Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this awning fit my RV?
A: The RF 8500 14-foot awning is designed to fit most travel trailers and motorhomes with standard awning mounting systems. Verify your RV's awning length and mounting style before ordering. If you're unsure, contact our expert support team with your RV model and year.
Q: What should I do if the motor doesn't work?
A: First, check that power is reaching the awning switch and that the manual override isn't engaged. Ensure the wind sensor isn't triggered. If issues persist, the motor may need service or replacement—our team can help diagnose the problem.
Q: How do I maintain the fabric to keep it looking new?
A: Rinse the fabric regularly with fresh water and mild soap to remove dirt and debris. Retract the awning during storms and high winds. Avoid harsh chemicals or pressure washers, which can damage the acrylic coating and reduce UV protection.
