FAQs

What is the maximum weight of the base when filled?

When filled with sand, the base can weigh up to 28 kg. When filled with water, it weighs up to 23 kg.

What size parasol poles can this base accommodate?

This base is suitable for parasol poles with diameters of 32 mm, 34 mm, or 38 mm.

What is the maximum canopy size this base can support?

The base is suitable for market parasols with a canopy diameter of up to 3 meters.

Do I need to buy sand or water separately?

Yes, you will need to purchase sand or water to fill the base to achieve stability.

Is the base suitable for use in windy conditions?

Yes, when filled adequately with sand or water, the base provides good stability for use in moderate wind conditions. For very strong winds, it is recommended to close the parasol.

What material is the parasol base made of?

The base is made of strong, anti-ageing HDPE plastic, which is durable and weather-resistant.

How do I assemble the base?

Assembly is straightforward. You fill the base with your chosen material (sand or water), then insert the parasol pole and secure it with the built-in screw.

Troubleshooting

Parasol is wobbly even after filling the base

Ensure the base is filled to its maximum capacity. If filled with water, consider using sand for heavier weight. Also, check that the parasol pole is securely tightened within the base's pole holder.

Water or sand is leaking from the base

Verify that the fill cap is screwed on tightly and securely. Inspect the cap and the base opening for any damage that might prevent a proper seal.

Parasol pole does not fit snugly

This base is designed for specific pole diameters (32mm, 34mm, 38mm). If your pole is slightly different, consider using pole adapters if available, or ensure you have selected the correct size for your parasol.
