Westfield Orion 300 FAQs
What height vehicle will this fit?
With three different connector options, it fits vehicles from 180cm to 270cm tall. Just measure from the ground to your awning rail to know which connector you need.
Do I need to buy a connector separately?
Yes, the connector is sold separately since there are three different sizes - this means you only buy the one that fits your van.
How long does it take to pitch?
Most people take about 20 minutes once they're familiar with it. The air beam system makes it much quicker than traditional pole awnings.
Can I leave it up while I drive away?
Yes! That's what makes it a drive-away awning. Just unzip the tunnel section, and you're free to use your van while the awning stays pitched.
What's the best way to attach it to my van?
You've got options - use the supplied beading (4mm or 6mm), pole-and-strap method, or magnetic drive-away kit (sold separately).
Is it stable enough for British weather?
Absolutely - it comes with storm poles and tie-down kit as standard, plus the air beam system is surprisingly robust in wind.
How does the ventilation work?
There's a permanent top vent system, plus you can use the mesh panels in the doors for extra airflow when needed.
Can I add more space?
Yes - you can add either the Universal annex or ERIS annex for extra living or sleeping space.
What's the difference between pitching and total weight?
Pitching weight (16kg) is what you'll handle during setup. Total weight (21.2kg) includes all accessories and the bag.
Does it need a groundsheet?
It's optional - you can buy a tubbed groundsheet separately if you want extra protection from ground moisture.
