Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Outwell Fresno, Pine Hills, and San Diego?
All three are poled awnings at £325 with the same Outtex 3000 fabric and 175–200cm connection height. The San Diego is the lightest (11.1kg) with the simplest design. The Fresno (11.7kg) is similar in footprint with slightly more features. The Pine Hills (12.3kg) uses a dome pole frame for easier pitching on uneven ground and is the only one with an optional inner for sleeping or storage. If you camp on rough terrain or want an inner tent, choose the Pine Hills. If weight and simplicity matter most, choose the San Diego.
What is Outwell’s HookTrack system?
HookTrack is Outwell’s awning attachment system — a series of hooks that slide along your vehicle’s kador rail or roof channel, making it easy to position and tension the awning against your van. It’s included on all Outwell drive-away awnings and is compatible with standard kador rails found on most campervans.
What connection height do Outwell awnings fit?
Outwell drive-away awnings fit vehicles with a kador rail height of 175–200cm. This is slightly lower than Kampa’s 180–210cm range. Most VW T5/T6, Mazda Bongo, and Mercedes Vito conversions fall within this range, but always measure your vehicle’s kador rail height before ordering.
What is DuraAir on Outwell inflatable awnings?
DuraAir is Outwell’s PVC-free air tube technology used in their inflatable awning range. Compared to standard PVC tubes, DuraAir is lighter and more environmentally responsible. It inflates and behaves in the same way as standard air frame tubes but with a reduced environmental footprint.
Can I buy Outwell awnings in Cornwall?
Yes — Newquay Camping Shop stocks Outwell drive-away awnings at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ (Monday to Friday) and online with UK-wide delivery.
