Window Awnings

Anyone know of a place in the Elkhart, IN area that sells and installs exterior roll up window awnings for Motorhome's similar to the attached image?



After 4+ years I've convinced myself that they would be a good upgrade and allow windows to be left open on the cool rainy days and to help with cooling on the hot sunny days.

Thanks.

Marc

While I don't have an answer for your question, I am hoping you do get one. I was thinking the same thing.

Purchase the A&E window awning of your choice and it's only about a 30 minute diy install. Super easy. Just a suggestion.

That's a great suggestion and I have the skill to do it, I just don't have the desire to do it. For me I'd just rather drop it off and have someone else do it for me.

I bought mine at a rally several years ago. I believe the company was Sun Pro out of Colorado. Not sure of that but I'm looking for the receipt. If you go to the FMCA rally's they are T them. They came by the Motorhome and measured and ordered them two days later they came out and installed them. Very happy with them.

Thanks Phil. I had hoped to do the same since we sold our place at Sandy Pines a few weeks ago but the rally has a waiting list and I'm way down the line for this years event. Who knows, maybe we will get in. If not I may just measure and order them myself and then motivate myself to do the install.

Marc they were not at the FROG talkie but are at most of the major FMCA rallies.
With the sale at Sandy pines where will you spend your summer? We just this week bought a lot at Traverse Bay in Traverse City.

Jeez Phil,
We didn't get to visit you in Cypress Trails yet and now you have another place in Traverse City. You're going to have us traveling around the country trying to catch up to visit! We can't keep up with you! (LOL!!!). Congratulations on your new lot!
Looking forward to seeing you and Dianna in Goshen.
Tom

Tom you are just going to have to come up north. Traverse City is a beautiful fun place. We have gone there several times a year and my mom moved there last year. I think it will work out well. Hopefully you and Margaret will come and see us at at least one place. Looking forward to the rally and seeing you both. Man it's coming up fast.

I'm very familiar with Traverse Bay RV resort. Have stayed there many times and we have very close friends who are also owners there. They are in the middle section since they have a Redwood 5th wheel.

We love the house we had built in 2013 so will stay in Florida for most of the summer. Maybe just travel in the MH for a month of it. I'm sure at some point we will see you at Traverse Bay.

Going To BraddandHall next week to have furniture and captain seats upgraded.

Good to hear Marc. We have a hard time leaving Florida every spring. We love it there. It would be great to see you up north some time. We had a bunch of work done at B&H. Quality work and it has held up well.

Hi Phil & Diana
Congratulations on your new place in Traverse City. I guess it is a good thing we did not make reservations to see at the other place. I assume you have moved on site already.

We don' know our plans yet. We are in South Dakota heading towards Wisconsin and then to the U P and down towards you.

Please PM me the contact info for your place and we can see about availability once we know our plans better.
