Then as noted, both Fantastic and Maxair hatches will occasionally stick closed. You may need to manually unstick them then clean and silicone the gasket and vent rim.


Either brand is generally a good product though Fantastic seems to have suffered a "cost improvement" decline after it was sold to Dometic
Clarification from the quote above, silicone grease or silicone spray lubricant, but NOT silicone sealant.
