ICONRV Skylight - SL1422W - White

RV ... a recreational vehicle is actually a vehicle that requires a constant state of maintenance. The skylight on our 2006 5th wheel was faded and opaque from years of Southern Oregon sun's UV. A recent hail storm had me worried it might break, usually at night in a storm miles from home the first night at a camp ground (that's when stuff breaks) so after reading tons of reviews, I chose ICON. They seem to be the "industry go to parts" with highest reviews.Arrived very fast, well packaged in a heavy duty box, but after removing the old OEM skylight I realized the ICON is way more heavy duty plastic than the OEM original. I also liked the ICON flange was slightly larger all the way around than the old one which covered all the old screw holes from the original. There was also more screw pre-drilled holes which is better spreading the clamping force.Obviously the screw holes wont line up but that's preferred since I would rather have fresh new screw holes with new ICON Butyl sealant to ensure a good solid seal. I absolutely hate RV leaks and I would assume the entire roof would come off way before this skylight leaked!The smoke color is perfect, filters just enough sun to make the bathroom shower bright enough yet filters the harsh summer heat. The clear see through to the sky - haven't see that for years with the crusty old one, this new one now we can see the stars at night even as its a smoke color.Have to replace our truck camper skylight, will definitely use ICON again. Since the install was so easy, about an hour, its not intimidating to me anymore. You have to use the ICON approved sealant - otherwise the chemicals in other brands may deteriorate, become brittle, and crack the plastic. Will buy again.

I was impressed with this skylight. We have an Lance 1685 that had a small crack in the skylight. This replacement appears to be more durable that the original. It rests completely flat on a surface and is easy to install . Used these#8 Stainless Steel EPDM Bonded Sealing Neoprene Rubber WashersSome #8 x 1 1/4 Inch 410 Stainless Steel Self Tapping Sheet Metal Screws-Modified Truss HeadICON 12062 Skylight Rubber Butyl Sealant ( per Lance website)Lots of videos , but I would follow Lance's advice and use the 12062 sealant for best results. All of these items can be had for less.... for lesser quality. Spend a few bucks to protect your camper for many years!

I looked at all the choices Amazon had to offer in RV skylights. These reviewed well. I was pleased in the speed of arrival, the packaging, and the quality.The screw holes don't match the original, but that's not an issue since you'll be caulking these under the flange as well as applying Dicor self-leveling caulking on top.

These are very sturdy but didn't fit our camper because they were not tall enough to clear the inside skylight.

This was the right replacement dome for my damaged OEM dome. The installation went ok after getting all of the old dome seal tape and dicor sealant off of the rubber roof. Getting all of that sealant stuff off took 1.5-2 hours. But I am very pleased with the quality of the product and the overall look of the new skylight. This product was much thicker than the OEM and should make it through the smaller hail stones.

This was a perfect fit for what we needed

The white skylight provides 80% to 90% of the light of a clear or crackled dome. It's like the difference between a frosted bulb and a clear bulb. It's perfect for the bathroom. The white dome also seems to keep the bathroom a little cooler since there are no direct rays. This replacement dome is much thicker than the original dome on our Nexus.

I highly recommend this over the factory install. Our skylight cracked on our first trip after getting it from the dealer. The company sent me a replacement but when I got it, it just seemed flimsy (see pictures of comparison). I ordered the icon thinking I might return it if it’s the same and it’s definitely not. Much thicker and seems much more robust. I drilled a few extra holes for screw points and put butyl tape under it. I like the tint shade and hope to never have to fix the skylight again!

The product fits 22" x 14" Skylight opening perfectly. There was no issue what so ever with the skylight, it looks great. The installation took about 4 hours, and most of that time is taken to remove the old skylight which was under a lot of sealant. I used a heat gun and some solvent to remove as much as possible. Once off, I followed the instructions on the Icon skylight website (see their install video; very useful); apply a streak of Icon sealant all along the spot for the skylight about where the screws (I had marked their spot with pen) will sit, then install the skylight, pushing on it a bit so that the sealant diffuse nicely. After I installed 1-inch screws with a drill but not tight to avoid cracking the skylight. I tighten all the screws by hand. After, you apply sealant along the edge of the skylight, then around and on the screws. I used about 60% of an Icon sealant tube for the install. The next day I added a second coat all around to make sure that it was well sealed. Also, FYI, the sealant and Skylight are made in North America , even better :) Et voila., now let’s go camping.

Este es the alta qualida por RV y tamajo es perfecto.

Exactly as expected. It was a replacement of existing skylight as the original had cracked & was about to disintegrate due to the UV from the sun.

Fit perfectly

Yet to use on my Travel Trailer.
