How big is the Garden Igloo?
Gardenigloo has a diameter of 11′ 9″. Max height is 7' 2'. Base area is 107 ft².
What Material is the Garden Igloo made of?
The Gardenigloo structure is made of non-corrosive, 100 % recyclable PVC and PA6 materials. The transparent cover of Gardenigloo is made of non-toxic , soft, transparent, robust 300mic, UV resisted, -4F cold crack resisted, NPFA 701 - ASTM E84 Fire Retardant PVC.
The Gardenigloo Zipper and deployment in cold temperatures
The Gardenigloo zipper is the main tool used to seal the Gardenigloo’s entrance.
Although the Gardenigloo is designed to withstand cold temperatures, the zipper must be maintained properly as advised to avoid any unexpected complications.
We advise all Gardenigloo owners to use their Gardenigloo’s responsibly and conduct maintenance on their zippers in the winter cold.
Due to condensation, rainfall, or snow melting - water may enter in between the teeth of the zipper and zipper line.
In cold temperatures, these water particles may freeze overnight or eventually in the day - thus jamming the zipper.
In order to avoid jamming/stuck zipper issues, we advise you to use a water resistant lubricant (e.g. WD-40, Star Brite 089102 Snap and Zipper Lubricant, ...) to apply onto the Zipper line and zipper.
Please be sure to apply the following steps before applying the lubricant:
Step 1: Defrost the zipper line using warm water on the zipper teeth. Quickly dry the zipper using microfiber towelettes until completely dry.
Step 2: Apply the Star Brite Lubricant onto the zipper and zipper teeth.
Step 3: Apply the lubricant every couple of days, especially in very cold temperatures.
Warning: Failure to use the lubricant may cause freezing, which may have the user force the zipper leading it to possibly break off in order to get out.
To your discretion, please be sure to follow these steps so you may use your Gardenigloo through these drops in temperature with no inconveniences.
What is the life span of the transparent cover?
Under proper conditions, the transparent cover has a life span of min. 2 years. Protecting it against excessive UV exposure and keeping it clean before storing will increase the life span of the cover.
How do I heat the Gardenigloo?
We as Gardenigloo USA LLC always urge owners to use outdoor type, electrical space heaters and extension cords. The Gardenigloo interior retains heat, so there should not be any need to have the heaters on 24/7.
Please refrain from using:
a) Propane or gas-based heaters
b) Open fire heating sources
c) Charcoal or coal-based heaters. Using these sources may lead to carbon monoxide poisoning if used.
How do I get rid of condensation?
The Gardenigloo has one entrance and two air vents. Simply opening these for a short amount of time will help circulate the humid air inside of the Gardenigloo. You may find visual info here: https://gardenigloousa.com/pages/videos.
Humidity in the Gardenigloo is attributed to two factors. Rain water slipping in and the surface it is placed on. It is wiser to elevate your Gardenigloo on a platform in order to prevent rain water coming in.
Surfaces like soil, grass will easily generate a lot of humidity and condensation. Choose an even surface that dries out quickly after a rain.
What is the wind resistance of the Garden Igloo?
Under proper conditions* Gardenigloo withstands strong wind conditions (Beaufort scale 6 - approx. 31 mi/h.
What is the Garden Igloo's snow load capacity?
Gardenigloo can bear up to max. 90 lbs of snow. If the snow on the dome reaches 6”, you should remove it with a broom or similar tool in order to prevent damage to Gardenigloo.
What is the UV - heat resistance of the Garden Igloo?
Gardenigloo’s structure is stable between temperatures ranging from -4°F to +140°F and withstands exposure to sunlight of up to UV index 5.
Can I use the transparent winter garden cover and the summer canopy cover together?
Yes, but the structure will not be converted to canopy form!
Are there any accessory cover options?
Yes, Gardenigloo provides several cover options for different usages, like the canopy cover.
How can I store the winter garden cover at the end of the season?
First clean the cover from both inside and outside with a microfiber cloth. Then fold it properly from inside out. Put it in its box and store it at room temperature for the next season.
How do I order spare parts?
First please identify the Gardenigloo you have. Each product has a unique serial number inside the covers label. Then please contact our team at stating the serial number and parts you need. Please take photographs as this will help us to process your requests ASAP. Also refer to https://gardenigloousa.com/pages/spare-parts.
How do I clean the transparent cover of my Garden Igloo?
Most surface dirt will be washed off with the rain. However, to keep it looking good, you can easily clean your transparent cover with a moist microfiber cloth. Do not machine-wash, bleach, tumble dry, iron, dry-clean.
Can I assemble the Garden Igloo myself?
Yes, we provide detailed, user-friendly, step-by-step assembly instructions and detailed videos on our web site https://gardenigloousa.com/pages/videos.
No tools are required for assembling. You can assemble it in less than 2 hours with ease.
Is it waterproof?
Yes, the transparent cover of Gardenigloo is unibody. There are no holes, attachments, stitches that can cause leaking. However, in the moist conditions of a greenhouse, moisture can condense on the inside surface and cause dripping.
Do they get hot in the summer?
Like a greenhouse, the temperature in the Gardenigloo will always be several degrees hotter than the external temperature; therefore it will get hot in summer. Keeping all the air vents open will help to reduce the heat inside. However, during sunny spring - summer days, when the outside temperature is above 50°F, the interior air temperature can rise to excessive heat levels (+140°F). These conditions may harm your Gardenigloo structure, any furniture inside, or your pets and plants.
When the outside temperature is above 50°F, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to monitor the interior temperature of Gardenigloo, keep the air vents open during day time, and when the interior temperature exceeds +104°F, completely remove the transparent winter cover and replace it with the summer canvas (Canopy Cover).
Do they stay warm in winter?
In winter close the windows and the dome will heat up several degrees, especially when it is very cold but the sun is out. It is also ideal for cutting out the wind chill factor. It will require roughly 40% less heating in winter than a standard greenhouse due to the geodesic shape. This is due to its low volume for its base area and the fact that its surface is always at right angles to the sun’s rays even in low winter sun, heating it up naturally.
Do I need a solid base or foundations?
Gardenigloo can be installed both on soft and hard surfaces. On hard surfaces like concrete, wood deck, etc., use the metal clamps with suitable screws. At softer grounds like soil, lawn, etc., use the provided base weight kit to fix your Gardenigloo to the ground.
Do you ship internationally?
Unfortunately, we do not ship internationally at this time.
