Product Information

Full details

The Outwell Universal Access Zone Groundsheet is designed for motorhome and campervan owners using driveaway awnings. Its key benefit is creating a sealed, draught-free, and mud-free connection between your vehicle and awning, enhancing comfort and cleanliness. A key consideration is ensuring the awning's main groundsheet overlaps it correctly to prevent water pooling. This groundsheet provides a durable, waterproof polyethylene floor for the crucial connection area, effectively blocking drafts and offering insulation.

FAQs

How do I ensure the best seal?

Position the groundsheet carefully to fill the gap and ensure the main awning groundsheet overlaps it generously. Secure firmly to the vehicle's wheel arches.

Can I leave the groundsheet attached when I drive away?

No, absolutely not. The groundsheet must be removed before driving the vehicle to prevent damage to the groundsheet, awning, and vehicle.

What is the material of the groundsheet?

The groundsheet is made from durable, double-coated waterproof polyethylene.

How heavy is the groundsheet?

It weighs approximately 0.8 kg (800 g).

What are the packed dimensions?

The groundsheet packs down to a compact size of 32 x 16 x 4 cm in its carry bag.

Is this groundsheet suitable for all motorhomes and awnings?

It is designed for a universal fit and is compatible with most driveaway awnings. Always check measurements and fitment if unsure.

How do I attach it to the vehicle?

It comes with pegs and elastic cables that are designed to attach to your wheel arches for a secure fit.

Troubleshooting

Groundsheet won't stay secure

Ensure elastic cables are firmly attached to wheel arches and pegs are driven securely into the ground. Check for uneven terrain that might prevent a stable fit.

Water pooling underneath the groundsheet

Verify that the main awning groundsheet is correctly overlapping the Access Zone Groundsheet. Adjust the positioning if necessary to create a proper runoff for rainwater.

Groundsheet feels too tight or loose

Slightly adjust the position of your awning or vehicle relative to the groundsheet. The elastic cables offer some flexibility, but a significant mismatch may require repositioning.

Groundsheet is dirty and difficult to clean

Use a soft brush with water and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly and ensure it is completely dry before storing.
