Awning Care & Cleaning
On a monthly basis, loosen hardened dirt and remove dust from the awning with a dry, medium bristle brush.
Thoroughly rinse both the top and bottom with a garden hose.
A high-quality acrylic fabric cleaner may be used to help maintain appearance. Carefully follow the
instructions on any cleaning product used. Metal surfaces should be cleaned with soapy water and thoroughly
rinsed. Allow the awning to thoroughly air dry while extended. Awning maintenance products can be found at RV
supply stores.
Acrylic Awnings:
Wash both sides of the awning with a mild soap (i.e., dish soap) and lukewarm water.
DO NOT
use
detergents. If necessary, reapply the solution to keep fabric saturated. Rinse the awning thoroughly. Repeat, if
necessary, until most of the stains disappear. Contact
Carefree of Colorado
for removal of stubborn stains.
Vinyl Awnings:
Mildew will not form on the awning material itself, but it may form on the dust accumulated on the canopy. A
quality vinyl cleaner, such as
Carefree Awning Magic
, will help keep the awning looking new. Be sure to follow
the instructions on the container.
Leaks:
It is normal for slight leakage to occur through the fabric where water is allowed to accumulate. If water
drips through the needle holes in the stitching use a commercial seam sealer that is available in canvas and trailer
supply stores. Paraffi n wax may also be applied to the top of the seams. As the awning “weathers” these holes will
normally seal themselves.
Soap or chemical residue can “wet” the fabric so that it appears unable to repel water. Rinse the fabric
thoroughly and test to see if it is water repellent after it dries. If leakage continues after washing and thoroughly
rinsing, please contact
Carefree of Colorado
.
Storm Precautions
The warranty does not cover damage caused by acts of nature; therefore, steps should be taken to prevent
damage from occurring due to wind, rain or storms. Retract the awning in inclement weather conditions or when
leaving the motorhome unattended. Should the awning need to be retracted while the fabric is wet, extended it as
soon as possible to allow it to completely dry.
