Common Questions
- Polyethylene vs. nylon—which is better?
- Nylon absorbs water, which encourages mold and mildew. Polyethylene doesn’t absorb water, won’t rot, and loses very little tensile strength over time. Polyethylene should last 7–10 years. Nets installed in areas with low UV radiation will last even longer. Beware of nylon look-a-likes—they aren’t worth the trouble!
- Why is my net a different size than advertised?
- It’s possible to overstretch Aerial Protection Netting. This results in an irregular or elongated net. When properly installed, the weave should have a uniform square pattern, not a diamond pattern. Over tightening will shorten the lifespan of the netting.
