Repair and Maintenance

Occasionally, your Yomes will need some repair and maintenance.  Below you will find some products that we recommend for the most common maintenance and repair tasks.

Cleaner:

The Sidewall Fabric on the Yome will occasionally need to be cleaned due to accidental stains, or possibly due to mildew if your Yome is set up in a humid environment. This is our recommended product for cleaning the Sidewall Fabric.  Simply follow the instructions on the container, and your Yome will be revitalized.

Vent Covers:

PolyCarbonate:

The Roof Vent on your Yome is the most exposed element, and it will take a beating from the elements. Whether is damage from the sun over a long period of time, or that time someone forgot to close the vent before a summer thunderstorm, we understand that these things happen. Here are a couple of recommendations for replacement vent covers. The Polycarbonate Version has slightly better UV resistant properties.

Fabric Repairs:

Mend Tears:

Sail Repair Kit:

If the unforeseen should happen, and you need to repair the Sidewall Fabric of your Yome, here are a couple of suggested items that can make this process smoother. As a bonus, they don’t involve a needle and thread.

For the SunForger Sidewalls (Standard) we recommend “Tear Mender,” which allows you to glue a fabric patch on to the Sidewall.

The SunGlow Sidewalls (Upgraded) have a synthetic coating that requires a different glue the “Sail Repair Tape” has an appropriate adhesive for the synthetic coating.
