Screen House
Product Code: 120051/120053/120051XL/ 120053DO
Instruction Version: 3
General Usage
• The screen house is an external product and designed to be used outside.
• Due to the changeable weather conditions it is recommended that you always use all of the storm straps and pegging points in order to
secure your screen house.
• It is also recommended that the screen house not be left unattended. Due to the nature of outdoor products along with the changeable
weather conditions and differing ground conditions, many unexpected circumstances can occur. If the screen house is left unattended it
could impact the performance of the screen house.
• If the screen house is going to be left unattended for an extended period of time (longer than a couple of days), we recommend to take the
screen house down.
• Waterproofing
: Whilst the roof on this screen house is waterproof the screen house itself is not water tight. The sides on the screen house
are not waterproof, even when using the optional side walls the screen house is not water tight. In the event of rain, some water may well
get into the screen house. Over time the waterproof coating of the material can deteriorate. This can be repaired by the use of a re-proofing
spray as listed in the maintenance section of the instructions.
• Weathering
: The waterproof nature of the screen house roof may be affected by a process called weathering. Weathering is a process
where the screen house may seem to leak when first used in the rain. When you sew a seam into any material you make a hole in the
material and then put a thread of cotton though this hole. Obviously this hole will leak water initially. The weathering process is around the
cotton thread. When the cotton thread gets wet it expands and fills the hole made when the material was sewn together. When the cotton
thread then drys is shrinks back, but never to the same size it was initially. This process happens a few times and eventually the thread stops
expanding and shrinking, but will have sealed the hole up. This whole process is called weathering and is the final process that makes your
screen house roof waterproof.
• Condensation
: This is a natural occurrence with any outdoor product. It is impossible to prevent completely and will occur depending upon
the weather conditions. The condensation will be worse if the optional side walls are used on the screen house which impacts the air flow in
the screen house.
