Depending on the model and the selected awning fabric, pergola awnings are waterproof. If you choose the fabric perla FR, the pergola is waterproof. In addition, the rain run-off is favored by rain gutters. Through the front gutters the rainwater is led from the awning cover through the support post to the ground. This prevents the water from collecting on the fabric cover. Depending on the model, the support posts can be lowered to ensure optimized water drainage at all times.
