Frequently Asked Questions In this section you can find answers to frequently asked questions, however, it is the professionals closest to your area who will truly be able to advise you in a more efficient way on particular questions that directly affect you. Do not hesitate to ask your questions. Q: Can I put the awning I want? A: Yes, but if you live in a Community of Owners in which a specific fabric model has been chosen, you will have to comply with this rule. Q: Do I need any kind of permission to put my awning? A: Possibly not, but if your installation involves any alteration in urban aesthetics or is within a historic center, it is advisable to check with your town hall. Q: Is the awning fabric strong? A: The acrylic fabric used to make the awning is designed to withstand extreme conditions for many years, so much so that under normal conditions it is not unusual to find awnings older than 15 years and both the canvas and the system are perfectly of extension. Q: Is the fabric waterproof? A: Standard acrylic tarpaulin is not totally waterproof, but it withstands light rain perfectly. There are also fabrics specially treated for their impermeability, but its use is only advisable if they have a sufficient slope to drain and that pockets do not form on the awning, the main danger of water on the awning is its weight. Q: Will the fabric rot if I pick it up wet? A: The treatment given to the fabric prevents it from rotting, however atmospheric dust, bird feces and other elements of pollution can generate fungi on its surface, disfiguring it. Spread it out after rain and let it dry completely before picking it up. Q: Can awnings withstand the wind? A: The wind is unpredictable, it can change intensity and direction quickly. Awnings should not be open in extreme conditions. Check with your awning for the wind resistance rating of your awning and optionally install them with active protection systems. Q: Can my awning burn? A: Among the multiple treatments applied to the fabrics is the fire retardant, depending on the fabric used it has a cataloging (M1, M2?), This prevents the fire from spreading through the fabric. We can see this in practice when they throw a cigarette on the canvas, we will observe the burn that the cigarette produces (in the worst case) but it will not light on the rest of the awning. Q: Can I automate my awnings? A: A motorized awning is used up to four times more than a manual one, the ease of pressing a button and our awning to obey our command effortlessly. If, as a complement, we install wind and sun sensor systems, you will be protected at all times, ensuring comfort and precise safety at all times. Comprehensive home automation systems can create random scenarios simulating human presence and deter potential thieves. Q: What are semi-cassette and cassette awnings? A: The semi-cassettes are systems that provide total protection to the canvas once they are collected and the chests protect the entire awning system in an integral way, covering the canvas and arms. Both systems are the most effective means of providing up to 3 times the durability of your sun protection system. Q: Could I install my awning? R: Sin lugar a dudas, si tiene las herramientas adecuadas.
