Analysis of the causes of rain leakage of sun terrace awning canopy

Many customers in the choice of awning canopy for balcony terrace patio, often worry about the installation of good rain leakage. In life we can see that the canopy is also very widely used in every city home.

For example, industrial plants, schools, shopping malls and other public places, sun terrace awning canopy as the name implies is a place to shade from the sun and rain. Therefore, it is important to have good shading and rainproof performance. If the installed canopy leaks, what should we do? Let’s analyze it.

In general, there are two main reasons for rain canopy leaks:

One; caused by human factors;

Master installation is not in place, the plate around the seal is not stuck tight, the need to play neutral structural adhesive place did not play glue, installation technology is not skilled; canopy leakage in the design of unreasonable, construction and installation is not standardized, the construction personnel operation careless.

Unreasonable design is mainly manifested in: the surface parcel is too large or the slope is too slow, the water flow is too slow, causing waterlogging, the diameter of the downpipe is not satisfied, the panel is not properly selected, the sealing edge and the gutter joints are unreasonably designed;

In the construction and installation, improper seam treatment, inadvertent connection, insufficient waterproof material, slack sealant, screws installation is not careful, will lead to cracks and leaks in the canopy, which is the most factors of rain leakage in the canopy.

Chongqing Steady Gu canopy manufacturing Co., Ltd. has a professional installation team, the master is very rich experience, full-time specializing in the field of installation. Our master will adjust to match the actual situation on site, more than ten years of installation experience so far there is not a single rain canopy leaking situation.

Second; the material itself caused by the characteristics of the material.

There are also hidden dangers of leakage caused by the characteristics of the material, such as the large thermal conductivity of the metal plate itself. When the external temperature changes, due to the temperature difference changes, the material shrinkage and deformation due to temperature changes, resulting in a larger interface displacement, resulting in leakage potential problems. In the steel structure system, as the structure itself is subject to external forces such as temperature change, wind load, snow load, etc., it is easy to produce elastic deformation, resulting in displacement of the connection parts and the existence of potential water leakage problems.

To sum up, if the installation is not in place of the leakage, we can find out the place of leakage and look for the reason, if it is the seal off can use the card plate to tighten the seal, if it is the problem of gluing, we can make up some neutral structural adhesive, it can solve the problem. If it is the problem of the material itself, you can consider the replacement.

At present, the canopy produced by StableAwning is made of all aluminum alloy frame and PC (polycarbonate) resistant board as the raw material of the canopy. The canopy board is flexible, impact resistant, high and low temperature resistant, and will not expand and contract because of the weather temperature change, which is especially durable and will not have the situation of rain leakage.
