Maintenance Tips

• Wipe down the frame and roof panels regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap + water to remove dust and debris; avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners on polycarbonate or powder‑coated metal.

• Clear gutters, roof, and drainage areas of leaves, dirt, snow, and buildup to ensure proper water runoff and reduce structural stress.

• Inspect and tighten fasteners periodically so the aluminum and galvanized steel frame stays secure and stable.

• Ensure solid anchoring on a leveled base (like concrete or pavers) for best stability, especially in strong wind or snow.

• Check panels after severe weather for cracks or looseness and re‑secure as needed to maintain protection.
