Durability

Easy maintenance
For the aluminum hardtop gazebo, you need to clean it with water once every season while the wooden type needs to be maintained with specific detergent once a month. This means you take less money and time to maintain an aluminum hardtop gazebo.

The snow load is 2500 lbs and the wind load is 40 mph. Its frame is made of alloyed aluminum and the roof is made of galvanized steel. As a result, it is stable enough in most weather conditions.
Does it keep ventilative if there is a small fire pit?
Yes. Our hardtop gazebo is designed with a double roof to ventilate the space and keep the air fresh. If you want to get warm with a small fire pit, you can also roll out the curtain and zip up the netting to keep air circulating and reduce the impact of wind at the same time.
