Frequently Asked Questions
Which MPK rooflight sizes are available and what apertures do they fit?MPK manufactures three main rooflight sizes: 280x280mm (Model 29 - the smallest), 320x360mm (Model 32), and 400x400mm (Model 42 and VisionStar ranges). The measurements refer to the cut-out aperture in your roof. Most caravan bathrooms use the 280x280mm size, while living areas typically use 400x400mm rooflights. The 320x360mm size is less common but still found on some older caravans.Are MPK rooflights interchangeable with other brands?MPK rooflights are generally interchangeable with other brands using the same aperture sizes, but you need to check roof thickness compatibility. Most UK caravan manufacturers standardised on the 280x280mm and 400x400mm apertures, so an MPK rooflight will usually fit where a Dometic, Remis, or other brand rooflight was previously installed. However, always measure your existing aperture and roof thickness before ordering.What's MPK's modular system and how does it work?MPK's modular system allows you to mix and match components within the same size category. For 400x400mm and 280x280mm rooflights, you can retrofit different interior frames (with pleated blinds, roller blinds, or flynets) to existing outer frames, or replace just the dome while keeping your current frame. This means you can upgrade your rooflight features without replacing the entire unit.How long do MPK rooflights typically last?MPK rooflights typically last 15-20 years with proper maintenance. The polycarbonate domes are UV-resistant and impact-resistant, while the polypropylene frames resist weathering. Common wear items include rubber seals (every 5-10 years), locking catches (which can be replaced individually), and blinds. Many owners report MPK rooflights from the 1990s still functioning well, though cosmetic updates might be desired.What's the difference between MPK's traditional models and the VisionStar range?Traditional MPK models (29, 32, 42) feature opaque milk glass domes that open on four sides using pantograph mechanisms, while VisionStar models have clear smoked polycarbonate domes that open to one side with a single lever. VisionStar rooflights are flatter (80mm vs 105mm), offer better UV protection, and can achieve higher driving speeds (160km/h vs 130km/h). Traditional models cost less but VisionStar provides superior aesthetics and functionality.Can I retrofit an MPK rooflight to a caravan from the 1980s or 1990s?Yes, MPK rooflights are designed to fit both old and new caravans. Since MPK has been manufacturing rooflights since 1975, they maintain compatibility with older aperture sizes. However, older caravans might have thinner roofs (under 24mm) which could require adapter plates or specialist fitting. The standard MPK range fits roof thicknesses from 24-56mm, so measure your roof thickness first.Why don't MPK rooflights come with fixings included?MPK doesn't include screws and sealant because installations vary dramatically depending on roof construction, thickness, and material. A 25mm GRP roof needs different fixings than a 50mm aluminium sandwich panel roof. MPK provides detailed specifications in their installation instructions: typically 8x self-tapping screws (3.5mm diameter) with length matching your roof thickness, plus elastic sealant adhesive.What permanent ventilation options does MPK offer and are they required?Most MPK models provide permanent ventilation that operates even when the rooflight is closed, helping prevent dangerous CO2 buildup. Only the VisionStar range offers both vented and non-vented options. MPK strongly advises against sealing permanent ventilation systems as minimum airflow is essential for safety. If you're replacing a vented rooflight, you should maintain ventilation unless your vehicle manufacturer specifically approves closing it.How do I identify which MPK rooflight model I currently have?Remove the interior frame by unscrewing it to reveal the timber aperture - measure this hole to determine size (280x280mm, 320x360mm, or 400x400mm). Check the exterior dome for model numbers or the E13*43R* approval stamp. Older models have opaque white domes with handles that push up on four sides, while VisionStar models have clear tinted domes with single-lever operation. Frame colours were traditionally cream/beige, with signal white introduced more recently.
