Product Information
Full details
The Freeport Park Double Garden Parasol is designed for homeowners and outdoor enthusiasts who need expansive shade for large patios, decks, or garden seating areas. Its primary benefit is the unique dual-top design, which provides significantly more coverage than a standard umbrella, protecting users from harmful UV rays. While this parasol offers excellent stability with its steel construction, users should note that the large surface area makes it susceptible to damage during high winds, necessitating that it be closed when not in use or during inclement weather.

FAQs
Are base weights included?
The product includes the steel cross base, but weights to secure the base to the ground are not included.
Can I leave this outside in the rain?
While the fabric is durable, it is best to close and cover the parasol during heavy rain or wind to prevent damage.
How do I clean the fabric?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soapy water for spot cleaning. Allow it to air dry completely while open.
Is the parasol tiltable?
This model is designed for a fixed vertical position to maximize the stability of the dual-top frame.
What is the material of the frame?
The frame is constructed from high-quality, durable steel for both the central pole and the support ribs.
Does it offer UV protection?
Yes, the canopy is made from specialized fabric designed to provide optimum protection against harmful UV rays.
Troubleshooting
The parasol canopy does not open smoothly
Check the internal runner and ribs for obstructions or debris. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the folding mechanism.
The unit feels unstable
Verify that all bolts on the cross base are tightened. Ensure additional ballast/weights are placed on the base frame.
The pole leans even when base is tightened
Ensure the ground surface is perfectly level; adjust the base position or add shims if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly: Begin by connecting the segments of the steel pole. Once vertical, secure the cross base to the bottom of the pole using the provided hardware.
Placement: Choose a level site with sufficient clearance on all sides to allow for the expansive dual-canopy range.
Anchoring: Use heavy-duty base weights specifically designed for cross bases. Never rely on the cross base alone in open, windy areas.
Maintenance: Periodically wipe the steel pole with a damp cloth to remove dust. If the canopy fabric becomes dirty, brush off loose debris and spot clean with mild soap and water.
Storage: Always close the parasol during high winds and store it in a dry, covered area during the off-season to prolong the life of the fabric and metal components.
