What is this?

During a recent storm I had a vent cover knocked off and some other cover. The vent is located in front of the bathroom vent fan inside the right wall and the other vent?? is in front of the vent fan in the front wall of the bathroom. On the roof the ?? is about 6" round with a metal grid slightly above the roof line. I can't take a pic because it is raining and I've got a board over it. Any ideas? Thanks for any help.

That's a standard vent cover like one that got knocked off, but not the ???

OK, I'm sorry but I'm out. I can't get a mental picture of "inside the right wall and the other vent?? is in front of the vent fan in the front wall of the bathroom"

The ?? vent(or hole) is directly in front of the vent fan and must go up through the front wall of the bathroom unless it is in the roof only.

Since you described the vent as having a metal grid, I would guess it is an attic vent cover.

Just wondering if his antenna was still attached, or maybe he didn't see it missing.

Without a pic, it's a guessing game.

That's definitely a possibility, but I've never had a RV that had one. I'll take a picture today if the rain let's up.

I had a second vent on a class A for the refrig and it had a motor and a fan to help remove the heat from the large refrig. Also had a vent for the washer and dryer, maybe one of those.

That's what it is...just talked to the factory. Now if will quit raining, I'll get a picture and hope the damage is only the cover.

It looks very similar...is it on the roof? I now have the parts to replace the attic vent. Any tips on removing the existing sealant to get to the screws? Thanks!

Possible

Yes this is on the roof.

If the threaded stud in the center of the base is intact you could unscrew the cover from the new vent and install it on the old base.
