Maintenance and Care Guide for Awnings
Investing in a high-quality sun protection system is the first step to transforming your home or business into a space of comfort. At CADET, we select materials with a 5-year warranty certificate to ensure your investment is long-lasting. However, basic maintenance is key to extending the service life of mechanisms and technical fabrics.
Below, we offer you the best advice for caring for your awning or pergola.
Care of Technical Fabrics
The fabrics selected by CADET are high technology and require gentle treatment to preserve their properties.
- Regular cleaning: Remove accumulated dust with a vacuum cleaner or a soft-bristle brush.
- Washing: Use only warm water and a neutral soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or pressure washers that may damage the texture of the technical fabric.
- Drying: Never retract the awning if the fabric is wet. If caught by rain, wait until it is completely dry before rolling it up to prevent mold formation.
- Microperforated Fabrics: In the case of shading systems, remember that these fabrics are permeable to prevent water pooling, but must still be kept free of organic debris (leaves, branches).
