Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need to replace my awning weathershield?
Replace your weathershield if you notice cracked or brittle slats, missing sections, water pooling on the retracted awning, or if the shield no longer seals tightly against the fabric roll. Damaged weathershields allow moisture to penetrate, leading to fabric mold, mildew, and premature wear.
Will this weathershield fit my 14-foot Dometic awning?
This weathershield is designed specifically for 14-foot Dometic patio awnings. Measure your awning fabric length (not the RV length) to confirm you have a 14' model. The weathershield must match your awning length exactly for proper installation and protection.
Can I install this weathershield myself?
Yes, most RV owners can replace the weathershield with basic tools. The shield typically slides into channels on the awning roller tube. You may need to remove the awning arms or end caps depending on your specific model. Consult your Dometic awning manual for detailed installation instructions for your particular awning configuration.
Does the weathershield come in other colors?
This model is available in black, which is the most common color for Dometic weathershields. Black provides excellent UV resistance and matches most RV awning hardware. Always verify your current weathershield color before ordering to ensure a matching appearance.
