Fiamma Caravan Awning Tips for All Year Round Use

Fiamma Caravan Awning

In the world of caravanning, Fiamma awnings have earned a reputation for being really durable and fit enough to be used all year round. The company produces some of the finest caravan awnings in the market they have carved a niche for themselves with their range of top notch awning products.

However, these awnings won’t deliver quality performance if they are not maintained properly. It is not rocket science. You just need to know what you need to check and how you need to performance basic maintenance. That’s all there is to it.

Check out these simple tips to keep your Fiamma awning working perfectly throughout the year.

Roll Away the Awning at Night

You should always roll up the awning at night when it is not in use or when you are away from the vehicle. This is especially important for the F45ti model without the privacy enclosure and the zip model without the zip enclosure. The reason for rolling it up when not in use is that a sudden gust of strong wind can damage the awning fabric. This will rid you of the comfort that you are supposed to get from the awning.

Put a Tie-Down Strap Over the Awning

Make sure that you always use tie down straps when using awnings. By tying it down, you can make the most out of awnings that do not have enclosures. In this case, you need to put the strap over the arms by the front lead bar. Don’t let it go under the canvas though. This will prevent the canvas from being stretched beyond its limit. For awnings with enclosures, place the straps over the canvas but near the front lead bar.

Don’t Use the Curved Tension Rafter When the Sun is Out

The curved tension rafter is designed to prevent rainwater from accumulating on the canvas causing the material to stretch. Never use it when the sun is out as the heat will cause the canvas to stretch. Keep the rafter inside when not in use.

Use Tension and Magic Rafters to Strengthen Your Awning

Tension and magic rafters are great for strengthen your Fiamma awning and ensuring longer periods of quality usage. These accessories prevent the canvas from stretching and getting damaged due to the accumulated water.

Don’t Leave the Awnings Out in Bad Weather

The Fiamma caravan awnings may be strong and really durable, but that does not mean you should leave it out in the open, especially in bad weather. These awnings need to be managed carefully just like any other awning.

If you still have doubts about your specific Fiamma awning, then get in touch with your caravan awning manufacturer and get help with understanding the specific maintenance requirements and precautions that need to be taken while using the awning.
