Roof Vent Recommendation for 20 foot Car Hauler Trailer
Question:
I have a 20’ V nose car trailer. I’m moving to Florida and storing the trailer hopefully not in the sun but my question is how many roof vents should I install.Also kn your vents do you sell the vent and the installation kit both together. Thank you.

Normally I would say you would probably get by with 1 but since you'll be in a hotter climate in Florida I'd say go ahead and install 2 if you're planning on keeping them open during storage. If you're hesitant, you can always start off with 1 vent and then add another if you feel that it's needed.
I'm assuming that you aren't looking for a powered vent. If that's the case then I highly recommend going with the MaxxAir Mini which comes in Black # MA00-03750 or White # MA00-03700. The reason I recommend this over other standard options is because this comes with the cover so that you can leave the vent open at all times and not have to worry about bugs or rain getting into your trailer.
We don't have any kits that come with the vents and the hardware needed for the install but you can easily acquire the installation kit with part # 344270KITW if you have a white roof or part # 344270KITB if your roof is closer to beige and you're wanting to blend the sealant with the roof color.
