Carpet in Imagines

[Famtraveler24]

Taking delivery of our new 2800BH on Tuesday. Not crazy about the carpet under the dinette and seating. Anyone remove it? What did you put down in its place? Does GD have matching flooring you can buy?

Thx.

The primary reason for the carpeting is that it extends several inches past the edge of the slide out floor. This overlap covers the gap between the slide and the main floor.

If you still want to proceed, you can order the flooring material through your dealership who will place the order to GDRV. GDRV is not licensed for retail sales, so you need to go through your dealer. If you click on the "Parts Look Up" tab above, you'll be able to drill down to obtain the flooring part number. I took a look and there are two part numbers listed for the 2020 Imagine 2800. You'll need to wait until you receive your trailer to see which flooring will be installed on your version.

I seem to remember someone writing that the carpet is put down before the walls--is that true? Will Famtraveler24 have to cut out the carpet (leaving behind the small strip between the wall and floor)?

Good questions. I appreciate the info. Seems like it wont be as easy as peel and stick!

The overlap is identifiable in this picture, but it still seems I could add an overlap of vinyl, perhaps with the right kind of edge. Carpet just seems like such a bad idea for spills, pets, etc.

I do not believe that is the case with a slide out , but not sure. Interior walls will probably be sitting on the carpet or congoleum. If carpet were to extend under the slide wall this would be a bad thing as it would be exposed to the outside elements. Just purely speculation here. ( Stupid i is still not working).
