Taurus

FAQs
Is Taurus really side-post?
Yes. Taurus uses an offset mast to keep the space below the canopy open.
What base should I use?
Use a rated base, in-ground anchor, or deck mount sized for the umbrella and local wind.
How do I manage wind?
Close the umbrella in strong or shifting winds and follow site policies.
How do I clean the canopy?
Use water and mild soap. Let it dry fully before closing or storage.
