Frequently Asked Questions
What is the actual fabric width of this 11'6" awning?
The 11'6" measurement refers to the projection (how far the awning extends from your RV). The fabric width will depend on your RV's mounting configuration. Dometic 8500 awnings are available in various widths to fit different RV lengths. Measure your existing awning or mounting rail before ordering to ensure proper fit.
Can I replace just the fabric on my existing 8500 awning?
Yes, Dometic offers replacement fabric for the 8500 series. However, this part number (9108886419) is for the complete awning assembly. If you only need fabric replacement, contact our parts specialists to identify the correct fabric-only part number for your specific awning width.
Is this awning compatible with electric conversion kits?
The Dometic 8500 manual awning can potentially be converted to electric operation using Dometic's motor conversion kits, though this requires additional parts and installation expertise. The manual version offers simplicity and reliability without electrical components, making it ideal for boondocking and off-grid camping.
What maintenance does the 8500 manual awning require?
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the fabric with mild soap and water, lubricating the crank mechanism annually, checking arm tension, and always retracting the awning in high winds or when leaving your RV unattended. Proper care will extend the life of your awning significantly.
