FAQ awning covers
Creases occur when the sun protection fabric is made up and folded. In the folded area, a dark line can become visible against the light, especially with light colors, which is caused by buckling of the fiber (light refraction).
These can occur along the side seams, in the seam area and in the middle of the panels. The fabric cover is doubled at the seams. This results in different roll-up diameters. The tension created by the lateral arms, the tesioning system, the sagging of the winding shaft and/or the front profile can promote these effects. Waviness, puckering can also occur if a "water pooling" has formed during heavy rain.
Solar protection fabrics are impregnated with a water-repellent finish and remain rain resistant during short periods of light rain resistance when used according to the manufacturer's instructions and at a pitch of at least 14°. During longer periods of wetness and/or heavy rainfall, the awning must remain closed or be retracted to prevent damage. Once the fabric cover has become wet, the awning must be extended again to dry immediately after the rain to avoid mildew stains.
The fabric cover is usually kept almost permanently under tension by an active spring system. Seams and hems act as reinforcement, but must also be able to withstand the greatest stress. When the fabric cover is rolled up, the hems and seams lie on top of each other, which increases the pressure and tension. As a result, they are particularly stressed and stretched. This can cause the side seams to hang down slightly when the awning is extended.
Dust can be removed with a soft brush when dry. Leaves and similar soiling should be removed immediately. Small stains should be removed with water and a commercially available, preferably liquid mild detergent (5% soap solution, water temperature max. 30 °C). Rinse thoroughly with water. Detailed instructions with all important information on operration, care and maintenance are included with every awning delivery. Click here for more information on awning cleaning.
