Awning Repairs & Replacements

Restore Your RV’s Outdoor Living Space

An awning transforms your RV’s exterior into a cozy living space, offering shade and shelter for outdoor fun. But what happens when it tears, sags, or just doesn’t work anymore? Awning repairs and replacements are common issues, especially for well-loved RVs.

Common Awning Problems

  • Loss of power on the wiring harness

  • Awning wont extend or retract

  • Tears and holes from wind or debris

  • Motor failures common with all electric operated awnings

  • Sagging, improper retraction or misalignment

  • Moss growth (for our pacific northwest customers)

Repair or Replace? Small issues like tears can often be patched up, while significant damage or aging mechanisms might call for a full replacement. New awnings come with warranties and may be worth purchasing. It is also possible to get a custom awning fabric made at a boat cover shop, if your original equipment is still in good shape.

Stay Warm Outside with the Solera RV Awning Heater.

For those of you who enjoy camping in the Pacific Northwest, chilly evenings can sometimes be a reason to head inside the camper too soon. That’s why I wanted to share Lippert’s latest product release with you – the Solera RV Awning Heater. It’s designed to give you a cozy spot outside, even when the temperatures start to drop.

Made for Outdoor Comfort

The Solera Awning Heater is a great option for places where burn bans are in effect. Since it’s an electric heater, it provides that much-needed warmth without the need for an open flame, so you can stay cozy even when fires aren’t allowed. Mounting directly to your RV’s awning arm, it raises the temperature in the area by about 10 degrees, covering up to a 10-foot span – just enough to make those chilly evenings more comfortable. If you’re someone who likes a relaxing evening outdoors after a long day, this heater could be a nice addition to your setup.

Easy to Use

Lippert kept things simple with this one. The mounting brackets come included, along with a built-in level to keep it all secure, and there’s a thumb screw for adjustments. When it’s time to head out, the heater detaches easily so you’re not wrestling with it during setup or takedown.

One helpful feature is the battery-operated remote that lets you set the heater to run for one to nine hours. So if you’re reading, cooking, or just relaxing outside, you don’t have to worry about turning it on and off all night.

Built for Pacific Northwest Conditions

Lippert’s built the Solera Awning Heater to handle the elements, which makes it a good fit for those of you roughing it in the fall/winter pacific northwest weather. It’s made from black, powder-coated steel with an IP35 rating, so it’s durable for outdoor use. Rain, mist, or even just the damp coastal air won’t be a problem.

Interested in Adding One?

If a little extra warmth under your awning sounds like something you’d enjoy, I’d be happy to install it for you. Click here to book an appointment and we’ll make sure your RV is set up for a longer camping season.
