kitchen vent broken March 19, 2018, 12:39:16 am Hello, I have a 2006, 26.5' rear kitchen. The non-powered vent in the kitchen blew up on the freeeway on my last trip. I've replaced vents and fans before but thought I would check with the forum if a standard 14-1/4 x 14-1/4 vent such as this one Ventline Ventadome Trailer Roof Vent - Manual - 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" - White... would fit? Thanks in advance.Bob

Re: kitchen vent broken Reply #3 – March 19, 2018, 11:19:13 am I also recommend you read posts, including the archives, about vent removal and installation. The old vent will come out a mangled mess - c'est la vie. - but careful removal of the LD-applied sealant will keep the roof intact and allow a good re-seal.Steve 1 Likes
