This ultimate inflatable awning, gives full caravan coverage and is available in numerous sizes, with A measurement sizes from 11 to 19 (equivalent to 900cm to 1125cm), meaning it can fit to the vast majority of caravans.

Quality features of the Dometic Residence AirThis inspiring caravan awning boasts many features like an integrated inflatable structure with single point inflation and oversized air tubes, Zip-Out Panels, external blinds, Dometic's Weathershield All-Season fabric (breathable polycotton material construction), an integral front canopy with apex mesh ventilation, Crystal Clear PVC windows, Quickpitch Guying System, Dual-Pitch Roof System, AccessoryTrack, SabreLink Ready Tabs and the Dometic's Limpet ready system. Let's look at these in more detail...
Dometic's Weathershield fabric explained!The Dometic Residence awning is made from a breathable Weathershield All-Season polycotton. It is a very durable material, made from a polyester and cotton mix, that is extremely resistant to inclement weather and will provide protection throughout the year, be it for long site stays or quick weekend getaways. This breathable polycotton material construction makes you stay cooler in hot climates and well protected in harsh climates, like the UK winter months.
The benefits of polycottonThe mix of the polycotton allows air to pass through, which greatly reduces condensation and regulates the awning interior temperature on hot days.
The Dometic Residence Air All Season is ideal for seasonal use and for touring in both warm and colder climates. Of course, the Weathershield is a UV resistant material, meaning you can leave it up for longer periods at a time, compared to other awnings that are made from not so UV resistant material and you will be the envy of the campsite for many seasons to come.
What space is there in this traditional full awning internal?The Residence Air All Season awning is an impressive 275cm in depth, creating a huge usable space for dining, entertaining, storage or extra bedroom areas. There is also great head room, with a real airy, spacious feel inside the awning internal space, which is mainly due to Dometic's patented Dual Pitch Roof System, which also greatly increases water flow off the awning roof. It is also equipped with an integrated inflatable canopy, providing additional shelter from the sun in hot climates and rain entry on wet days.
Dometic's innovative air frame technology that can be pitched in a matter of minutesThe Dometic Residence awning boasts an enviable quick pitch time. After connecting the Residence Air All Season to the awning rail, you simply need to open the single point inflation valve cap (single point inflation opened by unscrewing cap) and then inflate to 10psi using the 12v Gale pump Dometic include along with this ultimate inflatable caravan awning.
Packing away after your holiday is a dream, as you only need to open the multiple deflation points and you will be on your way home in no time at all. It is worth mentioning that the front and side panels of the Residence Air can be easily zipped out, which has two great benefits. Without the front and side panels attached, this full awning becomes much easier to manage when feeding it through the awning rail. Also, this static awning comes in two bags, enabling you to store the main awning separate from the front and side panels, allowing you to distribute the weight, making transportation easy.
Why is the Dometic Residence All Season awning extremely resistant in harsh climates?The Dometic Residence All Season awning will provide protection in unpredictable weather due to innovative air frame technology which involves oversized 15cm air tubes, which ensure this inflatable awning remains extremely robust and rigid once you have pitched up. Also, this Dometic Residence Awning boasts flexibility as the air frame can flex in the wind, meaning you and your loved ones are extremely resistant to inclement weather, making sure you can have the best adventure away possible.
Veranda storm poles can be used in two configurations. Firstly as a veranda for folding your window over and secondly as a storm bracing bar to help deter water and keep the awning tensioned. Be it a weekend get away or for seasonal use, this ultimate inflatable caravan awning with its full caravan coverage, will keep you dry, warm and give you so much more usable space.
The Dometic Residence Air has zipped external window blindsThe zipped external window blinds can be used to control the amount of light that enters the awning internal space, also giving a great degree of privacy if needed and provides protection in harsh climates.
When the external blinds are unzipped, you can watch campsite life pass you by through the Crystal Clear PVC windows, which give a very clear view, but also act as a durable barrier during stormier times.

This thoughtful design element is crucial for maintaining a comfortable living environment, particularly during the summer months, enhancing the overall experience for occupants by providing a cool and well-ventilated space.
The awning's panels and main structure can be divided into two separate bags, with the panels weighing approximately 16 kg and the main structure around 30 kg.
