Great canopy care starts with the correct assembly of the material over the frame. Not only will you need to assemble the canopy once you've first purchased your gazebo, you'll also need to remove and reassemble the canopy to properly clean the fabric, for repair work or, crucially, to store it away over the winter months.
Avoid unnecessary stretching and tears by taking the time to carefully put on the canopy. To put up a gazebo canopy, make sure the frame has first been partially extended and then carefully place the material over, aligning three of the four corners. You can then fully extend the frame, lock the slider bracket into place and, finally, pull over the remaining corner of the canopy.
Make some final adjustments by pulling down the canopy over the frame until it's secure on all sides.

Tent Top - How do I keep myself and my furniture dry on a rainy day?

1. Our canopies are water repellent, but it's still helpful to add an additional waterproofing solution to your canopy. This is because the original water repellent coating may lose its effect due to weather elements. Please be sure to follow the instructions on the water repellent spray product carefully and precisely. Spray a small, inconspicuous test area first to ensure there are no problems. Also, be certain that the canopy fabric is completely dry before you pack your tent top away.
If you have a colored tent top, please note that spraying an additional water repellent solution may slightly alter the color of the fabric.
2. Over time, moisture, heat, and humidity can break down the original sealant. If you'd like, consider using a silicone seam sealer to double seal the seam.

Gazebos are usually single tier or double-tiered. A single tier frame canopy looks like a pyramid. A double tiered frame has another top tier structure to accommodate another, smaller canopy top and a vent is optional between them as well.

Other canopies attach by a corner pocket design, where the canopy attaches to poles which extend past the frame of the gazebo. Some attach by hooks into holes on the frame.

How do I get rid of mold on my canopy gazebo?

Our gazebo canopies are made from polyamide (PA) coated polyester. The PA coating makes the material of our canopy resists mildew better than others. However, mold and mildew thrive in damp and humid conditions. Once they start to grow, this can result in the material deteriorating, or even cracking and tearing outright. Dip a soft porous sponge or broom into the soapy water and brush it onto the canopy. If ok, it would be better to use solution of household mild detergent and cold water. A preferred cleaner should be safe for home anti-bacterial use and bleach-free. Do not use bleach for cleaning, because the bleach makes the fabric colour and printing fade. Apply to fabric and allow to soak for up to 15 minutes. Then scrub gently with the broom to remove the mildew and stain build up. For stubborn areas, moisten a sponge with the soapy water and scrub carefully. After cleaning, rinse the cover completely to remove all of the soap residues with a garden hose.
