  • Broken Window Replacement

    Posted by Liam on September 7, 2014 at 12:24 pm

    We spent the week on Schroon Lake in the Adirondacks at a phenominal 3yr old state park called Scaroon Manor. Highly recomend.

    A big storm was due to roll through so we were stowing the manual Zip Dee awnings when the cast aluminum head on the forward side of the main awning broke sending the arm crashng into the middle side window (the one with the sliding section on the bottom).

    Zip Dee overnighted a new part and it was a simple repair (the fact that this was “part #1” on the parts list sounded ominous in terms of failure rate – or was just a strange coincidence)

    I will need to order replacement glass from Prevost. I am curious whether the “tilt-out” or “awning” style windows on the newer coaches are backward compatible with the sliding window used on the ’92 busses. I am interested in getting more cross ventilation when dry-camping in warmer weather.

    I think you will find the awning style side windows (complete with top and bottom sections) will fit the same opening as you have.

    You should check with Prevost parts on that question. I would also guess the glass could be replaced at any competent glass shop.

    Do you drive with the sliders open, and if so does that increase the odor from the holding tank?
