[Rhodes22-list] Vent Fan

[Eric]

I had/have condensation issues at certain times of year here in GA and the vent fan really helps. With that said, I seem to have to replace it every 2 to 3 years. Just my experience, and it is worth it to me. 

Thanks,
Eric J

Stan (whom I assume learned of my desire for a vent in the anchor rode storage space by reading the list) put in a solar vent for me, no charge. On the hottest days, mid to high nineties, there was no heat at all when I entered the cabin.  It is a great addition, and keeps mould down, too.  I am now on the upper Chesapeake, and the sun is still hot up here.  I just replaced Stan's original vent.  They don't seem to live very long, but it's a worthwhile expense.
