Maintenance and Care Guide
Routine care keeps your awning performing at its best. Clean the fabric seasonally with mild soap and water—never bleach or use harsh chemicals. Allow it to dry fully before retracting to prevent mold and mildew. Inspect the mounting hardware for signs of rust or loosening, especially after heavy storms. Lubricate moving parts annually and test motorized functions, remotes, and sensors in spring and fall. Avoid operating the awning during high winds or storms, and retract it during freezing conditions.

If you notice unusual noise, resistance, or sagging, it may be time for a professional evaluation. Paul Construction in Skippack, PA, offers seasonal tune-ups and repair services to help you protect your investment year-round.
