2002 FR shamrock hybrid

I was hoping someone could tell me what the inside ceiling layers are. My laminate has become unsecure in places and i know there is foam under that. Is there some type of plywood that the foam and laminate are attached to? And if it is, what is the average thickness?

Bikendan, there really is nothing a picture will show. I just want to know what the layers of the roof / ceiling are. Example, laminate, styrofoam,plywood. And the usual thickness of the plywood. Thanks

My 21SS is a 2014. Assuming yours has a shower skylight or ceiling vent fan you should be able to remove the interior trim to see what your ceiling is comprised of. I'm not certain how well that will show the very top layer, which may be more visible from the refridgerator roof vent. I think the roofs are channeled Styrofoam sandwiched by luan, the top layer of which has aluminium supports running side to side.

I would remove the inner skylight if you have one. That will show you what you have in the roof area. later models may not be constructed exactly the same.

These are pics taken at the factory 2017. Not of Roo but my guess is they’re all pretty similar. At least may give you idea of what’s up there. There are four roofs stacked on their sides in the first 2 pics, last pic is full roof view on it’s side also.

Your Roo probably won't have the channels in the foam (or at least not the big ones), since you don't have ducted AC.

Agree, don't think Roo/Shamrock hybrids probably didn't have dusted a/c that far back.
Probably old school "Blast from the Center" ceiling unit with dial controls.

My 2012 didn't have ducted AC. They seem to have it now, so it's been sometime between 2012 and 2019.

My 2008 Roo 23SS had ducted a/c. So, it was a little earlier than 2012.

Might be size based. Mine was a Roo 19. Smaller and no slide.

The small models, 19 and smaller, didn't have ducted a/c.
My 2007 23SS had ducted a/c.
