Maintenance

Regular maintenance will extend the life of your GUNNÖN Gazebo.

• Cleaning: Clean the fabric canopy with a mild soap solution and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storage. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Frame Care: Inspect the metal frame periodically for any signs of rust or damage. Clean with a damp cloth. If necessary, touch up any scratches with rust-inhibiting paint.
• Fasteners: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Retighten as needed.
• Seasonal Storage: During periods of strong winds, heavy rain, or snow, it is recommended to remove the canopy to prevent damage. For long-term storage, disassemble the gazebo and store all components in a dry, protected area.
