Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Lifetime Poolside Portable Basketball Hoop, regular maintenance is recommended.

• Rust-Resistant Hardware: All stainless and powder-coated steel hardware contributes to the hoop's rust resistance. Periodically inspect all metal components for any signs of wear or corrosion. Clean with a mild soap and water solution if needed.
• UV-Protected Graphics: The backboard graphics are designed to be fade-resistant. To maintain their appearance, avoid using abrasive cleaners.
• All-Weather Net: The nylon net is built to withstand various weather conditions. If the net becomes excessively dirty or damaged, it can be replaced.
