‘78 Burro

[Jakapp]

Hi. I’m a new member. I just bought my 13’ Burro and LOVE it. I took it out on its maiden trip over a week. Learned how to hook it up, unhook and still learning to back it up. That is a challenge. I discovered a leak in the vent/fan that was installed by the previous owner. Thinking about getting a vent cover-any issues with them. I also need a new door or someone that can reseal a badly misshapen one. I’ve added weather stripping and it helps to some degree. Any suggestions on parts/replacent?

Welcome to FGRV Jan. Butyl tape is the thing to use for vent/window sealing and lasts for years. I installed a Max Air vent cover over my vent as I leave the vent open 24/7 but that won't help a leak from the vent shell seal. Can't help you with the door problem but someone else will chime in. Backing up is just a learning thing and will be second nature to you after a while.

Thanks-appreciate the quick response. I’ll try the butyl tape on the vent.
