Maxxair vents covers-worth it?
Keep seeing some RV's with Maxxair/Maxxair II vent covers. How well do they work? Reduced airflow? Rain or water leaks? Installation issues? Thanks in advance.

I installed a MaxAir cover over my automatic FantasticFan, and had to take it off. The lid on the fantastic fan hit the underside of the MaxAir dome and wouldn't allow it to completely open. Since it wouldn't completely open, the limit switch on the fan wouldn't allow the fan to run. Removed the MaxAir dome and replaced it with a FantasticFan dome, and it works fine.
That is strange. I have two Fantastic Fans with the Model 800 Fan Mate covers and the fans work perfectly. Yes, the lids do hit the underside of the MaxAir dome but the fans work just fine. They open and close just as they were designed to do. On mine, the motor starts/stops running just as the fan lid leaves/reaches the bottom and is ready to seal. Perhaps your limit switch is positioned a bit differently than mine.

Here is the one I have(bottom one).
So the one pictured on bottom with round vent 2 bars I have just cover do you know if ya think anyone would purchase just cover part and what I should ask for it if I could even sell it
You won't get a response from Barney. Mainly because you're responding to a topic that's 9 years old, Barney hasn't been on here in years, and per the rules you can't sell anything on this forum. If you want to sell your cover, try Craigslist or FB marketplace.
