The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent does work with the lid closed, as it has a ceiling fan mode which allows you to close the lid and use the the vent in the same way a ceiling fan in a home operates. So it isn't the exact same thing because there isn't a way to vent the air with the lid closed, but it still allows air circulation and does so with equal performance power.

This roof vent has 10 speeds and has a rain shield so it can be used in all types of weather, and even has a thermostat which will automatically turn the fan on if it gets too warm in your RV. The MaxxFan Deluxe also comes in your choice of colors:

- White: MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent with 12V Fan and Thermostat # MA00-05100K

- Smoke: MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent with 12V Fan and Thermostat # MA00-06200K

For installation you will need the Roof Vent Installation Kit # 344270KITW.

The MaxxFan Deluxe Roof Vent w/ 12V Fan and Thermostat item #MA00-06200K uses up to 5-Amps to operate when running and up to 9-Amps for startup. So probably between 90 - 100 hours if it was the only thing running and you left it on.

The rule of thumb here in most cases is, the smoother the surface and glossier the paint, the shorter the nap. With the roof of the trailer being fairly smooth a 3/4" or less nap would be the better option. The manufacturer recommends a…
