We are thinking of getting an air awning (probably porch size) sometime in the not too distant future.  We have an Adria Adora Isonzo 2015 model and the awning rail is 250cm in height.  Most of the air awnings we have seen for caravans reach their top limit
at 250cms which is fine if you are on a completely level pitch but as often happens you are not so when OH levels the awnings at present they are sometimes a bit short which is why we have considered a motorhome version as some of them go up to 290 cms. Is
there any reason why we couldn't do this? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make at 250cms awning become a bit "taller"?  I am aware that there are people who can make alterations to mudguards etc is this the only option? We would prefer to buy an
awning that fits in the first place with out alterations if possible.

Many thanks for anyones input.

    We have an Adria Adiva (derivitive of the Adora.)

    We also have a Kampa Air 200 porch awning.

    We have been on many pitches over the last two seasons - most level but some were not. The awning coped with everything as there is a bit of flexibility when aligning it with van on the air legs -you do all this before nailing the skirts down. Never had
    an issue.
