CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the polycarbonate on your awning can be achieved with a simple
solution of mild soap and water (1 part soap to 2 parts water) and a standard
garden hose with a pressure nozzle to remove any accumulated dust, dirt, or
debris. A specialty polycarbonate cleaner can be used, however, we recommend
testing a small section before proceeding to entire polycarbonate. Never use
acetone, abrasive cleaners, or other detergents to clean the awning.
Advaning recommends an annual inspection of the screw connections and seal
condition. Tighten and replace parts or reapply silicone as needed. All parts can
be easily obtained from Advaning should there ever be a need for replacement.
Although the awning is made to handle signicant loads, we recommend clearing
accumulated and packed snow whenever possible. A long handled squeegee
can be used to assist with removing excess snow. Please visit www.advaning.com
for full independent weight capacity test results.
