Anyone who owns a canvas awning will know that it serves as great protection from any natural element, be it wind, rain, or sun. No matter which type you use, it certainly serves its purpose in keeping the space you choose shaded. However, are you taking care of them yourself? Remember that these things are just as prone to damage as others, and that you will have to take certain precautions to ensure that these products stay in top quality for several years to make them a really good investment that is worth your time, effort, and money. These things are created from synthetic fabrics that are of the best quality so they should really last a long time - however, it will wear down faster if you don't know how to take proper care of it.
Cleaning these products is probably the most obvious thing to come to mind. As these are made of special fabrics, be gentle in washing them - cleanse them with products that are only water-repellant or anti-mildew, as these awnings are meant to protect you from these elements. Taking away their immunity is as good as taking away the very purpose why they created - and then they will not be that much help to you in the future. You don't have to clean them everyday, but you do have to clean them every time you use them, or on a regular basis, as leaving them as they are after use will allow dirt and other specimen to accumulate, allowing the quality and durability of your awning to deteriorate. If you really want to make sure that your canvas awning is squeaky-clean, you can purchase special disinfectants that will ensure that there is no trace of dirt left on them after washing.
A huge no-no when you own one of these products is putting them in the near vicinity of trees or shrubs. These contain acidic substances that may damage your awning, which will then be irreparable. Also, take note that your warranty will not be considered valid if this is the reason behind the damage. As an owner, you are responsible for the proper care of your awning, and if you don't take precautions as to where you place it, then you reap the consequences. So all awning owners reading this - take heed!
