The Kookaburra Woven Shade Sail Canopy has an independently tested UPF34+ rating, which means it blocks over 96.5% of harmful UV rays.
The shade sail is water-resistant, providing shelter from light rain. It is not fully waterproof and is best suited for short-term outdoor use rather than prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.
Installation involves securely anchoring the corners of the sail to sturdy points such as posts, walls, or trees using appropriate hardware. Ensure a slight slope for water runoff.
Clean with a soft brush or cloth and mild soapy water, then rinse thoroughly and air dry completely. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
While durable for outdoor use, it is best suited for short-term applications. For longevity, it is recommended to take it down during harsh weather conditions, such as heavy rain, strong winds, or snow.
The small holes in the weave are designed to allow hot air to escape, helping to keep the area underneath cooler, especially in warmer climates. This feature enhances comfort without significantly compromising UV protection.
GSM stands for Grams per Square Meter and indicates the weight and thickness of the fabric. A higher GSM generally means a thicker, more durable fabric. This product's specifications are optimized for UV protection and water resistance.
Increase the tension on the anchor points. Ensure all corners are pulled taut and secured firmly. Check that anchor points are stable and not shifting.
Adjust the installation to create a steeper slope. Ensure there are no flat areas where water can collect. Water pooling can lead to stretching and reduced effectiveness.
While some fading is normal with UV exposure, significant discoloration may indicate prolonged exposure. Consider rotating the sail or using it for shorter durations during peak sun hours. Clean gently as per care instructions.
Clean the affected area immediately with a mild soap and water solution. Ensure the sail is thoroughly dried before re-installation or storage. Proper airflow and drying are key to prevention.
