How to Choose the Right Hammocks and Swings
1. Choose the right sized hammocks: Make sure you have adequate space to install the hammocks in your home. Freestanding units usually require 3.5x2 m clearance for comfortable installation while ceiling mounts need 60 cm perimeter clearance for safe arc movement
Additionally make sure that you have the right sized beams or concrete anchoring points for safe installation.
2. Choose the right materials: Cotton offers superior breathability but requires seasonal treatment against mildew; hemp provides 3x greater tensile strength. Alternatively, PE rattan withstands 98% UV radiation without fading, while ripstop nylon resists abrasion over long periods. If you go for a wooden one, Cedar contains natural thujaplicins preventing fungal decay. You can also get thermally-modified ash that increases stability in humidity swings
The swings and hammocks made from stainless steel hardware resist salt corrosion and a layer of powder-coating ensures chip resistance
3. Consider your climatic conditions
If you live in high rain regions go for fabrics with a high hydrostatic head rating. Hammocks with elevated drainage grommets help to prevent water pooling. If the hammock is going to be exposed to intense sunlight choose options with UV-inhibited materials and high reflectivity.
For people living in coastal environments hammocks made from salt-neutralizing anodized aluminum components are the best options.
