![]() ![]() ![]() Operator errors can quickly create a circumstance that requires costly service and repairs, these are not covered by any warranty. This means the screens bottom bar can be rolled up too high causing it to jam in the screen housing if the stops have been removed, the screen can be let down too far such that it appears unsightly, and the screen can be rolled backwards on the reel which will create several issues that can jam the screen, cause the screen to come out of the tracks, and/or damage the screen. Further, the cranking mechanism in a manually operated screen has no settable limits. It is not cost effective over the life of the screen to use manual gears on a regular basis given the time and labor effort required to cycle several screens up and down and the high potential for operator caused damage. Manually operated screens are designed to be used where electricity is not available, or the screens will be used infrequently. These options will need to be detailed on the worksheet “Clear Vinyl Screen Diagram” which is available in the Technical Library of the Fenetex website. While Fenetex produces a standard configuration, this product often requires customization. At Noosa Screens and Curtains, we custom design. In addition to the above there are fabrication considerations for clear vinyl. External awnings as sun protection is a way of life under the harsh Australian sun. Discoloration is not covered under any warranty when the vinyl is not regularly maintained. All clear vinyl will eventually discolor, this will occur faster if the vinyl is not properly maintained. Operational issues or required service stemming from incorrect operation are not covered under any warranty. Should the screen come out of the track, stop screen movement immediately, raise the screen to the point where the screen goes back into the track and continue normal operation. It is important to observe the screens while operating them. This means that on very cold days the screens may need help to unroll because the clear vinyl will harden and shrink and on very hot days the screen may need help to unroll because the clear vinyl will soften and stick to itself both of these conditions can also cause the screens to come out of the track while lowering the screens. Fenetex has taken great care to design a system that works reliably but the nature of the clear vinyl material is that it is subject to shrinking in cold weather and sticking in hot weather. While daily up and down cycles are common, it should be noted that the environment where clear vinyl screens are installed may affect their performance. Clear vinyl screens are intended for applications where their use is primarily to close off a patio area so that it can be heated, cooled, and/or protected from inclement weather and environmental nuisances like pollen. ![]()
