Frequently Asked Questions
Will this awning fit my RV?
The Dometic 8500 Series uses the industry-standard awning rail mounting system found on most RVs manufactured in the last 30 years. Measure your existing awning rail opening - this 19-foot awning requires approximately 19 feet of continuous rail space. If you're replacing an existing Dometic, Carefree, or A&E awning of similar length, this will typically fit without modification.
Can I install this awning myself?
Installation is possible for experienced DIYers with proper tools and at least one helper. The awning assembly is heavy and requires careful handling during mounting. You'll need a drill, appropriate fasteners for your RV sidewall type, a ladder, and someone to help support the awning during installation. Many RV owners prefer professional installation to ensure proper tension adjustment and secure mounting. Installation typically takes 2-4 hours.
How do I maintain my manual awning?
Clean the fabric regularly with mild soap and water to prevent mildew and extend fabric life. Always retract the awning in high winds or when leaving your campsite. Lubricate the roller tube and arm pivot points annually with silicone spray. Inspect the fabric for tears or wear at the beginning of each season. Never leave the awning extended unattended, and always retract it completely before traveling.
What's the difference between the 8500 manual and 9100 power awning?
The 8500 Series uses a manual crank handle for deployment and retraction, while the 9100 Series features electric motor operation. Manual awnings are more reliable in remote locations since they don't depend on electrical power, have fewer components that can fail, and are generally less expensive. Power awnings offer convenience with push-button operation but require a 12V power source and occasional motor maintenance.
