loss of air volume, possible equipment damage and an expensive cleaning process.
A special foam gasket is placed between the roof material and the subframe of the air
conditioner to guard against water leakage. The air conditioner is subjected to wind pressures
along with motor vibration during normal operation. Inspect the mounting bolts for tightness
to ensure there is no leakage or looseness at least annually. Re-tighten bolts when they are
loose. DO NOT over tighten these bolts as it may damage this gasket. The air conditioner
gasket is a wearable part that eventually will need to be replaced. To gain access to the bolts,

The 12-volt DC attic fan (or powered roof vent) allows fresh air to circulate through the
recreation vehicle. Do not leave the attic fan open when the recreation vehicle is stored or
unattended for long periods.
High winds, other unusual conditions or obstructions may prevent the dome from closing;
the resulting leakage could cause non-warrantable damage.
To use your fan most effectively, close all vents and slightly open
a window on a shaded side of your recreation vehicle. You are
