What does UV-protective mean?

UV-protective means the material is designed to resist damage and degradation from ultraviolet rays from the sun, helping to prolong its lifespan and prevent excessive fading.

Troubleshooting

Screen is flapping excessively in the wind.

Ensure the screen is pulled taut during installation and that all eyelets are securely fastened. Consider adding additional fastening points if necessary.

Water is pooling on the screen.

While water-resistant, the screen is not designed to hold standing water. Ensure it is installed with a slight slope to allow water to run off.

Eyelets are difficult to thread the rope through.

Try using a thin, pointed object to clear any debris from the eyelet holes. Dampening the rope slightly can also help it slide through more easily.

Screen appears to be fading.

While UV-protective, prolonged exposure to intense sunlight can cause fading over time. This is normal wear and may be mitigated by repositioning the screen if possible, or by ensuring it is retracted during extreme weather.
