5.1. Регульований жалюзійний дах

Your pergola features an adjustable louvered roof system. Use the provided crank handle to independently adjust the four louvered roof sections from 0 to 90 degrees. This allows you to control the amount of sunlight and airflow, or close them completely for rain and snow protection.

5.2. Integrated Drainage System

The pergola features a built-in drainage system. When the louvers are closed, rainwater flows into hidden gutter channels, then down through the interior of the posts, and finally discharges at the base. This design prevents water pooling and keeps the area underneath dry.
