When your patio awning fabric tears, fades, or cracks, replacing just the fabric is far more economical than replacing the entire awning arm assembly. This 13.5-oz vinyl replacement fabric from Lippert is purpose-built for 20-foot Solera awnings and is also cross-compatible with Dometic and Carefree patio awning systems of the same size. The White Fade colorway features a white-to-fade tone on the exterior with a white underside, keeping your campsite bright and comfortable. Cold-crack tested to -25F, heat-welded seams, and a 5-year limited warranty back every panel.
Lippert engineered this fabric for RV owners who demand more than a cosmetic fix. At 13.5 ounces per square yard, this vinyl is substantially heavier and more puncture-resistant than economy-grade replacement fabrics. The heat-welded seams eliminate the stitched seam failures that cause leaks over time -- critical at the hem and lead bar pockets where stress concentrates during wind loading.
The fabric width of 19 feet 1 inch is intentionally sized approximately 11 inches shorter than the 20-foot awning assembly width. This is normal and correct -- awning fabric is always measured shorter than the arm span to account for the roller tube hardware on each end. Do not order a 20-foot fabric for a 20-foot awning.
Heavy commercial-grade vinyl resists tearing, UV degradation, and puncture better than lighter 9-oz or 11-oz alternatives.
Fabric remains flexible in sub-zero temperatures, preventing cracking and splitting during cold-weather storage or shoulder-season camping.
Seams are thermally fused rather than stitched, eliminating needle holes that allow water infiltration at stress points along the hem and lead bar pocket.
A polypropylene cord is integrated for use as an optional LED light track rope. Light track hardware and LED lights are sold separately.
This fabric is designed as a direct replacement for 20-foot Lippert Solera patio awnings. The Solera platform uses a standard roller tube and end cap design shared with several other awning brands, making this fabric compatible with:
Always confirm your awning assembly length before ordering. The fabric width of 19'1" is correct for a 20-foot assembly -- this is not an error. If your awning assembly measures 18 feet, you need a different size.
Replacing awning fabric on a Solera, Dometic, or Carefree awning is a DIY-friendly project for most RV owners with basic hand tools. The fabric slides into the roller tube channel and the lead bar channel. The poly light cord feeds through a separate track channel if an LED rope light is desired.
