FAQs

What is the best material to fill the parasol base with?

Water is a common and easy choice, but sand offers greater weight and stability, especially in windy conditions. The choice depends on your stability needs and the size of your parasol.

How much weight does the base provide?

The total weight depends entirely on the material you use to fill it. A 20-litre capacity can hold a significant amount of water or sand, providing substantial stability.

Can I use this base with any parasol?

This base is designed for Harbour Housewares Parasols. While it may fit other parasol poles, we recommend verifying the pole diameter and base opening for a secure fit.

How do I clean the parasol base?

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scouring pads that could damage the plastic.

What are the dimensions of the base?

The base measures approximately 42cm in width and 43cm in depth, with a height of 22cm.

Is the material environmentally friendly?

Yes, the base is produced from 100% green friendly or recycled plastic, making it a sustainable choice.

What warranty is included?

The parasol base comes with a 2-year warranty for peace of mind.

Troubleshooting

Parasol is unstable or wobbles.

Ensure the base is completely filled with a suitable weighting material (sand or water). Check that the parasol pole is securely fastened within the base.

Base appears to be leaking.

Verify that the filling port is completely closed and sealed. Inspect the base for any cracks or damage. If damage is found, discontinue use.

Difficulty inserting parasol pole.

Ensure there are no obstructions in the base opening and that the parasol pole is free of debris. Check if the parasol pole diameter is suitable for the base.

Plastic has become brittle or faded.

Prolonged exposure to harsh UV rays can degrade plastic over time. Consider storing the base indoors during the off-season or extreme weather to maintain its condition.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

Ensure the parasol pole is compatible with the base's central opening.
Place the base on a level, stable surface in your desired outdoor location.
Open the filling port.
Fill the base with your chosen weighting material (water, sand, or other suitable options). For optimal stability, ensure the base is completely filled.
Securely close the filling port.
Insert the parasol pole into the base and tighten any securing mechanisms (if applicable to your parasol).

Compatibility:

This base is designed to slot seamlessly into Harbour Housewares Parasols. While it may accommodate parasol poles of similar diameters, compatibility with non-Harbour Housewares parasols is not guaranteed and should be verified by the user.

Care:

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
If using water as a filling, consider adding a small amount of non-toxic antifreeze in colder climates to prevent freezing and cracking, or drain the base before winter.
Store in a dry place during prolonged periods of non-use or harsh weather to prolong its lifespan.
Periodically check the filling port for secure closure.
