We live in our 337RET about 3 nights a week as a work commute solution. Therefore, our 5’er is stationary with the slide outs extended full time. I have two questions about the awnings. First of all, is the big power awning strong enough to leave extended in the rain? How about if there’s wind? What are the general guidelines?

Second, when the awnings get old (sun torched for the most part) are they easily replaced? Is this a DIY project or is a professional required? They are not shot yet but it’s only a matter of time.

Thanks in advance for your help.
