My plan/Hope is to replace the bathroom fan with a remote one. But only replacing the fan and mounting bracket and not the entire housing/etc.

Be aware of the additional height above the roof

For folks with travel trailers and flat roofs, I believe the roof air sticks up higher, even after installing vent covers.
But since our fifth wheel roof is arched and
I put covers on all 3 of my vents, the bathroom cover ended up sticking up a good 3” above my roof air, which was previously the highest point.

QUESTION: Has anyone replaced their tiny bathroom fan with a MaxxFan Deluxe (#00-07500K)? How did the swap work out for you?
Yes, a $90k+ MSRP coach and GD could not spring for a good fan in the bathroom!!!!! I think GD cheap'ed out on that feature!

This is good to know as I have been wanting to add these covers to both our kitchen area vent fan and the bath vent fan. Since I had vent covers on our previous two rigs and found the cover contacted the vent cover before fully extended and since our fans in both cases were manual, I just raised the vent lid until it contacted the vent, but since the vent fan in our kitchen area has a motor I was concerned it would damage the motor if it was not allowed to finish raising the lid and have held up purchasing one. Since it has a rain sensor we are not concerned with leaving the vent opened if it were to rain but want to have the option of leaving the vent open and fan operating while travelling in hot weather and if we need venting while cooking while raining.

We also put the Max Air covers on. They really work great, now can leave vent open even in the rain. The new fan in the bathroom is low enough to real from the floor we just got the 10 speed manual fan. With the manual you can leave it open just a bit, not closed or open all the way.

Another thread on this topic.....

I ended up doing the replacement of the tiny fan myself and so glad we did. $400 is not bad for the fan replacement by the dealer, the 7500 series cost $300 plus two tubes of Dicor ($22). I would have been happy to pay $78 for labor because it took me three or so hours to replacement, but that's me because the old Dicor sealant is really hard to remove - that alone took at least two hours and I rubbed my fingerprints off (LOL).
One day I may replace the kitchen fan with the same #00-07500K model to make them match, but that will wait until it fails.-----------------------------------------------------------
