FAQs
Is this shade sail waterproof? A: This is a breathable mesh sail. It allows air and water to pass through. This is essential for preventing the sail from becoming a "sail" in the wind or collapsing under the weight of heavy rain. For a 100% waterproof version, please check our waterproof sails collection.
Measure from attachment point to attachment point. You should subtract 1 to 1.5 feet from each side to allow space for the hardware (turnbuckles and snap hooks) and to ensure proper tension.
While it is heavy-duty, we recommend taking the sail down during the winter in regions with heavy snowfall. The mesh is not designed to support the weight of accumulated snow.
