attached screen room

I'm with most of the others. We got one for our 35 footer and used it once. After taking it down, we stored it in the basement, and bought a free-standing one instead. Used that one for years, the attached one is still in the basement. Don't waste your money.

I had one with my TT and am looking to get one for the fiver, only used in places where the bugs were to much a neusance, it served to reduce the bugs in the trailer by about 90%, previous to it I would have to spend about half an hour killing flying insects before bed, now just kill a couple at most.

the one from our TT is wayyyyy to short to fit the fifth wheel,,, won't even touch the ground.

set up time??? was a "patti-o-room" and could have it up and together in about 20 minutes, but like I said only used it where the bugs were bad, and just as much to keep them out of the main part of the trailer that for just somewhere to sit with reduced bugs

My grandparents always had a screenroom that attached to their awning however only used it when once a year. We debated getting one when we bought our TT and have decided to wait. We already have a 10x10 quick shade c100 found a screen enclosure for it for 49.00 on amazon. Its nice to be able to use it for other things when we don't have the TT with us. It is very easy to get down if there is a storm and if it gets torn up the 199.00 canopy and 49.00 screen is a lot less to replace then a 400.00 screen plus a new awning. We also have a small bug zapper that we found at Kmart .

We had a couple of Glendale Titanium 5th wheels with the "Bug Room" option and liked it a lot. Simple to set up, just slide the "floor" out from under the trailer and set the screwdown jacks, unhook and raise the rear cap cover (that becomes the room's roof). Then zip in the screeen. A 10 minute or less process. Too bad Glendale went out of business and the rear cap was a poor construction flaw. Made a replacement out of aluminum on our last one and was a lot better.

When the kids were young we had a Colorado Awning Room which attached to the awning of the Class C. It was easy to install: Slide the top of the wall into the awning track. Zipper up the two sides, attaching them to the RV side with snaps (That had to be riveted into the side of the RV). A couple of side support extension bars, and we had a fully enclosed room. The kids loved it. I don't know if they still make a canvas room, I have seen Colorado Screen Rooms at RV shows. Fun memories from times gone by.
Happy Trails.

I have a Carefree with an Add-a-Room for winter camping. The trailer came from the mfg with the awning and I had the dealer "install" the add-a-room. It uses twist fittings (turn buttons?) which are mounted to the side of the trailer. I have metal siding and the dealer added most of the twist fittings where there was no existing wall framing under them. They could have added the fittings a few inches over to the side of where they installed them and adjusted the canopy material to suit, but never asked me. It would have been okay to have just done it since the panel would then only taper in at the top a little. As it was they also stripped half the screw holes in the sheet metal since apparently no one knew what a clutch was for on a drill driver so all the turn buttons wiggle since the screws are loose. They also tore off pieces of 1 inch putty tape and smeared a dab under each one and didn't even scrape away the excess blobs sticking out. If I had it to do all over again I would have also purchased the optional Snapless Side Upgrade Kit which does not even use the turn buttons and help the panels fit against the trailer wall better. It also looked like they used a machete to cut the piece that fits along the bottom of the trailer wall where it is supposed to fit around the steps. I like the Add-a-Room, but wish they knew how to install one properly. When I raised #@%$ about the job they did, all they did was refund me the installation fee.
