RESIDENTIAL WARRANTY
WIND DAMAGE
Wind ratings do not form part of, nor fall under, any Frankford Umbrellas warranties. Wind ratings are intended as a guide to the relative strength of the umbrellas only and tested at their optimal positions. Umbrellas with any degree of tilt added should not follow any wind ratings. Wind can be extremely variable, depending on the surroundings, elevation, angle of gusts, etc. In any high-wind or sudden extreme weather conditions, all umbrellas should be closed and secured immediately regardless of size, weight or base weight, and should never be left unattended in the open position. This will reduce the risk of damage to your umbrella, furniture, and property.
10-YR WARRANTY
Frankford offers 9 oz. marine-grade solution dyed acrylic fabric from several mills, including Sunbrella®, Outdura, and Recasens®. All marine-grade acrylic fabrics we use carry a warranty of 10 years from the original date of purchase. All upholstery-grade fabrics we use carry a warranty of 5 years from the original date of purchase. The warranty protects against the loss of characteristics, rot, mildew, and colorfastness typical in normal atmospheric conditions. The product must be properly installed, maintained, and under normal use and environment. This warranty does not cover damage caused by contact with foreign objects, abuse, negligence, vandalism, burns of any kind, improper cleaning techniques, normal wear, perforations, weather soiling, environmental pollution stains, natural disasters, or acts of nature. Damage caused by the storage method or location used by clients is not covered.
DISCLAIMER
When opening and closing the umbrella, the user must be sure all fabric is pulled away from the ribs to prevent unnecessary rubbing of the fabric against the frame or hardware. This could result in premature wearing or holes in the fabric. Damage of this nature is not covered under warranty. To ensure our product’s longevity, we recommend closing your umbrella and securing it with a tie band in high winds. In addition, be sure the fabric is pulled away from the ribs as outlined above. High winds will cause the umbrella fabric to rub together, causing friction, which can result in premature thinning of the fabric, discoloration, and possible pin holes over extended use. We strongly suggest the use of a protective cover or safely storing the umbrella until the winds and harsh weather subside. Damage of this nature is not covered under warranty. The warranty, if applicable, does not cover labor, frames, systems, and installation supplied by the Dealer or reseller. Replacement fabric canopy is covered for the time remaining in the original warranty and does not activate a new 10-year or 5-year warranty.

GALVANIZED G-PLATE BASE DISCLAIMER
Galvanized steel will show unavoidable imperfections due to the finishing process and therefore must be accepted in the condition in which it is received.

SEASIDE AND INDOOR/OUTDOOR POOL USE
Seaside and indoor/outdoor pool use, salt, and chlorides can accumulate on the powder coat finishes and on raw material finishes such as Matte Silver (MS Umbrella specific) and Polished Silver Anodized (SR), leading to premature finish failure. Failure or neglect to make needed cleanings on powder coat finishes may cause paint to blister, flake, or bubble, and such failure will void the limited warranty. Failure to maintain umbrella and base finishes may cause aluminum and metals to pit, oxidize or corrode. Such failure will void all warranties.
