TRA Australia's 14-inch caravan roof vents are designed to suit a 356 × 356 mm roof cut-out and include manual and powered ventilation options for caravans, RVs and motorhomes. While every model in this category uses the same roof opening size, the lid, motor, controls, roof-thickness suitability and operating features vary between models, so these details should be checked carefully before selecting a replacement or planning a new installation.
Why Choose a TRA 14-Inch Caravan Roof Vent?
| ✓ | 356 × 356 mm Cut-Out
Every roof vent in the TRA 14-inch range is designed to suit a 356 × 356 mm roof opening, providing a common starting point when comparing compatible models. |
| ✓ | Manual & Powered Options
Choose between straightforward manual ventilation and powered models designed to provide active airflow or extraction. |
| ✓ | Different Roof Thickness Options
Individual models suit different roof thicknesses, so the complete roof thickness should be measured and compared with the specifications of the selected vent. |
| ✓ | Different Lid & Operating Systems
Models can differ in lid design, opening method, motor configuration and controls, allowing customers to choose the functionality that suits their installation. |
| ✓ | Advanced Powered Models Available
Selected powered models provide additional ventilation functions, including features such as electric operation and rain-sensing functionality. |
| ✓ | Optional LED Light Garnish for Selected Models
TRA also offers a separate LED light garnish designed to suit compatible RVM and RVE model roof vents. LED lighting is not included as standard with 14-inch roof vents. |

The Cut-Out Is the Same — The Models Are Not
All TRA 14-inch roof vents in this category are designed for a 356 × 356 mm roof opening. This makes the cut-out size easy to compare, particularly when replacing an existing compatible roof vent.
However, a matching roof opening does not automatically make every model directly interchangeable. Roof thickness, lid design, motor, controls, electrical requirements and other operating features can vary between products, so each of these should be checked before ordering.
Manual vs Powered 14-Inch Roof Vents
Manual roof vents provide passive ventilation without a powered fan and are suited to applications where simple airflow is sufficient.
Powered models use a motor and fan to provide active airflow or extraction. Depending on the individual model, additional functions can include electric operation or rain-sensing features. Always refer to the individual product specifications because motor operation, controls and features vary across the range.
Check Your Roof Thickness
After confirming the 356 × 356 mm roof opening, measure the complete roof thickness at the installation location. TRA's 14-inch models can suit different roof thicknesses, so this measurement should be compared with the specifications of the individual roof vent before purchasing.
Optional LED Light Garnish
TRA 14-inch roof vents do not include an LED light garnish as standard. For customers wanting integrated lighting around the roof vent, TRA sells a separate LED light garnish designed to suit compatible RVM and RVE model roof vents.
Compatibility should be confirmed before ordering the garnish, as it is not intended as a universal accessory for every 14-inch roof vent.
Professional Installation Recommended
Correct installation and sealing are particularly important with any product fitted through a caravan or RV roof. The mounting area must be appropriately prepared and the roof vent correctly fitted and sealed to help prevent water ingress. Powered models must also be electrically installed correctly for the individual unit.
TRA Australia recommends professional installation by an appropriately licensed installer. Warranty does not cover faults or damage resulting from incorrect installation, including water ingress, electrical damage or damage caused during installation.
💡 TRA Expert Tip
If you're replacing an existing 356 × 356 mm roof vent, use the cut-out size as your starting point — not your final compatibility check. Measure the roof thickness and compare the lid, motor, controls and operating features of the replacement model before ordering.
