After a recent caravanning trip, we got home to find the dome cover on the caravan's shower vent was 'missing'....it had been torn off because someone forgot to close the hatch before we hit the road.
In this video I'll show you how to replace the entire shower vent assembly, because I couldn't track down a replacement dome hatch for my particular shower vent.
The process was fairly straightforward, although the amount of sealant that had been used between the underside of the original vent and the roof of the caravan, necessitated me using a hammer and chisel to separate the vent from the roof, resulting in a small amount of damage to the edge of the roof sheet around the hole.
When I installed the new shower vent, I used some 25mm x 48mm adhesive backed weather strip and a small amount of sealant along the edges, to ensure a water-tight seal.
Wiring up the fan switch was easy to do and I used spade connectors that I insulated with heatshink and then covered the connection with electrical tape.
