  • Marathon Roman Shades

    Posted by John on February 18, 2020 at 9:14 pm

    We had the pleasure on this trip of looking at a 2006 Marathon H3 that Marathon had on consignment. (I think someone got a great deal on this one at the show)

    Anyway, it had Roman shades in the bedroom that looked good and did an excellent job at blacking out light. I wondered if any other owners of Marathons of that vintage might know the brand of motorized shades that might have been used in that coach. We have not been happy with the original Silhouettes, or the blackout roller shades I replaced them with.

    Any guidance appreciated!

    John,

    You pick the fabric and Marathon makes it, they use a Somfy motor in the roller. Our 07 had them in the bedroom only, on our new one we put them thru the whole coach.

    Makes a huge difference in heating and cooling the coach, now there using Lutron.
