Can this screen be used in strong winds?

Troubleshooting
Screen is not staying taut
Ensure the PE rope is tied securely to strong anchor points. Re-tension the rope and check for any looseness in the knots or attachment points.
Water pooling on the screen surface
Adjust the angle of attachment to encourage water runoff. Ensure there are no sagging areas where water can collect. Check that the rope is evenly tensioned.
Minor dirt or mildew spots
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely.
Eyelets seem loose
Inspect the eyelets for damage. If they appear to be pulling away from the fabric, consider reinforcing the area or contacting customer support.
