Patio Table Cover Frequently Asked Questions

• Should Patio Table Covers Be Used Year-Round?

  Yes, outdoor table covers should be used year-round to protect your backyard dining set from various elements. Using covers consistently helps prevent damage from UV rays, rain, snow, and debris, ensuring that your furniture remains in top condition. This practice not only extends the life of your patio table but also keeps them clean and ready for use at any time.

• Do You Recommend Waterproof Table Covers?

  Coverstore's table covers are highly water-resistant and designed for optimal breathability. Waterproof covers, while offering barrier protection, are not ideal for tables due to their lack of breathability. Trapped moisture under non-breathable covers can lead to mold and mildew growth on your furniture. In contrast, our water-resistant and breathable table covers allow any trapped condensation to evaporate quickly, preventing moisture accumulation. We use industry-leading materials and have equipped our covers with breathable mesh vents to ensure proper airflow and ventilation, keeping your outdoor tables protected and dry.

• Can I Cover My Outdoor Dining Table and Chairs Together?

  Yes, you can cover your outdoor dining table and chairs together. Many outdoor table covers are designed to be large enough to encompass both the table and the chairs, providing a comprehensive protective barrier. This setup simplifies the process of covering your outdoor dining area and ensures that everything is uniformly protected from weather, dust, and debris. It’s important to choose a cover that fits well over your entire set to maintain optimal protection and prevent any water from pooling in the center of the cover.

• How Do I Stop Water from Pooling on My Outdoor Table Cover?

  If water frequently pools on your table covers, it's likely too large for the table, or the chairs around the table are too high. To fight this, we recommend tilting the chair in to lessen the height difference or use air bags to fill in the gap.

• Do I Have to Remove My Umbrella to Use an Outdoor Table Cover?

  No, you do not need to remove your umbrella to use an outdoor table cover. We offer covers equipped with an umbrella hole and a zipper, allowing you to easily install and remove your backyard table cover without the hassle of removing your umbrella. This convenient feature simplifies the process, ensuring that both your table and the umbrella remain protected simultaneously.
