They are a great addition, gives lots of extra space and once you’ve put it up a couple of times you do get used to it. Enjoy 😀 don’t forget to buy a decent hammer and strong ground pegs for sites with gravel parking!

A tip…….we always leave the carpet/groundsheet down…..last item to pack.This helps stop any potential punctures on gravel or stony surfaces.

Youll be fine. First time always seems daunting but it gets easier i promise. 🤞🏻

You need to put those first pegs at tge back more under the van. Then upright poles into a little pocket & tuck that padding between the poles & van. Secure with ties. Dont gorgeous to turn your valves inside the awning. This stops all of the air going if you get a puncture. Get some hard ground pegs or rock pegs. Also get some pegs with a drill attachment. You can buy a cheap pie drill from Aldi/Lidl and then drill the pegs in. Much easier! Good luck.

Thank you. We have now bought some telescopic poles and limpets for the padded areas. We also have a variety of pegs for the varied ground conditions (invariably stones 😂) but a drill sounds like a great tip 👍🏻

Very informative video thank you, we've ordered the club air (same principle) I love these awnings so much more space, I'll be able to do my exercise in private too, thanks again both ps love your motor home x

Thank you. The awning has been a great addition especially with a dog underfoot. It takes some effort the first time (hopefully your instructions will be better than ours) but with practice gets quicker each time. Enjoy.

Well done, good explanation, thx for uploading 😊

Youll probably be better off with a drive away version as this one would collapse onto the ground and potentially get damaged. The dometic brand is very good quality though so worrh searching out their drive away version.

You really need to measure your own as they do differ but ours is about 2800 I think! It does also depend on the levelling too. The awning however does have adjustable sides with a zip to allow for unlevel ground. Thanks for watching

@@Bass1469 wow that is high! Ive never heard of an Awning in Europe that tall. Maybe they make specific ones for the american RV market as they have lots of tall vehicles there. Of course there are manufacturers like Concorde in europe who make tall motorhomes maybe they could advise you on the best place to find one? Might be worth dropping them an email.

Great video, I’ve just purchased the AirPro 330s and still to try it out, quick Q though! Can you fold it back up with the panels on it? TIA X 🥂

@BellasBigAdventures

Жыл бұрын

The honest answer is i dont know for sure! We dont because it comes with a separate bag for the doors and windows. ive heard mixed opinions about wether you should or not. My hubby thinks it might not roll up small enough if left attached. Another comment I’ve heard is that the ‘glass’ might get damaged if folded differently 🤷‍♀️ first attempt is always the hardest but it does get easier. The hardest part is often getting it in the runner….. lots of cursing involved 😂 We revisted it in this video….
