Frequently Asked Questions
Is this awning compatible with my RV?
The Dometic 8500 series is designed to fit most RVs with standard awning rail mounting systems. Measure your existing awning or mounting rail to confirm the 18'8" length is appropriate for your RV. If you're replacing an existing Dometic awning, this is likely a direct replacement.
Does this awning come with all mounting hardware?
This complete awning assembly includes the fabric, roller tube, arms, and standard mounting brackets. Installation hardware for attaching to your RV may vary depending on your specific application. Review your existing setup or consult your RV's documentation for specific mounting requirements.
How do I operate a manual awning safely?
Manual awnings use a crank handle to extend and retract. Always ensure the awning is fully secured when extended, and retract it during high winds or when leaving your campsite. The 8500 series features tension adjustment to keep the fabric taut and prevent flapping.
Can I install this awning myself?
While experienced RV owners can install awnings, we recommend professional installation due to the size, weight, and precision required for proper mounting. Improper installation can lead to damage or safety issues. Many RV service centers are familiar with Dometic awning installations.
