I give you a lot of credit as you have already done so much on your own. And I wouldn't even think of climbing on the roof period.

Both are 12 volt fans but the computer fan can be left on for hours or even days and uses hardly any electricity. I have replaced mine on all three of our motorhomes. You have to get a little inventive when it comes to mounting the fan but it is not that hard. <br /><br />Removing the old exterior cover is another thing. It is not supposed to be sealed down to the roof but comes with little brackets to keep it off the surface to allow for air circulation. You will have to cut into the old caulking to remove the old cover and then reseal with Dicor Self Leveling Sealant. It is not a complicated job but will involve sitting on the roof while you do it. Not a huge job for your mobile repair guy but it will cost $$.Crofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17634815881045387152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30562318.post-48755844082011384382016-07-04T10:08:29.748-07:002016-07-04T10:08:29.748-07:00I climbed the ladder to my 5th wheel up to the poi...I climbed the ladder to my 5th wheel up to the point where I could see the roof, but never had the nerve to actually hoist myself onto it. Fortunately I have sons and a son-in-law who are much more nimble and sure-footed than I am.
