Turn your RV awning into a shaded outdoor living space. The Carefree of Colorado SunBlocker panel slides directly into the open slot on most standard awning roller bars and cuts approximately 85% of incoming sunlight and glare -- keeping your patio cooler in the morning and afternoon without walling off your surroundings entirely. The open-weave construction lets air move through, so you stay comfortable even on warm days.
Most RV awnings are designed to block overhead sun, but low-angle morning and afternoon rays pour straight in from the sides. The SunBlocker hangs from the roller bar to fill that gap. It is not a solid blackout panel -- the open-weave fabric is intentionally semi-transparent so you retain sightlines to the campground while dramatically reducing heat and UV exposure on your patio furniture, slide-out surfaces, and your own skin.
At 6 ft of drop and 17 ft of length, this panel is sized to span most standard 17-foot RV awnings end-to-end. The vinyl-coated 100% woven polyester resists moisture, mildew, and fading through repeated seasons of outdoor use. Grommets spaced along the bottom edge accept the included ground stakes so the panel stays taut and doesn't billow in a breeze.
Slips into the open slot on most standard Carefree and compatible awning roller bars -- no tools, no drilling, no hardware modifications required.
Open-weave fabric cuts roughly 85% of sunlight and glare while still allowing airflow and partial visibility through the panel.
100% woven polyester with a durable vinyl coating resists UV degradation, moisture, and mildew for multi-season outdoor use.
Pre-installed grommets along the bottom edge work with the included ground stakes to keep the panel taut and controlled in wind.
The 6 ft x 17 ft SunBlocker is best suited for Class A, Class C, and fifth-wheel setups running a standard 17-foot awning. It works equally well in fixed campsite situations -- seasonal camping, snowbird pads, or extended full-timing stays -- where a more permanent shade solution is desirable. The stakes keep it manageable in moderate wind, though it should be retracted in high-wind conditions just like the awning itself.
The open-weave, vinyl-coated polyester construction is chosen specifically for outdoor durability. Vinyl coating protects the polyester fibers from UV breakdown and prevents water from being absorbed, so the panel dries quickly after rain. The black colorway minimizes glare reflection back into the RV interior. This is not a waterproof rain screen -- it is a shade and privacy panel designed to reduce solar load and block sightlines into your patio.
