Sounds like a complicated installation. Is there a way to inspect it to make sure there's a leak? What's the fix? Is it a DIY project or does it have to be removed and reinstalled the right way?

I've watched a couple of Youtube videos about installing the unit. They show a plastic roof flange that sits on the roof and has some tape sealant under it with some screws holding it to the roof and then sealant around the edge of the flange and on the screw heads to seal it. The fan unit then sits on the plastic flange. Is that the "flanges" you're talking about? Is that something I can see from inside the camper or do I need to be on the roof and remove the fan unit? Sorry....I'm confused. I'm not sure exactly where the leak would be either.
