DOES THE VENT ON TOP CLOSE TO KEEP OUT RAIN?
933517
The vent does close but I am not sure if it totally keeps the rain out, I keep my igloo under a table in my yard so that when it does rain my outdoor cats are more protected. The vent can be adjusted to keep open or closed. Actually, I put a piece of clear packing tape over the vent so I know for sure water won't get in. I hope this helps...

It sure does! We have kept ours outside for > 365 days directly in ALL types of weather & have had absolutely no problems whatsoever.

It does close., but the angle the vent is at, I don't think rain would get in even if it were open.

Yes the vent does close with a simple rotation and is a very small vent anyway. If you are worried about rain coming in be more concerned about having a door on the house because water will splash up from the ground and go inside that way.

Absolutely no, but it's very easy to avoid the water coming in, I just cover the vent with duck tape and problem solved!

The top comes down over the sides, but can easily be blown upwards, and it is vented underneath, so if it rains and blows at the same time (which it often does), this would not protect the top from getting wet. If you need to keep the top dry this would probably not be the cover for you. Besides, as I mentioned in an earlier comment, our entire cover ripped to shreds in a matter of weeks, leaving the entire trailer exposed.

Not that comes with it. There is a weatherproof cover that drapes over it, which so far has been very effective during rain. I think the center rocks and the propane outlet are a bit higher than the edge, so a flat center cover wouldn't work; perhaps a raised one would, though.

Yes it is vented at top. But any outside umbrellas need to be closed if a wind storm comes up. I try to do this for all my umbrellas

It goes over your existing vent cover, so it shelters the vent from rain and you can leave the vent open. It has a screen on it too, so bugs don't get in. We've added two to our RV and they're great, since we can now leave the vents open for ventilation and not have to worry about the rain coming in. I can't say how easy they are to install because DH did it, but it must not have been too hard, because he didn't complain. Good luck!

The vents are actually louvers, which are open always. With these screens in your window, the air flow will be less than if you did not have them in. I find them ideal for rainy days; I can have my window open for fresh air and rain doesn't come in.

The vents are open all the time. This is not a 'fancy' item but is practical in terms of allowing air in a room while keeping insects and rain out. (Happy with mine-)

The blue top you see on the tent is the "rain cover". It will not let rain in if you have all the windows closed during the rain. I have had this tent up in 2 rainstorms and have not had a leak!

Yes, but it won't keep out rain. I suppose it could be used for partial shade, though some of the sides are mesh.

It goes over your existing vent. It allows you to keep your vents open but doesn't allow the wind to rip them off while traveling or allow rain in while stationary. We highly recommend. Hope this helps.

Yes it does, however, it is not exact. There is about 1~2 mm of the plastic where it covers this first vents (nearest to the front) but I think it is good enough.

Yes close to ceiling as possible vented to outside make sure to remove damper on unit use a dampered vent cap

No it does not have a vent at the top. I returned mine and had to pay $100 to ship UPS. I went to Sam's Club and got a nicer one with sides and its heavy duty for $199. Do not get this item, especially not from this seller.

There is no mesh vent on the cover that I received. It is solid so that it protects from the rain, snow, etc.

As lkc said, there's a drawstring that can cinch it pretty close to the top. We bought two and used them on our market umbrellas that are on an elevated deck with no protection from the wind so we always close the umbrellas when we're not using them and it was never an issue.

I believe that's a vent. I haven't used mine in a few months, but whatever it is, it's covered and weather-proof. We love this tent!

It's used with the existing vent. The existing vent will actually open inside this vent cover. You can leave the vent covers open in the rain with these.
