Measure your existing awning length and mounting points before ordering. The 848 designation indicates an 8'4\" awning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; padding-bottom: 20px; border-bottom: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; color: #333; margin: 0 0 8px;\"\u003eHow difficult is it to install this awning?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eInstallation requires two people and basic hand tools. You'll need to mount the awning rail to your RV sidewall, attach the support arms, and adjust the spring tension. Most experienced RV owners can complete installation in 2-3 hours. Professional installation is recommended if you're not comfortable working at height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; color: #333; margin: 0 0 8px;\"\u003eCan I leave this awning out in the rain?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eWhile the fabric is water-resistant, Dometic recommends retracting the awning during rain and wind. Water can pool on the fabric causing stress on the arms and roller tube. Always retract your awning when leaving your RV unattended or when weather conditions deteriorate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: linear-gradient(135deg, #dc2626 0%, #991b1b 100%); color: white; padding: 24px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 32px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 20px; font-weight: 700; margin: 0 0 12px; color: white;\"\u003eWhy Choose Elkhart RV Parts?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0 0 12px; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eWe specialize in hard-to-find Dometic RV parts that other suppliers don't stock.
