Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Replacement Dome for Fan-Tastic Vent RV Roof Vents, part number FVK-1020-19.Replace the damaged cover on your Fan-Tastic RV Roof Vent without replacing the entire unit. This will save the expense and hassle of replacing your entire fan or vent assembly when those are working properly. So, if a fallen limb, weather, or low clearance issue has damaged your cover, this is a perfect solution. It operates the same because it is the same.It's a perfect size to fit your 14 x 14 vent or fan. The bracket is designed to line up perfectly with your Fan-Tastic vent arm. Just like on your old one, it's going to have that same bubble design to keep the water from pooling on top, and also it has that over-lip design.
That way, the elements don't get up underneath and inside. It's a tinted polyurethane that's going to block out the harsh UV rays.Jason P. left us a review stating, "This dome cover worked exactly as intended. Installation was simple. I still had the screws from the old part and took all of 90 seconds.
It functions flawlessly."Now that we've gone over the features, I'll go ahead and show you how to get it installed. Our old one was cracked, so I've already gone ahead and removed it. The new one is a direct replacement. The first thing we can do is take off the protective cover. Now, it doesn't come with any hardware, but one thing our customers have noted on our website is that we can easily reuse our old hardware.The first thing we want to do is line our guide bracket opening up here with the arm.
So, you have to turn it an angle and make sure that it can easily slide. Once it's in place, we can have somebody run inside and lower down the arm, and I'm going to help guide it down. That way we can line up the hinge. Then with it all the way down, we'll want to line up our hinge, and then we can reinstall our old hardware. Now, note that the larger holes are not used.Perfect.
Let's try it out. That's going to complete our look and installation of the Replacement Dome for Fan-Tastic Vent RV Roof Vents, part number FVK1020-19.

Replaces the cover on your Dometic FanTastic roof vent for motorhomes and enclosed trailers. Smoke-colored polyethylene dome filters UV rays while allowing light in.Perfect replacement lid for fan-tastic vent 2000DMS older model on 2005 class-c mtrh...exactly the same. 4 screw installation and the hole patern same. Easy install 30 minutes.
The screw holes for the metal slide are very week. The last ones broke from wind while closed. This new one I'm going to re in force with flex glue prior to installation. The design is obviously flawed,as this is the 3rd one of these that have failed. My 5th wheel is a 2018 Fox Mountain, so it's not that old.
The dome is too lightweight for the Az.sun The factory lid that came with our Fantastic fan fell apart, this one will too. Hope to get at least 3 years out of it by installing a cover over it.
You guys are my go to when I need anything for my 5th wheel, Ed is awesome at communicating every step with me through the process until my product arrives at my doorstep.
Thanks etrailer
Perfect replacement for FanTastic roof vent cover. Shipped quickly.
Perfect fit! ETrailer comes through again, Perfectly packed and scratch free cover for my 17 year old FanTastic vent. Thanks for the terrific service yet again!
I bought this vent cover because the plastic tabs that hold the slider for the lifting mechanism had broken off my old cover. I tried gluing them on but that only lasted less then a year and they broke again. I was glad to see the replacement unit had reinforced tabs that looked much stronger than the original. Also, the hinge holes matched the original so I only had to remove the screws on the old hinge and replace the cover, I wish the new cover came with new screws as the old screws were corroded and I had to find suitable replacements. After the installation the cover would not close all the way. After fiddling around with it, I discovered that the tabs on the new unit where the lifting mechanism attaches are offset from the original, so the lifting mechanism was binding, and not allowing the cover to close. I made some 9/16" spacers from some tubing I had in the garage along with some longer mounding screws and that solved the problem. I don't know if all Fan-Tastic vents are the same, so I cannot say if this will be a problem for everyone. See photos
Covers and arms delivered timely and the video for installation was spot on. The parts tech was knowledgeable and very helpful and the prices were very fair.
Had no issues with placing the order as well as the time frame in which it was shipped. The new vent cover went on very smoothly, fit perfect and works great. Great job etrailer !!
I apologize that his is late. I purchased and installed the product while vacationing in Maine in 2019. It seemed to work completely fine for the remainder of the time and returning to Texas. We didn't get to use it during 2020, because of the "virus". By the Summer of 2021, something else started going awry with another part in the vent system, but I never had an opportunity to trouble shoot it because we got rear ended on an Interstate Hwy in VA, and the RV trailer it was mounted on was totaled.

Its been more than two years, now going on 4, actually! As I stated in the accompanying paragraph above, I no longer own the unit. The RV trailer the product was installed on, was rear ended and totaled in 2021.
It fit perfectly and took less than 15 minutes to replace the cover and crank.

Im incredibly satisfied with the replacement vent. Zero problems. And the best thing about is that now I always remember to lower the vent before driving into the garage.

etrailer never disappoints. this roof vent fit a fantastic van model 7300 perfectly. all screws holes lined up perfectly on top of my northern lite 8-11. 15 minute install thanks again. Alben
Alex was very helpful, polite, and performed all facets of her job quickly and accurately. She asked if there was anything else she could do for me after our transaction was complete, and if I had any questions before ending our conversation. Overall, a very good experience, and would highly recommend etrailer to anyone needing their products.
The right product. Simple & easy to install, a good fit for the fantastic fan.
As described. Fit perfectly. Reused screws. Video should include the fact that the screws are often buried in roof sealant and applying new sealant will be necessary.
Great service on your part. Part is a little overpriced, but that is Fantastic's fault.
was the exact replacement part i needed and came in a reasonable time.
This cover is an exact match to my broken cover. Price was great, too
Fit correctly. Easy install. One year later no problems.

This product is fine however I will not do business with you again due to being sent the wrong item for a different purchase. Your customer service took the position of the wrong item ordered my position being item ordered was per website application description. No need to contact me again. I would appreciate being d from your customer information index.
Great improvement to the older design of lift arm attachment tabs!
We ordered a lid for our RV fan, but there was no mention on the etrailer website of a high dome or low dome lid, and the model number of our fan lid had been worn off by the weather, so we carefully looked at the measurements on the website and ordered the lid, after discussing with our RV repair guy. We live in Canada, so with shipping and the dollar exchange, the total price was CAN$XX, although the price on the website was $USXX. When the lid came and our repair guy opened the box, he told us that we needed a low lid, which etrailer did not appear to have on its website, so we ordered it elsewhere, and requested a mailing label from etrailer to return the item. To our surprise, we were told that we would have to pay for the return of the item ourselves. We checked with DHL and were told the cost would be CAN$XXX, and it was similar with Canada Post. UPS gave us a price of $XX. If we paid this and returned the item, etrailer would refund us only the US58, and not the shipping cost, and US58 works out to about CAN$XX, so by paying CAN$XX in postage, we would really only be getting back about $X and would still be out the CAN$XX we originally paid for the item!! What a ripoff! Etrailer obviously has a mailing contract with DHL, and since they only charged US$8.99 in original shipping cost, why couldn't they send us a DHL label for the same amount to return the item? We would have paid that mailing cost, but no, they offered nothing! Needless to say, we will never shop with them again. Anyone want to buy a brand new high dome fan lid??
Service was overwhelming. My done shipped earlier than ETA. THANKS
Perfect replacement. etrailer always comes thru as expected
