Windhager Cannes 10779 Rectangular Awning 4 x 5 m Sun Protection for Garden and Patio UV and Weather Resistant Red

Holiday feeling on your own terrace. Soothing shade on the terrace, balcony and in the garden is becoming increasingly important with increasing temperatures. A practical solution for this are awnings. They are quick and easy to attach compared to a pergola or similar cost-effective and can be removed at any time. Once the anchors are attached, a sun shade in a different colour can be stretched at any time - for a completely new look. The broken colours also have the advantage that unlike pure white in extreme sunlight they do not dazzle. Pleasant shade thanks to the sun shade also has the advantage that no precious space is lost as a footprint, just like a parasol. And in winter, the sun canopy can be easily removed and stowed away completely to save space. Awnings are not only suitable for patios, but also on the balcony, on the meadow, above the pool or the sand pit can be conjured up a great sun roof. Only requirement: the awning must be attached at 3 points. The coated polyester fabric is wind and water resistant and thus expands the living space in the warmer months through a cosy place outside. The UV protection 50+ stands for a very high level of protection against harmful UV radiation and corresponds to the sun cream protection factor - perfect for enjoying the beautiful weather in safety. The reinforced seams are particularly important for a sun sail, because they ensure a firm hold - and ensure that the sides do not tear even in wind. How do I find the right awning? To find the right awning for the area where you want to create shadows, various factors are important. 1. Sun level: this varies very strongly from the day and season. Therefore, observe the course of the sun beforehand and attach the sail so that the shade meets your wishes in different sun conditions. Here: the sail is better to take larger than the area to be shaded. 2. The size and shape of the awning should cover the area well - there are different sizes and shapes: triangular, square or rectangular. 3. Keep in mind that the awning should have a gradient of at least 15° and take the lowest installation as a starting point. APPLICATION: The mounting options of the awning are as diverse as the gardens and patios on which they provide shade. The basic prerequisite is that the awning is anchored at all corners. Anchoring elements such as sun sail pole, retaining eyelet on the wall, eyelet screw for posts etc. With the help of fasteners (rope, D-shackle, carabiner, tension anchor, expander rope, tension spring), the awning is hung in the anchoring element. It is important to consider the necessary slope of at least 15° from the beginning and to attach the first fixings high enough. The gradient of 15° (approx. 15 cm per metre) ensures that the rain does not collect on the sail, but can drain away. Rain accumulated on the sun sail not only makes the awning heavier and increases the total load on the attachment, but can also lead to deformation of the fabric, which can not be rectified by a firmer tensioning. With the correct attachment, awnings are very wind resistant. Nevertheless, it is recommended to remove the sail in storms, thunderstorms, very heavy rain or storm.
