Mine came without instructions and I pulled the plastic off now I don't know which side is the UV side. Can you tell which side is the UV side? Mine was a bitch to assemble the two plastic sheets together, the slots in the center section were narrow and I had to use a butter knife to feed them into the slots. Maybe because it's cool in here? Again: how can you tell the UV side when the plastic has been pealed off?

Yeah you need screws for cement/ brick etc. or the ones that come with it. But then you’re drilling big holes for them. So need specialty bit for that.

Buy better quality concrete sleeve anchors to attach to brick use a 3/8 drill bit. Apply clear caulk also around the edge of the awning to prevent water falling inside the awning. Please vacuum out the drill holes after drilling or the anchors will not sit flush.
