FAQs

Does the awning require an external power source?

No, this model features an integrated solar panel that charges the internal battery, making it energy-independent.

Can I install this on any wall type?

The awning can be mounted on various wall types, but you must ensure you have the appropriate wall anchors for your specific material (brick, concrete, or timber).

Should I leave the awning open during a storm?

No, it is highly recommended to retract the awning during high winds or heavy rainfall to prevent damage to the frame and fabric.

How do I clean the awning fabric?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for spot cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Is the motor waterproof?

The motor is designed for outdoor use and is weather-resistant, but it should not be submerged in water.
