Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this awning come with the mounting hardware?
A: Yes, the Dometic 8500 awning includes all necessary mounting brackets, hardware, arms, and the manual crank handle for complete installation. You'll have everything needed to replace your existing awning.
Q: Can I install this awning myself or do I need professional help?
A: While DIY installation is possible for those with mechanical aptitude, we recommend having at least two people for installation due to the size and weight. Professional installation ensures proper mounting and alignment for optimal performance and safety.
Q: How do I know if this 11-foot awning will fit my RV?
A: Measure your existing awning from end to end of the roller tube, or measure the available mounting space on your RV sidewall. The 11-foot measurement refers to the fabric width. Ensure your RV has adequate clearance and proper mounting surface for the brackets.
Q: What's the difference between the 8500 manual and motorized awning models?
A: The 8500 manual awning uses a hand-crank mechanism for operation, making it more affordable and eliminating electrical components that can fail. It's ideal for RVers who prefer simplicity and don't mind the manual operation for reliable, maintenance-free performance.
