What would you do? Repair, replace or upgrade?

Especially when it comes to your RV Awning, you have lots of choices.

The easiest and fastest thing to do is to replace your old damaged or worn out RV awning with a Complete new one. You can, of course, get exactly what you want by choosing either a powered, push-button awning like the Carefree Travel'r or Carefree Eclipse; or you could get the Carefree Standard Fiesta; or you could go 'springless' with the Carefree Pioneer manual, crank-out model. Just decide what color for your vinyl fabric, awning length, and hardware color. You'll quickly be upgraded to all the latest features. And, if you want a 10-year warranty on your awning fabric, you can choose the New Premium Vinyl option, too.

If your damage is not too great, you certainly can repair your awning. You could save a lot of money and get a nice update at the same time. For example, replacement vinyl fabric is available in current Carefree colors. With quick, free shipping from RvSupplyWarehouse.com, you'll be back up and RV'ing in style again soon.

Ways you can upgrade: 

Travel'r RV Patio Awning

1) From one awning type to another:

  • If you have a Fiesta awning with good fabric and roller tube, you could remove the springs and replace your old arm set with the Pioneer Arm Set/Upgrade Kit. Your upgraded awning would then be a manual/crank-out style. No more springs to deal with. Easy operation.
  • If you have a Fiesta awning with good fabric and roller tube and would like to have automatic/push-button awning, you could remove the springs and replace your old arm set with the Travel'r Arm Set/Upgrade Kit. Your upgraded awning would then extend and retract with push-button ease.
  • If you have a Travel'r awning with good fabric and roller tube, you could replace your old arm set with the Pioneer Arm Set/Upgrade Kit. Your upgraded awning would then be a manual/crank-out style. Easy and simple to operate with no springs and no power.
  • If you have a Pioneer awning with good fabric and roller tube, you could replace your old arm set with the Travel'r Arm Set/Upgrade Kit. Your upgraded awning would then extend and retract with push-button ease.
  • If you have a Fiesta, Pioneer, Eclipse, or Travel'r awning with good arms and roller tube, you can replace just the fabric/canopy only for a fresh new look in your choice of many vinyl colors or premium vinyl which features a 10-year warranty.

2) By replacing just one component:

  • Replacing just your awning canopy with a new color, design, or better quality will extend the life of your awning immensely and look great!
  • You can replace only an awning's Arm Set. This can be an excellent solution, especially if you have a bent arm, or sticking or missing parts.
  • To replace your Fabric Roller Tube Assembly (FRTA) you only need to know your RV awning's length and type. A Fiesta Vinyl FRTA will arrive with springs installed, while an Eclipse, Travel'r, or Pioneer awning will require a Springless FRTA.
