Hi. We have ordered a kampa air awning for our new caravan My question as a novice is do I need to buy a draught skirt to go along the bottom of the caravan or do most awnings come with these.

The Kampa website page for this awning here states "Draught skirt included" under the Key Features heading.

Thanks everyone. We managed to put up the awning quite easily in the sun and we even managed to take it down in the snow.

One other small issue I found was that the pitch I was given sloped uphill quite a bit. When I inflated the tubes the last ground to van tube had a kink in it which I couldn't get out. I managed to pull the van forward a little bringing said tube down the slope a little, this sorted it. Just a little tip for anyone erecting on a steep slope!

What are they like in any kind of wind. It seems to me from looking at them on a tent in a local camping shop as if they would bow inwards with the wind.
