If you suspect yourawning is leaking it is almost certainly condensation. Laying a waterproofgroundsheet (not a breathable carpet) throughout the whole awning will helpand condensation can also be improved by ensuring adequate ventilation. Onsome awnings we offer an optional roof lining that can also help preventcondensation and catch any drips of condensation that fall from the roof.The awning material has a waterproof PU coating over its entire surface andthe main seams of your awning have been factory taped to help preventleakage. Depending upon your expectations, it may be necessary to treat theremaining seams with a seam sealant. Seams treated with seam sealantcannot leak. Seam sealant should also be applied to areas where the taping isdamaged or has peeled away through wear and tear. It can also be applied toareas where a leak may have developed. Seam sealant is available from yourdealer.The awning beading is sewn to the awning with a special waterproof sewingthread. This thread swells when wet to fill the needle holes but thread needsto become wet several times before it is totally effective. This process is knownas ‘weathering’ and it may take several soakings for the weathering to be fullyeffective. This area can also be treated with seam sealant.WELCOMEThank you for purchasing your Kampa awning.
