New awning fabric for our coach...
As its 11th birthday approaches our 2012 Nexus 24' Class C needed a replacement fabric for the electric awning. There were number of holes developing along the inside edge where it attaches to the coach and it was looking a little long in the tooth. We have been getting 5.5 years out of them and for a C that is used a lot in the Arizona sun that isn't too bad.
I called Shade Pro as they had done a nice job on the last one. They are a little short staffed since the guy who handled the installs for central Arizona recently retired and there was one month backlog. The last time they came to our home in Tucson but this time I met their installer at the Walmart parking lot on the west side of Prescott. It was a 2 hour {very scenic } drive from Payson that added $75 in fuel for the round trip to the cost of the replacement.
It took about 45 minutes and I watched as my bride shopped. The 16' replacement awning looks and operates great and we should be good to go for another 5+ years. The cost was $420 {OTD}. the installer recommended using 303 on a regular basis to extend the life of this one... and I will.
