Can the existing vent cover open 100% without binding up against the new ub1500 cover. Are the UB1500 covers hinged on one side?

I believe ours opens fully. When we use the power switch to open it, it has never hit the cover.

When our Fantastic Fan is fully opened, it touches the vent cover but there is excellent air flow. The vent cover is easily removed by pulling out four snap pins.

Yes it sure will Robert. I have the vents on my new 2014 Big Sky Montana and was concerned of this but they have a "stop" on them that keeps them from tearing off the cover. They work perfect. :-) I am not sure about the hinges as I didnt install them but possible someone else can help you there.

I believe the promo for the fantastic vent cover says it will open 100 % I love that I purchased the cover,I wish it opened up more !!!....Sure is great when it is pouring rain or very windy !!!! Easy to install well worth the purchase , and you will be happy for the vent cover !!!

Hi Connian; Both small sides have mesh windows, one zips up (if desired), the other does not (permanently attached). The top zips open if desired as well as the entry door. The back side has a mesh window (permanent). So, it vents on all four sides and the top. This is a wonderful product, we have two. It collapses easily for transportation and has clasps to hold it closed, plus a carry handle.

Yes. That is what I did. Snapped the cover off the new box and onto the existing box without changing anything inside.

it fits over the existing Fantastic Fan. You unscrew 4 of the screws and screw down the included plates. These plates have posts that allow you to slide cotter pins through them. the vent cover can be removed without tools at any time.

The top of the vent is not attached, it just sits on top. There's a separate cup inside that the air blows up against that cap. The air then escapes out below the cup and through the bottom of the vent, which is open. But no, I do not think you can turn it upside down. Too bad though, it does work well.

The door opens from the left.. hinge on right..not interchangeable.. very quiet operating, holds temp OK. This product is better than my previous brand.

14" square is the standard opening and this vent will fit like the oem vent. Note that it does not come with the necessary caulk seal for around the roof hinge, but I picked some up at the local auto parts store when I installed mine.

They work well on the horizontal ones that flip up and down. You'll need to just flip them all the way up, and make sure the bracket clamp openings grab from below. I hope that makes sense. Just know that this will reduce some of the air flow and will make the vent unable to be closed completely.

Not sure the top might fall off, picture right under the circular top, that is where the dryer air vents. I think the entire thing will install upside down, but not sure how well it will vent. Gravity hold the top part to the assembly as well. Its too cold to go out and look!

I believe the vent should be open. It is very difficult on mine to move the metal liner so the vent is closed so I don't think it is meant to be twisted shut. I reread the instructions and there is no mention of closing the vent nor does it mention the vent at all. I did find one problem with the boiley is that it is very easy to discard the instructions as they are part of the wrapping rather than a separate leaflet. I had to retrieve mine from the trash as my husband had thrown it away.

The holes for the hinges are pre-drilled. I would not have the ability to change the way the door opens but someone that is handier with tools would probably be able to.

Hey Sonny I don't think you can remove the hinge off with out breaking it. I think you would have to ask the seller if they make an older Vent and try attaching a picture this is what I did when I first purchased the Vent. Also make sure you give them the year and make of your Trailer or RV my friend. I hope this will help you God Bless

Agreed to previous answer by Gary Colyer. Do I notice much difference from regular vent cover with one side open? Well, I can't really tell the difference to be honest; however, it should increase air flow as I reasonably consider the design. My rational to justify changing regular vent cover with one side opening was 1- cover on it was showing age and there was a crack 2- ease of cleaning 3- spent enough $$$ for my RV so i see no reason to save $10 or so for a product with a better design.Just be careful with your footing when you are up on the roof, read instruction before you go up there, then it will be an easy installation. Good luck. Agreed to previous answer by Gary Colyer. Do I notice much difference from regular vent cover with one side open?

Did you contact the company? I know they fix their hair dryers if you send them back. Try buying a piece of screening in a hardware store and cutting it to fit the vent opening.

Theres a little gravity flap inside. I'm not really sure why it's there. It would still work if the unit were horizontal and on it's back (indoor vent screen facing up).

It pulls over tightly and there are velcro tabs that lineup with the frame. Fairly easy. You need a lter to get the vent cover on the very top.Charlie (352) 442-3395
