Some of the safety and usage measures you may wish to consider include:

-snow load ratings vary by geographical location. If heavy or wet snowfall occurs, it is advisable to sweep
the snow off the roof(s).
-if the product is elevated, any structural and building code requirements are solely the customer's
responsibility, and should be abided by.
-in high or gusty wind conditions it is advisable to keep the structure securely grounded.
-have a regular maintenance plan to ensure screws, doors, windows and parts are tight.
