Mounting of Solera RV Slide-Out Awning
Question:
Do you have a sketch showing clearance minimum for top? Is it 3” from top flange too?

For the Solera RV Slide-Out Awning, # LCV000165063 and all other awnings in this category, if at all possible, you will want to mount with a three inch height above top of slide out flange so as to provide the needed slope for proper draining when extended.
Please note the linked installation video where Shane walks through the steps of measuring and installation.
I highly suggest that you use Butyl Tape, # 362BT-18x1-50 when making the installation.
