Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the 8500 and other Dometic awning models?
The Dometic 8500 is a manual patio awning that uses a hand crank for operation, making it simpler and more reliable than motorized models. It's ideal for RV owners who prefer mechanical simplicity without electrical components that can fail. The 8500 series is known for its durability and ease of maintenance.
Does this awning come with mounting hardware?
The Dometic 8500 awning typically includes the main awning assembly with roller tube, fabric, arms, and mounting brackets. However, specific mounting hardware may vary. We recommend checking your existing awning's mounting configuration before installation or contacting our parts specialists for guidance on your specific RV model.
Can I install this awning myself or do I need professional help?
While experienced RV owners with proper tools can install the Dometic 8500 awning, it's a two-person job due to the size and weight. The awning must be properly aligned and tensioned for safe operation. If you're not comfortable working at height or don't have awning installation experience, we recommend professional installation to ensure proper function and warranty coverage.
How do I measure to confirm this is the right size for my RV?
Measure the length of your existing awning's roller tube or the distance between the mounting brackets on your RV. The 15-foot measurement refers to the fabric width when fully extended. Make sure you have adequate clearance on both sides of your RV door or window for the awning arms to operate properly.
