Travelling with Bathroom Fan Running

We have maxxair covers over our two vents and leave them open, fans off, when traveling. Cooler is a relative term. Maybe `not as stuffy' is better.

This ^^^^^^^^^^^^ has been our experience too, only I intentionally left the vents open because of forum recommendations.

I wouldn't do it unless you have the secondary vent covers so you can open the vents in the rain. The standard vents are pretty flimsy and if they break while traveling in the rain, you can expect a mess upon arrival.

I don't see any harm in running the fan but the suction created by running at 60mph will likely make the fan pointless.

If you have a later model TT like our Jayco the fans no longer have to be open as they vent differently. they are even rain proof because of the newer design.

with the vent open moving down the road should suck the hot air out, don,t think you need to turn it on. try it on a test run.

Run ours in the 5th wheel to take some of the heat out while traveling. We also have the vent covers.
