Hi Folks,

We've just bought a new elddis majestic motorhome.  In the middle at the kitchen area, there is a small rooflight which seems to have vents built into it in a circle all around it.  There is no way of closing these vents and I presume they are there for ventilation etc.  However, when we are travelling, there is one hell of a draught blows through them and the motorhome is freezing, especially around the back travelling seats and the drivers left side.   If I shut over the flyscreen or paper blind, they start to blow downwards in the middle with the draught and would eventually tear.  Does anyone have a solution for this freezing cold problem?  Any help or suggestions would be appreciated and would save us all travelling with blankets on our knees!

Can you reach inside the covers to place a wad of insulation such as a small cushion pad up there? would it be possible to block the space using some sheet foam rubber, prefareably the sealed cell type you find roll mats made from?

I would not advise sleeping with the vent blocked because of the oxygen levels and condensation whilst fully occupied, but you should be ok just for short periods of time travelling.

Thanks Julia
