Frequently Asked Questions
The Side W Pro Shade is designed for Fiamma F45 and F80 awnings with a 250cm extension fitted at heights between 225-280cm from the ground. To use this panel with F65, F70 or other awnings, you need to purchase the optional Fiamma Kit Side adapter separately, which allows the panel to mount securely to alternative awning models including Omnistor 5102/4900 and Tristor/Tristor 2 awnings.
Stand facing towards your motorhome or campervan and determine which side of the awning you want the panel fitted to. If you want it on the left side when looking at your vehicle, choose the left-hand version. If you want it on the right side, select the right-hand version. The panel orientation affects where the window and curtain track position relative to your seating area, so choose based on your preferred layout and sun exposure.
The package includes the full side panel made from rot-proof vinyl with an integrated large Crystal window and roll-up privacy curtain. Also supplied as standard are an aluminium telescopic tension rafter for hanging the panel, elastic hooks for securing to the awning frame, and ground pegs for anchoring the bottom of the panel. No additional tools or hardware are required for installation beyond what's provided.
Installation is straightforward and can typically be completed in 10-15 minutes. Simply insert the aluminium rafter into the awning's lead rail or bracket, secure the elastic hooks around the awning frame, and peg the bottom extension to the ground. The panel requires no drilling, cutting, or specialist tools, making it accessible for anyone to set up regardless of experience level. For F65 and F70 awning users, adapter kit installation adds minimal time to the process.
Regular maintenance keeps your panel in excellent condition. Brush off loose dirt and debris with a soft brush. Clean the vinyl using mild soap or detergent like Marseille soap mixed with clean water, then rinse thoroughly. Avoid aggressive chemicals, high-pressure washers or solvents that can damage the vinyl or Crystal window. For the Crystal window, use only warm water and a soft cloth. When storing for winter or extended periods, ensure the panel is completely dry before packing away. Open and close the privacy curtain slowly and gently to prevent damage to the mechanism.
The Side W Pro Shade is specifically designed to provide wind and rain protection. The full-height vinyl panel extends to the ground, blocking wind gusts and deflecting rain away from your outdoor living area. The panel is made from rot-proof vinyl that resists water ingress and won't degrade when exposed to UK weather conditions. However, in extreme weather with very strong gales or heavy downpours, ensure all pegs are securely fastened and the panel is properly tensioned. The privacy curtain can be rolled up if you need partial ventilation during warm weather whilst maintaining some protection.
Yes, the full-height solid vinyl construction with ground extension creates an effective privacy barrier blocking the view from neighbouring pitches. The large Crystal window allows you to enjoy natural light and views outward whilst preventing sightlines inward. The integrated roll-up privacy curtain adds an extra layer of control, allowing you to draw it when you need complete privacy and roll it up when you want an open feel. Many users combine the Side W Pro Shade with a Fiamma Blocker or Blocker Pro front panel to create an enclosed privacy room that offers complete seclusion without the cost of dedicated room enclosures.
The UV-resistant, rot-proof vinyl construction is built for durability across multiple seasons of camping. With proper maintenance and storage, the Side W Pro Shade typically provides 5-10 years of reliable service. The longevity depends on frequency of use, maintenance practices and storage conditions. Always store the panel in a dry location when not in use. Avoid leaving it deployed in direct sunlight for extended periods when your motorhome is stationary, and allow it to dry completely before packing away to prevent mildew or water damage to the fabric and mechanisms.
The Side W Pro Shade is specifically designed for Fiamma awnings with a 250cm extension. If your awning has a different projection, the panel may not fit correctly or provide optimal coverage. Check your awning's extension measurement before ordering. For awnings with non-standard extensions or alternative brands, Fiamma offers adapter kits and alternative panel options that may suit your specific setup. Contact a Fiamma specialist retailer to confirm the correct panel and any required adapters for your particular motorhome awning model.
