Frequently Asked Questions
What is a camper furnace vent cover used for?
Camper furnace vent covers protect your RV’s furnace exhaust and intake openings from debris, moisture, and insects. They help maintain proper airflow and prevent damage to internal components.
Do I need an insect screen for my RV furnace?
Yes, an insect screen or bug screen is essential for keeping out mud daubers, wasps, and other pests that can clog the exhaust or intake, leading to dangerous airflow blockages.
How do I know which RV furnace exhaust vent cover fits my unit?
Check your furnace brand and model—common brands like Suburban and Dometic list compatible parts. Our product listings also specify fitment details and part numbers for easy matching.
Can I install a furnace bug screen myself?
Most RV furnace bug screens, such as those from Camco or JCJ, are designed for simple DIY installation with included springs or clips. No tools or permanent modifications are required.
What’s the difference between an RV furnace vent screen and a vent cover?
A vent screen blocks pests and debris from entering, while a vent cover offers additional weather protection. Many RV owners use both for optimal safety and performance.
Are Suburban and Dometic furnace parts interchangeable?
In most cases, no. Suburban and Dometic (formerly Atwood) use different designs, so it's important to select parts specifically made for your furnace’s brand and model.
What are mud dauber screens for RV furnaces?
Mud dauber screens are specialized insect screens that prevent wasps and mud daubers from building nests in your furnace’s exhaust vent, which could lead to overheating or fire hazards.
Is a floor vent cover necessary for RV furnaces?
Yes, floor vent covers help direct airflow into the living space and prevent dirt and objects from falling into the ducts. Options with dampers let you control the heat flow.
