Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this awning fit my RV?
A: This 13 feet 6 inches awning is designed for RVs with that mounting width. Verify your RV's awning mounting dimensions and compare to this product's specifications before ordering.
Q: What is Siltex fabric and why does it matter?
A: Siltex is a premium acrylic fabric treated to resist UV fading, mildew, and mold growth. It maintains its color and structural integrity longer than standard awning fabrics, especially in harsh climates.
Q: Can I replace just the fabric, or do I need the entire awning?
A: This is a complete awning assembly. If only your fabric is damaged, Dometic offers fabric-only replacement kits for some models. Contact our expert support team to explore your options.
