Know before you buy
This replacement fabric is specifically designed for Carefree RV awnings with a 21-foot span. Because awning hardware varies by manufacturer and model, you should verify your existing roller tube has two polyrod slots before purchasing, as this fabric requires both to attach properly.
Weatherguard is a protective layer on the exterior of the fabric that shields it from UV rays, debris, and scrapes when the awning is fully retracted. It significantly extends the lifespan of your canopy by protecting the most exposed section of the vinyl.
This is a one-piece design, meaning the valance and the main canopy are integrated into a single unit. You do not need to purchase or attach a separate valance.
This is a heavy-duty, industry-standard vinyl designed to withstand constant exposure to the elements. It is significantly more tear-resistant and weather-hardy than standard lightweight fabrics, making it a reliable long-term replacement.
While it is possible to install this yourself, it is a two-person job that requires sliding the fabric into the roller tube slots and the RV rail simultaneously. We recommend having at least one assistant to help manage the weight and tension of the fabric during installation.
