Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need to replace my awning weathershield?

Replace your weathershield if you notice cracking, tearing, excessive fading, or if it no longer wraps securely around the roller tube. A damaged weathershield allows moisture and UV rays to reach your awning fabric, leading to mildew, fading, and premature fabric failure.

Can I install this weathershield myself?

Yes, most RV owners can replace the weathershield with basic tools. The process typically involves removing the end caps, sliding off the old weathershield, positioning the new one around the roller tube, and securing it with the existing attachment hardware. Consult your awning's installation manual for specific instructions.

Will this fit my 14-foot awning?

No, this weathershield is specifically sized for 13'6" awnings. Using an incorrectly sized weathershield will result in gaps or excess material that won't provide proper protection. Measure your awning length carefully and order the weathershield that matches your exact awning size.

Does this weathershield come with mounting hardware?

This weathershield is designed to use your existing mounting hardware and attachment points. If your original hardware is damaged or missing, you may need to order those components separately.
