Fiamma Repair Kit Plus

admin — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 11:26:05 +0000

I’ve got a great repair kit, just in case the worst happens (and occasionally it does). It is no longer necessary to replace the fabric of the awning if it gets cut! Fiamma have created an awning repair kit for around £10, it’s an absolute life saver. The kit includes 3 Transparent PVC Strips 150mm x 60mm to repair any holes in an awning in seconds, allowing a quick fix to a potentially horrible situation. I’ve only used mine the once, and I noticed I had a hole 4 or 5 inches across. All I had to do was apply the clear patch and that was it. You could hardly see where the rip had even occurred. It’s a great addition and a life saver when you need it.

I got it from Discover on this occassion as they had it in for the best price. Click on the following link to get yours as well - Awning Repair Kit.

When you consider what the alternatives to the kit are as well, a new awning which can run well into the thousands, or an awning that will eventually have a new unwanted door appearing in the side, it may well be the best £10 investment you ever make. In terms of whether the kit will last and how long term a replacement it is, im really not sure. Anyone had any good experiences of the kit or any horror stories about how it has not worked for them after taking the awning out a week after repairing it.

Fiamma Caravan Store

I’ve found a great little awning from Fiamma. The awning is a “Caravan Store”. It’s a simple awning which does everything any other awning does but for half the price. Sure it’s not the most robust awning on the market, but for something that you can put up and take down in seconds it isn’t much of an issue. The Caravan Store seems to tick the box of what an awning is all about. It keeps the sun and rain off your head. It comes with its own water proof bag too.

The Fiamma Caravanstore awning offers a convenient and realistically priced alternative to the traditional caravan awning. The Fiamma Caravanstore can be fitted as required or secured permanently. The awning rolls neatly away into a soft vinyl zippered case and the awning bag slides into a rope track on your Caravan. After unzipping the bag, you manually roll out the awning and your ready to go.

Fiamma F45i Awning

I’ve got a Fiamma F45i awning at the moment. It’s got a few features that aren’t available on some other awnings. I particularly like the shock absorber system that fits the awning to the caravan; it just means that when the wind gets up it won’t fall apart. The awning also has a great locking mechanism keeping the roof tension perfect throughout our trip.

I decided to get it online because I’d have a chance to scour the market looking for a fair price. Fiamma awnings are really good value, they’re not the cheapest out there but I think I got some really good quality kit for a relatively bargain price.
