Palladia®
To enter the Corradi production cycle, materials must pass all tests required by the Company's Quality System.
The features listed below identify the peculiarities of the materials and therefore should not be understood as manufacturing defects, with the exception of the cases noted in the
non-conformity/defect
column.
Warnings:
For complaint and warranty terms, see the
Warranty
chapter.
Any change made to the product not expressly authorised by Corradi voids the warranty.
MATERIAL AND COMPONENT FEATURES
Product features
Non-conformity / defect
General
The framework is not watertight. During particularly violent storms with strong wind some water infiltration is possible.
Structures situated in urban environments are subjected to pollutants (smog, acid rain), smoke from chimneys, cooking
fumes, and inclemencies of the weather in general.
Therefore it is normal for the canvas and the framework to get dirty.
Frameworks and canvas are not self-cleaning.
The lateral tilting of the framework is not a sign of structural weakness, but rather is regarded as normal for the type of
framework. The framework was designed by qualified engineers using Eurocodes.
Canvas
Depending on the installation conditions it is possible for the canvas to get dirty (pollutants, smoke from chimneys, smog,
etc.).
In this case it may be necessary to clean the canvas more frequently, as explained in maintenance chapter.
The canvas is not immune from burning caused by cigarette butts, etc.
In particular situations it is possible for condensation to form in the inner part of the canvas.
To limit this condition keep the area well ventilated.
The appearance of mould in the canvas embossing is due to the presence of humidity on the canvas which favours the
growth of micro-organisms.
It is therefore necessary to clean the canvas at regular intervals, more frequently where necessary.
The presence of folds in the canvas immediately after the first installation may be due to packaging or how long the canvas
has remained packed.
It is necessary to keep the canvas in place for at least 10 days, and evaluate the quality of the product after this period of
time.
The presence of folds after 10 days is considered a defect.
ATTENTION
: For stacked stretched canvas with spacers
and 3 runners or 2 curved runners, the folds that occur
during stacking and when stacking is completed are
not to be considered defects, but rather features of the
stacking type.
Gutter
In case of heavy rainfall it is possible that the gutter is not able to drain the water.
This could cause water infiltration.
Channelling water to the ground is not controllable by Corradi but rather is the responsibility of the final customer.
The installation conditions, slopes and any drainage wells are the sole responsibility of the Retailer.
Runners
Some time after installation and if the periodic maintenance on the runners is not carried out, as indicated in the manual,
the runners and sliders may become noisy.
Noisy runners immediately after installation is a defect.
