Vent?
Silly question, I know where my furnace and fridge vent but I have two of these on the roof of my Freedom Express and I don't know what they are. I'm sure someone can tell me Click image for larger version Name: ImageUploadedByForest River Forums1445778891.508605.jpg Views: 137 Size: 98.2 KB ID: 92786

They are vents for you black and gray tanks. The photo appears to show this one has been damages slightly. Keep an eye on it.

One is the vent to your black tank, the other to your grey. And it looks like time to replace them as UV light has pretty well ruined them.

About $10 each, about an hours time total and some Dicor lap sealant.

They'll last longer if you paint them with Krylon or Rustoleum. Paint them white.

This little kit has everything you need, and is what I used to replace mine.

Still want some Dicor lap seal, though, IMHO.
