Installation - The Sola
Because the Sola is designed to handle greater than normal wind
loads, correct installation is essential. A portable base option
is available but not recommended for the Sola.

The 2 15/16" diameter mast fits directly onto the Spigot as
a sleeve. The Spigot can be bolted directly into a concrete patio
or timber deck if the Sola is not to be seasonally stored.
We strongly recommend you purchase a Heavyweight Base Plate for
the Sola, which will provide additional strength and stability
for this larger shademaker. The round Heavyweight Base Plate is
used to attach the Sola to a timber deck or concrete patio. It is
galvanized and powder coated steel so it will not rust. The
powder coating is charcoal grey to match the Standard Spigot. The
diameter of the Heavyweight Base Plate is 400mm (approx.
16") and 1/4" thick. The Heavyweight Base Plate is
first bolted to concrete or timber using the special bolts
included with your Sola. The Standard Spigot is then screwed into
the Heavyweight Base Plate. If you want to remove your Sola for
seasonal storage, you simply undo the four screws and remove the
Spigot from the Base Plate, leaving an unobtrusive plate in your
deck or patio.
If you intend to install your Sola into anything other than a
concrete patio or timber deck you may need to purchase an
optional Standard In Ground Fitting. Please feel free to contact
us to determine the best installation option for your particular
situation. Made of galvanized steel, this Standard In Ground
Fitting is extremely strong and will not rust. The diameter of
the plate is 215mm (approximately 9"). The height is 500m
(approximately 19 1/2 "). Installing an In Ground Fitting
requires digging a suitable-sized hole, pouring concrete and
placing the In Ground Fitting into the concrete. The Spigot is
then bolted onto the In Ground Fitting.
