I've had window awnings and I now have an awning on my slide. There are advantages to both. As Robert says the window awning will handle wind better mostly because they are smaller. The bigger awning on the slide gives you more shade and a place to sit when sunny or raining. I had mine installed in the Rio Grande Valley by a vendor at the DonWest Flea Market. The cost was about half the CW cost and he came to my site to install it. If you're going to be in the valley over the winter I recommend you go there and talk to them. There are 2 vendors, one for each brand, so you have your choice.
