# Van roof fan and A/C installs for Surrey ProVanWorks installs roof vent fans, rooftop A/C and battery-powered A/C in vans from Surrey and White Rock at our shop in Langley, just over the city line from Cloverdale. We fit them to camper vans, trades vans and grooming vans from any builder, and most vans are at the shop for 1 to 2 days. ## How far is the ProVanWorks shop from Surrey? Not far. Langley and Surrey share a border, so the shop is a short drive along Highway 10, Fraser Highway or Highway 1 from Cloverdale and Fleetwood, and only a little longer from Newton, Guildford or South Surrey. Most Surrey customers drop the van off and pick it up once the install is finished. ## Why do Surrey vans need a roof fan or A/C? Surrey summers are warmer inland than at the water. A van parked on a job site in Cloverdale, Newton or Campbell Heights sits in full sun all afternoon, while White Rock gets a breeze off Boundary Bay. The metal roof soaks up that heat, and the cargo area of a closed van gets much hotter than the air outside. Different Surrey vans need different things. A trades van left on a site all day needs a roof fan to vent the heat so tools and materials are not baking. A camper heading out Highway 99 or Highway 1 for the weekend may want a rooftop unit for campsites with hookups. A mobile groomer running a dryer between townhouse visits in Newton or Fleetwood needs A/C that runs from the batteries with the engine off.

Yes. Surrey winters are wet, and a van full of people, wet gear or wet dogs fills with moist air that condenses on the cold metal roof and windows. Over a few months, that damp gets into insulation and behind panels. A roof vent fan pushes the moist air out, which keeps the inside of the van drier through the rainy season. ## How much does a fan or A/C install cost for a Surrey van? ProVanWorks quotes each install by email, because the price depends on the unit, the roof and the wiring the van needs. Email info@provanworks.com with the year, make and model, the roof height, photos of the roof and ceiling, what you want installed and what batteries the van has. ## Frequently asked questions ### Can you install A/C in a grooming van from another builder?
