My TrailManor model 2922KB is covered with this cover, and the short answer is yes, it works. Although, at one point, the bedroom window debris shield does come into contact with the propane cover when collapsing the camper for towing, the cover is soft and flexible, so the debris shield slides over it and does not cause any
Getting a tank cover is not a good idea. In the long run, there is a chance it will fall off on the highway if wind gets under it or if it takes out an When it gets cold, the cloth ones tend to freeze to the sides. It is a good idea to paint the rusted areas if you do not like the look.
To fill up your tanks, you have to remove the cover
think the larger ones will work well, I believe the smaller ones will work as well, but you will have to do some rigging to get the cover to stay on, but it should be a simple task.

All I have to suggest is that you throw out the junk zinc-coated steel hardware and replace it with stainless steel. During the one month that I had it installed, it did not work. The results of the experiment have been shown in the attached pictures. You will achieve that rustic "rust streaked" look in just a few months if you love it! It is recommended that you use 12 pcs of either 10- or 25-" monitors You can choose between 10 or 24 Phillips pan head screws, accompanied by stainless steel nylock nuts. I also added #10 stainless steel flat washers (24 in. Total of six feet) under both contact surfaces to the plastic to distribute the increased force applied by the tightened hardware. It is my sincere hope that.
He also adds a couple more tips that weren't previously mentioned. You will need to install the bottom screw of the tank access lid as shown (it is asymmetrical) so that it can rock back and forth to open &aposn close on its own I am closing. As a whole, this is a good value. It costs the same as a softside one I bought years ago from an RV dealer that did not last. While I used the original hardware, I had to gob a bit of 3-up to it The screws/nuts will be oiled to prevent rust, but if I need to change them out to stainless, I may use longer screws and enough washers on the nut end so that I can use wingnuts to remove it See the added plastic cable ties attached to one side. A couple holes need to be drilled across from the slots to install the cable ties.
The cover has come off Finished assembling. I like the product, it looks good and its worth the money! Unfortunately, there are a couple of problems There is a very small print saying that it comes unassembled that has been omitted. ordinarily would not be a big deal, however, due to the 12 small screws and the fact that the two halves do not line up perfectly until the assembly is completed, it takes about 30 minutes to assemble It should take between 20 and If you had done one before, you might use power tools, and you would have done it a lot faster, probably in I wouldn't consider it life or death, but in the huge box it came in, I could have easily assembled it. There is an installation manual provided as an 'additional instruction' by the seller. It is not necessary to install anything on the cover of a propane tank - One hand is placed on top of the tanks and one hand is popped over. Two and a half seconds at most. There is a difference between 'installation manual' and 'assembly manual', so the dealers have been coy here (you have to open the PDF file to see the installation manual they list), in attempting to conceal that the item ships The second paragraph. It is a bad idea to have a flat raised part on the upper front. Due to the fact that your power jack motor plugs into that area and there are only about three eighths of an inch between the upright Jack tube and the It is a common phenomenon for trailers to have such This is a very common occurrence. A power jack will rub hard on this area, so pretty much anything will rub hard. A lot of Jacks with a bigger cover on the motor will not fit it all or will be a bad fit (see photo number 3).
I agree with others who have also stated that if exposed to moisture (like rain), the hardware included with this cover will rust very quickly. As part of the repairs I replaced all the hardware between the two halves with stainless steel hardware, including screws, washers, and nylock nuts. There is only about $10 of hardware involved, but it is more than In addition, the lid of my cover also had a line of hot glue on it, which has proven difficult to remove and, as of now, just leaves a brown blotch on what would otherwise be a nice There is some peeling going on, I may need to try an eraser or something similar to see if it helps. In addition to using a couple zip ties to secure the hinge side of the lid, I would also advise you to take the advice others have provided, since the "hinge" likes to pop out when the lid is closed. As a result, I gave it three stars, because it looks better than without a cover.
This one is nice, but the Polar White is really, really white. I bought the Polar White instead of the Beige because my camper is white and this is so white that it gives the appearance of beige. I will keep it and give it The product is what it says on the box, and assembly was fairly easy. This is the 20 pound model, so any 30 or 40 pound tanks will not fit. There are many campers who use only 20 lb tanks, but some prefer 30 lb tanks. It becomes increasingly difficult to lift weights after the age of 40. In addition to 20-inch covers, Campco makes a 4-inch cover One camper has a shorter version, with tanks that weigh 20 pounds under it, and the other has a taller version. If your tanks need to be upgraded later, you can buy the bigger cover. There will only be 20s covers for this cover. The following is my recommendation.
It is of excellent quality, perfectly tailored, and will take it all. We improved the look of our RV and added additional protection to the tanks with these propane covers. After assembling and installing it was a breeze, I only had to make one small adjustment in order to get it to stay attached to the tank holder due to the placement, I couldn't use nails or bolts to secure it to This is a very durable material. This jacket has already endured several weeks of moderate to severe rainfall, as well as two hail storms and a few days of cold weather and endless.
The propane cover that I just bought is so much better than the one I had previously purchased. I did not secure the cover to the tank platform because there was no way to do so. Sometimes, the cover bumps back and forth in the wind and wakes me up. There is not enough movement in it to fly off the tanks, however there is sufficient movement to make some noise, which can be disturbing while you sleep. There is only one negative with regards to this product it's hard to switch tanks or switch the supply. It certainly protects the hoses The product would be five stars if it came with a strap to hold it in place while you use it.
