FAQ’s

Crank-operated parasols with tilt features are easiest to manage and adjust without hassle.

They still charge on overcast days, but shorter daylight hours mean reduced run time.

Ideally, 20-25kg for stability. Windy areas may require more weight.

Yes, but we recommend storage during prolonged wet weather to extend their life.

1. Pick your spot: Go for flat, open space (patios and decks are perfect).

3. Angle the shade: Adjust tilt for morning or afternoon sun.
4. Charge & test: Place solar products in full sun for at least 48 hours.
5. Seasonal storage: Collapse parasols in wind, clean before winter, and store covered.
