Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I dry my parachute properly?
Ideally, place the umbrella open or half-open in a well-ventilated location . Important: Position the umbrella so that water can drip off and air can circulate – and that the wooden handle does not touch the ground or standing moisture .
Should the umbrella be dried fully open or half open?
Both are possible:
- Completely open : maximum air circulation, especially after heavy rain.
- Half-open : a good alternative when space is limited.
Where is the best place to put a wet umbrella?
Ideally, store the umbrella in a well-ventilated location. If using a stand, choose one that prevents moisture from accumulating. Avoid very damp rooms (e.g., basements/garages) and prolonged storage on hard floors.
How long should an umbrella take to dry?
Usually, overnight is sufficient. The fabric smooths itself out, and the umbrella is ready for use again the next day.
What happens if you don't dry an umbrella?
If a parasol remains damp for extended periods, it can damage the materials – especially natural materials like wood. Our tip: Always allow the parasol to dry thoroughly after use.
Can I put a wet umbrella in the cover?
Only store briefly (e.g., for the journey home) to prevent dripping. For longer periods: do not store in the cover – moisture will remain trapped.
Special note regarding the wooden handle – what do I need to pay attention to?
The handle is made of real wood. Wood reacts to the environment and moisture. Therefore, please avoid:
- permanent storage in damp rooms or in a damp car
- Drying with the handle on the ground (moisture/scratches)
