Can the MaxxFan Mini Plus Manual RV Roof Vent be Mounted on Trailer Side Wall

Question:

Hi can the Maxx fan be mounted on top of side in cargo trailer rather than in roof/ceiling? Id like to avoid any breaks in ceiling and would like some powered ventilation when Im inside. 16x7 cargo trailer, no windows, bug screen for rv door, 2 stock vents in place at top left and bottom right. OR do you have other suggestions for venting? I do plan on adding the Redline 2 way pop ups to replace the stock vents Thanks

The MaxxFan Mini Plus Manual RV Roof Vent part # MA00-03851 is too large and heavy to be mounted on the side wall of a trailer. Instead, I recommend using the MaxxFan Dome Plus Roof Vent part # MA00-03810B which although is not technically supposed to be mounted on the side of a trailer either, we have seen many instances of this without issue and it will be much better suited for this than the above due to the smaller size and water resistance.
