RV skylights take a beating from UV exposure, hail, and temperature swings, and a cracked or yellowed dome is one of the more common maintenance items on older rigs. The good news is that replacement is usually a straightforward DIY job, and in most cases you only need to swap the outer dome rather than the entire assembly.

Most skylights consist of two parts: an outer dome that mounts on the roof and an inner dome that fits inside the ceiling opening. Both are sold separately or as complete kits. The selection here from Specialty Recreation and Icon covers square, rectangular, and neo-angle shapes in a wide range of sizes, and in white, clear, smoke, bronze, and ice finishes to match your interior.

How do I measure for an RV skylight replacement?

Measure the rough opening cut in your roof, not the outer flange or the dome of the old skylight. Remove the interior trim ring, then measure the opening length and width from inside the RV. Opening sizes vary by RV manufacturer, so confirm both dimensions before ordering. Also measure the flange width on your current skylight. The new flange needs enough flat roof surface around it to seat on butyl tape.

Can I replace only the outer RV skylight cover?

Yes. If the outer dome is cracked or yellowed but the frame and roof opening are sound, an outer cover replacement is the usual fix. To install it:ul>li>Remove the old screws and sealant./li>li>Clean the roof surface around the opening./li>li>Lay new butyl tape under the flange and fasten the new cover./li>li>Finish with self-leveling lap sealant over the flange edge and screw heads./li>/ul>Confirm the lap sealant is rated for your roof material (EPDM, TPO, or fiberglass). While you are on the roof, check the sealant on other roof penetrations, such as RV cable hatches. Inner trim rings are sold separately from outer covers.

What do I need to know before ordering an RV shower skylight replacement?

Match the roof opening dimensions, not the size of the visible dome. Shower skylights are often taller than standard skylights to add headroom over the tub or stall. Note the height of your existing dome if you want the same clearance inside. If you can't find a model number on the frame, text or call 817-984-1852 with your opening dimensions and a photo of the existing skylight. We will help you confirm the correct fit.

Should I choose a polycarbonate or acrylic RV skylight?

Choose polycarbonate if impact is the concern. It is more resistant to hail and branch strikes than acrylic. Acrylic costs less, but it is more prone to cracking as it ages under UV exposure. If your current skylight failed from an impact, polycarbonate is the more durable replacement. Check each product listing for the dome material before ordering.

Do RV skylights fit manufactured homes?

Sometimes, but check before you order. The skylights in this collection are designed for RV and camper roofs. Manufactured home roofs are often thicker and may use curb-mounted skylights instead of flange-mounted units. Measure the roof opening and the roof thickness at the opening, then compare both against the product specifications. For a fitment check, text or call 817-984-1852 with your measurements.
