Vent

Have a Fantastic vent in the bath and having a time trying to get the screen off. I know I removed it on last rv and this ones the same. Around 90 here today, inside of rv over 100, had hoped it would be more flexible. I can get ahold of the little tab but sure feels like something going to break. Any tips, do you need to rotate it somehow? Thanks

A picture might help. There have been different styles of screens.

Just yank on it. My experience with the fan screen on mine was that it was so nasty that I pulled it off and tried to wash it with soap and water. It was still scuzzy, so I bought the replacement screen like you have in your picture.

I did that too. That's that a lot of work. Big improvement. Certainly a visual improvement, that's for sure. If you think the blades on your Fantastic Fan are dirty, you should see the blades on the blower in the stove hood.
