Troubleshooting
Fabric does not fit frame
Ensure you are using a compatible awning frame. Double-check the dimensions of your frame against the expected fit for this fabric, or verify if specific attachment methods are required by your frame.
Water is pooling on the fabric
Check that the fabric is installed with a proper slope or pitch to allow water runoff. Ensure there are no obstructions or sags in the fabric.
Mildew or mold appears
Clean the affected area thoroughly with a mild soap and water solution. Ensure the fabric is completely dry before storing or retracting it to prevent moisture buildup.
