Tips To Protect Your Market Umbrellas

Market umbrellas are an ideal way to enjoy a day in the sun. These umbrellas help to keep you cool and protect you from the sun's harmful UV rays. Typically, these outdoor umbrellas are used in commercial market places, cafes, outdoor restaurants and pool sides. They are available in various sizes, shapes, colors, materials and styles to suit your need. They have three essential components, a stand, a canopy and a pole. The canopy is supported by a metal or wood stand.

The umbrellas made of wood are very elegant. They are available in mahogany, hardwood and teak. However, the traditional wooden umbrellas have been replaced by stylish, lightweight, easy to carry and durable, metal umbrellas. The aluminum umbrellas are rust resistant and come with an electronic push button for easy use.

How to Take Care of Your Market Umbrellas

Your umbrella can easily get damaged through prolonged exposure to the wind, rain, dust and sun. It is very important to properly clean, store and take care of your umbrella, to extend its life. Here are few to tips for protecting such umbrellas:

Close Your Umbrella

It is advisable to keep your umbrella closed, when it is not being used. Also, shut your umbrella when there is a strong gust of wind. The ribs and poles of your umbrella can be easily broken or bent when exposed to strong winds.

Use the Tie

Ties are an important feature that comes along with these umbrellas. Just shutting your umbrella is not enough to avoid damage. A strong wind can damage even a closed umbrella. Therefore, it is important that you tie it up after closing it.

Umbrella Cover

A protective umbrella cover is another important protection. The cover will protect it from wind, rain, dust, mold, mildew and sun. An umbrella cover is very cheap. You can get one by just spending a few dollars. However, in case your umbrella gets wet, place a cover on it only after it completely dries.

Cleaning Your Umbrella

Clean your market umbrella with a damp cloth to remove dust or dirt accumulated on it. Use soapy water to get rid of tougher soiling and then wipe it with a clean cloth. Cleaning your umbrella with abrasive materials, chemicals or harsh cleansing agents can cause costly damage to it. Keep your umbrella in a dry place in the winters, to protect it from snow and ice.

Market Umbrella Beach Q&A

Best holiday destination if I want...?

...no screaming kids/families, no mopeds/motor bikes, no mosquitos, no time-share touts, no cockroaches, no pick-pockets, no flights over 12 hours...
BUT I DO WANT... unspoilt beaches, cocktails with umbrellas sticking out, good vegetarian food, toilets you can flush paper down, markets, shops, historic buildings, good photo opportunities and the locals speak English. Any thoughts on where I should go???

Gozo is beautiful and unspoilt,great beaches and historical monuments and you can catch the ferry over to Malta in 20mins for great shopping and loads of stuff to do if you feel like it- and they speak English
