This slide-out awning shields the top of your RV slide-out from debris. It prevents water from pooling and mold from forming. The awning extends and retracts with your slide-out. Awning fits boxes that extend up to 48". Awning rail is included.

Specs:
Without a slide-topper, the roof of your slide-out room is continually exposed and can accumulate leaves and bugs and different types of debris. That debris can build up along the rubber strip at the top of your box, preventing a firm seal when your slide-out is retracted. Rain water can then get in and pool on the top of your slide-out. If you don't clear the water off each time it rains, mold can begin to form. And when your slide-out is pulled in, that mold gets inside your RV.
The Solera RV slide-out awning alleviates those problems by serving as a protective covering over the top of your RV's slide-out. Not only does it prevent debris from collecting on the roof of your slide-out, but it keeps water from pooling and potentially causing damage down the road. Because it mounts directly to the front of the slide box, the slide-out awning is able to automatically extend and retract every time the slide-out room is extended or retracted.
The durable awning fabric holds up to the rigors of the outdoors. It's made of premium 13.5-oz vinyl, which is an upgrade over the 10-oz fabric used in many awnings. This fabric also features heat-welded seams to prevent leaks. And it is made to withstand cold temperatures down to -25 degrees Fahrenheit, so it won't crack or degrade during the winter.
Use the self-tapping screws to secure the included access plate to the side of your slide-out, positioning the plate at the bottom of the T-molding. The two access brackets slide easily onto the access plate's track. The rods that are located at each end of the roller tube, which comes with the awning fabric already mounted, slide through the hole in the two access brackets.
The included awning rail is used to anchor the other side of the fabric to your RV. This rail can be mounted up to 5" above the trim on top of your slide box.

This slide-out awning shields the top of your RV slide-out from debris. It prevents water from pooling and mold from forming. The awning extends and retracts with your slide-out. Awning fits boxes that extend up to 48". Awning rail is included.Definitely watch the video on installation for some good pointers. A friend helped me install this, it took us a couple of hours but we took our time and wanted to make sure everything was sealed and done right. Great Saturday afternoon project though! I installed it on a 2018 KZ Escape 18' trailer for the dinette slide.
Received this 7' Lippert Solera Slide-Topper very quickly from etrailer. It came in a very strong tube with no shipping damage. My room measured 74" which was right on the border between a 6 1/2 and 7 Foot Topper. I went with the 7 foot and am happy with the additional coverage. I put it on by myself in about an hour and everything needed was included. This is a great improvement to our trailer.
We installed this slide topper a year ago and are very happy with it. It came with all the hardware and was mostly a 1 person install with a little help from my wife for the final step. It’s a nice value and good addition to our trailer. My wife made a removable canvas cover for it that protects the vinyl when the trailer is in storage.
John B - 07/27/2020This unit arrived with no damage to the shipping container. Some small scuffs were on the hardware, which to me indicates this was from the factory as all packaging was intacted. Each of the three slide toppers I received had small metal shavings throughout the unit. These were inside the internal packaging which indicates to me that this was from the factory.
The fit was perfect, and quality of the awning was first class. The installation instructions and video made the installation easy. Great customer support.
I ordered one size too long by mistake but it all worked out as it still fit with an overhang on the sides. Mounted easy and is working great so far.
Mark - 01/25/2021I have had no problem with slide out awning works great and does the job it was meant to do
Great service no problem
I had one of these on another trailer and liked it. Making brackets to mount on my rpod took some time but worked out OK.
Excellent product, excellent customer service. I have ordered several products from etrailer always a great experience. I will continue to use etrailer for all my rv needs. The slide topper was just as expected, fast shipping easy to install and works great.
I called the company and the person I spoke with was very nice and answered my question completely. I turned around and ordered the parts they came in good condition and good quality. It did take 6 days to receive the product which aint too bad. I would definitely order from this company again highly recommend
Was easy to install and looks great. Was camping in pine trees and rain so it did exactly what it was supposed to do, keep the slide out roof clean. Worth every penny!
Awning was easy to install and showed up super quick.
Great service and very helpful over phone and taking my order.Received the item in three days very good delivery service will come back when more rv items are needed
Works good, but difficult to self insta ll
This awning is easy to install and looks great!

Review from a similar Solera Slide-Topper in RV Awnings
Slide topper, rail, and hardware arrived with no damage. LCI installation instructions were somewhat vague. installation videos help. I would suggest the instructions add directions to pre-drill all holes in the unit. and display which way the rail should be installed, and whether you line the rail up on top or bottom of the 3" mark. First time I installed slide topper it took 2.5hrs with another persons help sliding in place. All in all installation went fairly smooth.

After searching the internet and checking reviews I chose etrailer for my slide out awning. I have shopped at Camping World who had the same awning but a lower price. After contacting etrailer with their price match I got the awning plus a few dollars less shipped to my door! Communications were excellent! The installation was straight forward with ample instructions. The mounting brackets for the slide out has two positions, an upper and lower to provide clearance between the roll and top of the slide out. I used the upper. Hardware was great quality. There is ample adjustments in the brackets side to side if needed. My trailer a 2020 Aspen Trail 2750BH has the “C” rail as part of the gutter so I didn’t need to install the one provided with the awning! My wife and I installed the awning with two ladders and did not have any problems. Make sure and use the silicone spray as it really makes the awning easy to slide thru the C channel. We are happy with our purchase and will definitely use etrailer for our needs! Thank you for a quality product!

The installation was straightforward. The only issue I ran into in the instructions was there was very little about removing the retaining pin for the springs. Other than that, this unit was installed in one hour.

Ed W gave an excellent service to customer and had me a great confidence on etrailer. I was very happy to see his highly professional handling of somewhat complicated process in that once I received a wrong parts and had to return it and ordering right parts all in once while I was contacted him as third rep. at etrailer. Ed was very efficient and thoughral in completing all these transactions. I attached two photos, first installation with wrong parts and 2nd installation with right parts.
Review from a similar Solera Slide-Topper in RV Awnings
Pretty easy to install, but you definitely need 2 people to mount the rail and the actual awning. 75% of it can be done alone and then just get a helper for the rail and awning. The video that is provided by etrailer was very helpful. Instructions were good. Read them over a couple of times before you start.
