This blog covers our 3 simple tips to extend the lifespan of your Isabella awning so you can enjoy endless adventures with your Isabella. 

Tip One - Wash your awning frequently

Lots of problems can occur with leaking awnings and this usually comes down to people not maintaining their awning correctly. You should clean your awning frequently. Bugs, bird excrement and pollen all settle on the canvas degrading the fabric. This reduced the life-span of your awning if not kept clean. 

If you're planning to spend time near the sea then keeping your awning clean is important. This will stop build up of sea water salts. The salt in the wind binds moisture in the air breaking down the awning fabric. Not washing your Isabella awning regularly when holidaying near the beach will reduce the lifespan of your awning. 

Tip Two - No Aerosols inside your awning

The use of aerosoles inside your awning will reduce the lifespan of your Isabella awning. Switch to roll on deodorant, cream mosquito repellent and use hairspray outside of the realm of your awning to protect the canvas and its make up. 

Tip Three - Prevent creases on your window films

Isabella’s window films need to remain transparent but also pack away easily when you're on the move. There is no way to prevent window creasing completely but taking care when packing your awning away will definitely reduce your window film getting wounded. 

If your awning has been stored away for a long period consider taking the window panels out and hanging above a radiator to minimize creases and folds before use. If you have an awning with a reversible curtain feature make sure the small curtain holders are removed before packing to prevent damage.
