Yes, the polyester fabric has a polyurethane coating that makes it water-resistant, but it should not be left out during severe storms.
This specific guide refers to the Orange model.
Assembly is straightforward, but it does require drilling into your floor or wall for secure mounting.
It is designed to be mounted to solid walls or floors; mounting on a hollow railing may not provide sufficient stability.
You can keep it extended for as long as needed during the day, but it is recommended to retract it when not in use to prolong the life of the fabric.
Check if the mounting posts are perfectly level and that the handle is securely locked into the post bracket.
Ensure no debris or dirt has entered the housing; clean the housing opening and lightly lubricate the spring mechanism if necessary.
Installation requires basic hand tools to mount the side post and the cassette housing to your wall or floor. Ensure the surface is solid, such as concrete, brick, or pressure-treated wood, to support the tension of the spring mechanism. For maintenance, keep the fabric clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the polyurethane coating. During winter or periods of extreme weather, ensure the awning is fully retracted and secured in its housing to prevent damage from snow load or storm-force winds.
