I have a carefree door awning. I need some ideas on how to stop a leak coming from the door awning. I have put silicone at the point where the awning attaches to the coach. The awning itself does not leak. Somehow the water gets between the frame and the coach and drips down over the center of the door opening.



If anyone has had this problem, what was your solution?

TIA

Dick

I have a Carefree over the door awning that leaks too. I found on mine the water wicks around the ends and fills the lower track, spilling out right over the door. It doesn't actually leak from above directly, but wicks.

It doesn't do it all the time, just during heavy rainfalls, but it sure is irritating!
