If the channel extends to either side of the van, a small off cut of hose pipe can be slotted over, and this will allow the rain water to be deflected away from the van.

 I bought this product from Towsure, 12 metre strip whilst in Southampton a couple of weeks ago after reading a previous thread.. Cut it in half and ran it into the awning channel of my caravan last week.

We have had a week of heavy rain most days this week and the sides of the van are still clean without one single streak down them, where previously I was having to keep cleaning them off.

In my opinon worth every penny, just wish I had known about it earlier.

Couldn't get any words in after posting the above pic

Its self explanatory

As has been said the piping is available at caravan dealers and does cut down the black streaks well

That's a pretty fancy veranda you've got on top of your Ace, do you have any height restriction problems?

Have a look at THE STREAKER, designed specifically with this in mind and comes in bags of two, one for either side of the van. An excellent peice of kit and it works superbly.
