Also I'd be looking at the Dicor sealing on the roof. If they messed up the wiring, I can image what a poor job CW could achieve on the roof seals.

I found a fairly large crack in the Dicor on my bathroom vent when I was up there cleaning the roof. I was installing solar too, so I had a roll of Eternabond tape which I used to cover the cracked area. Plan is to install a remote controlled fan in place of the manual fan in the living area and move the original fan to the bathroom to replace the really, really cheap fan they used in there. I did a fan replacement on our old trailer and the hardest part of the job was peeling up the old Dicor. Replaced fans will get Eternabond.
I guess I misspoke...Our 29M came with a vent in the living room without a fan, which we thought was kinda weird in the first place but no biggie, problem solved!!
