awning should also be water repellent so that you and your pets don't get wet while it is raining. Breathability is another important factor in rv awning fabric. This allows hot air to pass through the acrylic fabric which gives you a cooler environment. Some fabrics trap in hot air which in turn can make you feel like you're sitting under a heat lamp. |
When purchasing your rv awning fabric the sewing of the material is very important. Ultimately you want seamless edges that are bonded together with no sagging. This will keep your awnings looking good for years. Cheap conventionally sewn fabrics are susceptible to puckering edges as well as stretching and over time with heat, cold, wind and rain your fabric will fade, tear, a become thread bare. If you are purchasing an awning to add on to your new or used RV then the better quality fabrics will give you more life from your rv awning. Awnings are the most utilized rv accessory you will purchase. Awnings reduce the sun’s heat from entering through walls and windows.
Vinyl awnings mildew especially if you are in a wet and humid climate. Never wrap and store your rv awning fabric when it is wet. It has to completely dry on both sides before storing. Some awning hardware have a weather guard protecting the fabric. Each time you open your awning you should inspect it for stains and mildew. Wash and rinse thoroughly any stains with a mild soap and a soft brush. When the awning is completely opened check the awning brackets as well for any loose lag screws as well as the arm pivot holes for any enlarged holes or broken rivets in the handles.

With more than 10 years of rving experience our rv awning has been our finest accessory. We have traveled over 33,000 miles and camped more than 1,912 days and the first thing we do when we park is open the awning. With the lounge chairs set out under the awning the kids can stay outside all day without fear of getting cabin fever or sunburnt. RV awnings are well worth the time and money. High quality awning fabrics will last between 10 to 14 years in the weather with very little care. The weather is the single biggest enemy of vacationing and camping. Enjoy your rv by purchasing an awning with good quality rv awning fabric.
