Can someone recommend a low profile roof vent?

I need a low profile vent to use in a leer shell. Something like a fantastic vent but that does not trick up as high.

not sure if you mean active or passive, but this might provoke you to thought: https://www.westmarine.com/marine-ventilation

Add the word "mushroom" to your vent searches

Look at four wheel campers website. They use a lower profile fantastic fan housing and flat dome. I bought two through my FWC dealer, and yes they were more expensive but much lower profile if that’s what you need. It’s not available for normal retail, you can try to source the separate parts but it’s easier to buy from FWC. Just expensive. But it’s an option.

That looks like it is what I need. Can you tell me how high it sticks up when closed?

I'm planning to use these on my old RV resto project:

Because it's an all steel galvanized RV, so what the hell. Low profile too.


BUT...I want some kind of fans in the vents. Most are tiny and crappy. So I was thinking maybe Fantastic instead. Then recently saw these on Amazon. Obviously Chinese, but what isn't. 3-speed reversable fans that replace the trim/screen in standard RV vents. Retrofit. I'll probably try them with the low profile steel vents:
