FAQs

What material is the sunshade sail made of?

The sunshade sail is made from PU coated oxford fabric, which is known for its water-resistant, UV-protective, and mould-proof properties.

What are the dimensions of the sunshade sail?

The sunshade sail has dimensions of 4 x 4 x 4 meters, forming a triangle.

What is included with the sunshade sail for installation?

The sail includes stainless steel fasteners at each corner and three 1.5-meter PE ropes for installation.

How do I ensure proper water runoff?

For optimal water runoff, install two corners of the sail higher than the others to create a slope.

Can this sail be used in heavy rain or strong winds?

The sail is water-resistant for light rain but is not designed to withstand heavy rainfall or strong winds. It is recommended to take it down in adverse weather conditions.

What is the recommended way to clean the sail?

Clean the sail with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.

Is this sail suitable for permanent outdoor installation?

While durable, permanent installation in harsh weather conditions is not recommended. For longevity, consider removing it during extreme weather or off-seasons.

Troubleshooting

Sail is sagging excessively

Increase the tension on the ropes. Ensure all anchor points are secure and capable of holding tension.

Water pooling on the sail after rain

Re-adjust the mounting points to create a steeper slope. Ensure at least two corners are significantly higher than the lowest corner for proper drainage.

Difficulty attaching ropes to anchor points

Consider using additional carabiners or extending ropes if the provided ones are too short for your specific setup. Ensure anchor points are appropriate.

Fabric appears to be developing mould

Clean the affected area with a mild soap and water solution. Ensure the sail is completely dry before re-deploying or storing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Identify three anchor points for the triangular sail.
