On my 2005 National class A, to wash 100% of the window requires removal of the sliding screen. It is not obvious to me how to remove the screens in order to do a 100% window wash. Suggestions?

On my coach, (not a National), I slide the screen slightly open...lift the window screen... and the bottom of the screen comes out of the bottom track.
Yours may be different, if so ...Google "removing rv window screens".

Like Mel stated, open slightly, push-up, then pull the bottom inward. There are two plastic "Springs" that keep the screen in place, make sure you don't lose them as they keep the screen in place. Installation is just the reverse, insert at the top, push-up, insert bottom into channel and release. BTW be sure you have the correct channel, one is for the screen, the other for the window glass.

X2 on the above. Once you've done it once, you'll get the knack. On my 2004 Dolphin, the springs are metal and are attached but same idea. I remove them as needed, spray with greased lightening, let them sit for a few minutes and then use the kitchen faucet sprayer to hose them off. Gets the screens nice and clean.
