In conditions of heavy snowfall, it is recommended to open the louvered roof to prevent snow buildup and potential damage to the structure.

6. Maintenance
6.1 Gutter System
The pergola features an efficient built-in gutter system. Rainwater is channeled through concealed gutters within the frame and discreetly discharged through notches at the base of each post. Regularly check and clear the gutter system of any debris to ensure proper drainage and prevent water accumulation.

6.2 General Cleaning
Clean the aluminum frame and louvers with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the powder-coated finish. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
7. Troubleshooting
- Louvers not adjusting smoothly: Check for any obstructions in the louver mechanism or track. Ensure the joystick control is properly engaged.
- Water pooling on roof: Verify that the louvers are fully closed if rain protection is desired. Inspect the gutter system for blockages and clear any debris.
- Pergola instability: Ensure all bolts and screws are tightened according to the assembly instructions. Re-check the anchoring to the ground.
