Awning adjustment
I have a new to me 2018 Rockwood 5th wheel. It has two Dometic 9100 power awnings on it and to me they both look out of adjustment. If it were to rain, the water would pool up on top or even run back ...

People who leave awnings out in the rain regardless of pitch, eventually BUY new awnings when they collapse.
In practice I found that both my manual Dometic 8500 and power Dometic 9100 awnings, when set for the greatest pitch, would easily allow even heavy rainwater to pour off the awning and not bother it in any way. The only problem I had with rain was with the awful Carefree of Colorado power awning that came standard on our KZ Spree and which had zero pitch but I solved that problem by having the dealer replace it with the Dometic 8500. Wind OTOH would destroy either so we'd always retract the awning at night or whenever we'd be away from the campsite for the day.
People that think like you make me and our dealership money:B Doug
