Isabella Ambassador Dawn Awning

The fast and easy awning classic for touring

The Isabella Ambassador, in all it's forms and guises, has been around now for more than 30 years and a lot has come to be expected of it. Considered by some to be the ultimate touring awning, it is straightforward to put up, relatively light in weight and has a depth of 2.5 metres.

The Isabella Ambassador Dawn is produced in a combination of Isabella's well known Isacryl 295g/m², their optimal durable, breathable, fibre-dyed acrylic material and Isabella's IsaRoof 285 g/m² material that is treated with three layers of breathable acrylic. The awning is also offered with no less than three frame types. The Zinox frame is a steel frame with the 'T-rex' locking mechanism, the CarbonX frame is reinforced fibreglass that is lighter and uses Isabella's IsaFix locking mechanism, whilst the Megaframe is offered for those that want to use the awning for long pitches or all-year-round use.

The Ambassador Dawn has versatile panels options - both the front and side panels can be removed or folded-down. So that you can enjoy your awning space and still relax when the side panels are open they have mosquito nets - keeping annoying insects out whilst you enjoy the ventilation that an open window provides. Further ventilation options are provided by the integrated top ventilation at the front apex of the awning.

To ensure a natural inflow of sunlight and to make sure that the awning is a pleasant, light and desirable place to spend time in, the Ambassador Dawn has large, panelled panorama windows in the front as well as windows in the sides.

Comes as standard with: Curtains, Veranda pole, Draught skirt, Wheel Arch Cover, FixOn, Typhoon storm sashes, Awning bag, pole bag, Peg bag and peg remover

Awning Specifications

• Number of Doors: 6
• Main Awning Material: Isacryl 295 g/m² - a spinneret-dyed ( i.e. the fibres are dyed ), textured-weave, durable acrylic material. Isacryl has the highest achievable fade-resistance thanks to the pigmentation method. The density of the weave plus the impregnation all the way through the material prevent water ingress. Nevertheless, Isacryl is a breathable material, which facilitates the best possible indoor climate in the awning.
• Roof Material: Isaroof 285 g/m² - a UV protective acrylate-coated polyester, with an added top coat in 3 layers.

Frame Type: Three Types Available

• Zinox Frame - a durable tubular steel frame with welded corners and double screw lock on the poles.
   
• CarbonX - a fibreglass frame with Isafix locking clamps. Suitable for both permanent and touring caravanning. Carbon Fibres are combined with glass fibres in varying amounts, according to pole diameters, to offer maximum strength. 
   
• MegaFrame is designed for year-round use with a full awning which can remain standing all year. The Zinox MegaFrame is supplied with two extra rafter poles, as well as one Hercules 32.5mm.

Isabella Poles Types

Carbon X Frame

A carbon-fibre reinforced fibreglass frame, is suitable for both permanent and touring caravanning. Carbon Fibres are combined with glass fibres in varying amounts, according to pole diameters, to offer maximum strength. 

The frame is light and fully corrosion resistant. All CarbonX frames are supplied with the IsaFix locking mechanism. With IsaFix in place, keeping the frame in position is easy. With one press of the hand grip, a discreet 'click' tells you IsaFix is locked in position.

Zinox Steel Frame

The Zinox Steel Frame is hot galvanised both inside and out to extend its life and to meet all load bearing requirements. The steel frame is made of ISO-certified high-strength steel. The strength of the Zinox steel frame makes it particularly suitable for pitching your caravan permanently - and it is included with all All-in-One and winter part awnings, because caravanning in the off-peak seasons demands geat structural stability due to weather conditions such as strong winds and snow.

The frame is light and fully corrosion resistant. All CarbonX frames are supplied with the IsaFix locking mechanism. With IsaFix in place, keeping the frame in position is easy. With one press of the hand grip, a discreet 'click' tells you IsaFix is locked in position.

Zinox MegaFrame

The Zinox MegaFrame is a durable tubular steel frame ( material thickness: 32mm / 1.2mm ) with welded corners and double screw lock on the poles. MegaFrame is designed for year-round use with a full awning which can remain standing all year and can withstand powerful storms, snowfall and torrential rain. 

The Zinox MegaFrame is supplied with two extra rafter poles, as well as one Hercules 32.5mm

Isabella Sizing Chart

To Find The Correct Awning Size For Your Caravan

Full Awnings
To find the correct size of awning for your caravan you need to find the 'A' measurement. This is often given in handbooks by the manufacturer of the caravan, but if you cannot find the 'A' measurement then you can measure it yourself.

Position the caravan on even, level ground. Measure from the ground level at a point directly below the awning rail at the front of the caravan to the ground level point directly below the awning rail at the rear of the caravan. You can do this quite easily using a piece of string or chord. This measurement will be the red line shown on the image.

Porch Awnings
Generally, you do not use the 'A' measurement for porch awnings. Instead you will want the awning rail height from ground level - shown as 'H' on the diagram. Unlike the awning rail height which is a fixed dimension, the width of the awning - shown as 'L' on the diagram is variable. Some people do not like to fix an awning across a window as shown on the left hand side of the diagram, so they would probably buy an awning either with a smaller width or wider width if room permits. Essentially the choice is yours to make.
