Maintenance
Regular maintenance is essential to maintain the good looks of all Stratco steel
products and to ensure you receive the maximum life-span possible in your area.
Gutters must be regularly cleaned to prevent the build up of leaf debris, fungus
or any other material that could prevent the free drainage of water from the roof.
Washing with clean water must be frequent enough to prevent the accumulation
of dust, salts, and pollutants or any other material that will reduce the life of
the product. Stratco steel products that are regularly washed by rain require no
additional maintenance. No Stratco steel structure or materials are recommended
for use over, or in close proximity, to swimming pools or spas. No material that
retains water (such as dirt or paving sand) should be placed against the columns.
Care must be taken when determining the location of Stratco steel products so that
they are not placed in close contact with sources of pollution or environmental
factors that could affect the life of the steel. Refer to the ‘Selection, Use and
Maintenance’ brochure for more information.
