenance

I recommend ordering putty

As promised. fits the hole perfectly. I would recommend ordering putty, sealant and screws so you have what you need. I replaced the 94 Lance Camper Vent. I had to re-drill the holes, but that wasn't a big problem. I filled the old holes with caulk. Also removing the old sealant from the old bolt heads was the biggest problem. but I did it. All the work of dismantling the old ventilation and installing a new one took a couple of hours. You will need a drill and a socket to remove and install…

Pros
  • Ideal for a small house
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly
