Relaxing in your gazebo surrounded by the beauty of nature doesn’t mean that you’ll have to suffer mosquito and insect bites. In fact, if you have an open gazebo enclosing a hot tub or spa, it is very important to keep dirt and insects out.
There are various types of gazebo screens available – all aimed at making your sojourn at the gazebo more comfortable and restful. While keeping insects out is one of the main reasons for putting up a screen around your gazebo, there are other types of screens available as well.
Insect screens
Insect screens serve an important function by keeping harmful mosquitoes and other insects out of your gazebo. Generally, insect screens are attached to the vertical supports of your gazebo with zippers or Velcro. The screen also stays fastened to your gazebo’s top rail with Velcro to form a protective mesh all around your gazebo.
The entryway through the screen has a zipper which you can fasten once you are inside the gazebo. To make sure the screen doesn’t flap open in the wind, the bottom of the insect screen is weighted at the bottom. There’s nothing like an insect screen to make sure you have a comfortable time relaxing in your gazebo.
Sun screens
If your open gazebo doesn’t have lattice sides or doesn’t support vines and climbing plants, it might get too hot for comfort for you on a sunny day. When you’re faced with such a problem, adding sun screens would make your gazebo experience far more comfortable and relaxing.
Gazebo sun screens are made of mesh, sun-resistant fabric that can eliminate over 90% of the sun’s ultra-violet rays. Generally, gazebo sun screens come in panels which can be fastened to the gazebo poles with Velcro.
Privacy screens
If your gazebo houses a hot tub, you might want additional privacy. Made from canopy-fabric, privacy panels provide you complete privacy when you attach the panels to your gazebo supports with Velcro fasteners.
Clear wind screens
Sometimes, too much wind can be a nuisance. When you want to savor a quiet dinner or soak in a hot tub in your gazebo, strong winds may take the fun out of your activities. In such situations, gazebo wind screens are extremely convenient.
These gazebo screens are made of thick, clear plastic that you can fasten to your gazebo rails with Velcro fasteners. While the screens keep strong winds out, the clear plastic lets you enjoy the sights of your garden.
