Taped seams are the difference between a cover and a tarp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVented, so it doesn't sweat.\u003c\/strong\u003e Mesh vents let trapped moisture escape.

Frost heave, ice, road salt and UV all attack outdoor furniture, and covered furniture comes out looking like it did in September.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBetween weekends at the cottage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf nobody's there for five days, everything gets rained on. Ten minutes of covering on Sunday means dry seating on Friday.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePollen, sap and bird season\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnder a tree, a cover saves more scrubbing in spring than it does damage in winter. Sap in particular does not come out of outdoor fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions people ask before buying\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I know it'll fit my set?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure your furniture — width, depth and height at the tallest point — before ordering, and pick the size that's slightly larger. A cover that's too tight strains the seams; slightly loose with the straps cinched is correct.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill snow load damage it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeavy wet snow sitting on a flat span is the main stressor. Put something under the cover to create a peak — a patio chair, a bucket on the table — so snow and water shed off instead of pooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I cover cushions or bring them in?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBring them in. A cover protects frames and hard surfaces well; fabric cushions in an unheated space over a Canadian winter will still take on moisture. Store cushions dry and indoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eShips from our fulfillment partner.
