Frequently Asked Questions
Will this weathershield fit my A&E awning?
Yes, this weathershield is compatible with both Dometic and A&E brand 19-foot patio awnings. A&E was acquired by Dometic, and many parts are interchangeable. Verify your awning measures 19 feet when fully extended to ensure proper fit.
How do I know if I need to replace my weathershield?
Replace your weathershield if you notice cracking, tearing, significant fading, or if it no longer wraps securely around your rolled awning. A damaged weathershield can't protect your expensive awning fabric from UV rays and weather damage, leading to costly fabric replacement down the road.
Is this weathershield difficult to install?
Installation is straightforward for most RV owners. With your awning fully retracted, you wrap the weathershield around the rolled fabric and secure it using the integrated fastening system. The process typically takes 15-20 minutes and requires no special tools.
Can I leave the weathershield on while traveling?
Yes, the weathershield is designed to remain installed during travel. In fact, that's one of its primary purposes—protecting your awning fabric from road debris, bugs, and weather while you're on the move. Always ensure your awning is fully retracted and the weathershield is properly secured before driving.
