Thank you for making these videos, they are extremely helpful and we'll def be referring back to your first video when we get ours in a couple of weeks. 😺
Is there a way to have the drainage system only work on one side? For example, if I have it up against the side of my house, I'd want the water to drain away from the house, and not towards the house, if that makes sense?
We get a lot of snow and I dont see a cross beam for support under the louvres. It looks awesome but it would be destroyed after the first winter. Opting to build my pergola.
Curious to know about how loud the rain is on the louvers when it’s closed. We would be installing this in our back yard where we have our bedroom on the second floor. My husband is wondering if it’s loud since rain is hitting metal. Great video!
What direction does the water drain from out of the bottom of the posts? It kind of looks like it drains into the covered area rather than to the outside of the pergola. When it rains does it result in a decent amount of water pooling inside the covered area?
Can you bury the columns like fence posts instead of securing to concrete? I will be securing on or under paving stone patio. The only problem I can see is it would negate the drainage on bottom bc being buried
Thanks for the update. You mentioned that you have not bolt down the post yet. I am wondering if you decide to move the pergalo, how can you lift up such a heavy stuff? Thanks for your time.
Hi did you have a chance to test it in heavy rain? I installed mine yesterday and perfectly leveled closing smoothly, everything looks good, but at night we have heavy rain, and it leaks on every single louver. During the light rain at the beginning, everything was fine. Please command.
What sides of the legs does the rain spit out from? I plan to install approx 1” from my house. Even though my cement is sloped enough, I don’t want lots of water to pour to the house. I can’t seem to find any videos or pictures showing how/where water comes out from
Hello so I’m looking into the EROMMY Louvered Pergola 12x24 only cause mirador does not make larger one than a 10x20 I was wondering what your thoughts are on this, I mean they are both aluminum and louvered style, just wondering if there would be a difference in quality or what not
Can't believe all of the hardware up top is exposed. I can see all kinds of leaves, seeds, debris, etc. getting trapped in all those nooks n crannies affecting the operation of the louvers quickly. Depends on where it's located, but many people have trees or neighbor's trees shedding something. Not to mention the weather elements will affect the hinges a lot faster since they're exposed. Should've had some sort of housing over it help alleviate some of those issues.

Thanks, you'll love yours!

Not sure, I think if was sloped away from the house?
I want the same thing, I need the water to move away from my home.
Generally, the drainage would be determined by the slope of the pad. The pergola is mounted on.
Thank you for this great video! Mine just arrived today.
Nice!

Just keep the louvers open
Great video.. I live in Texas and we get some crazy hail. Do you know if it can stand in these kinds of conditions?
It should be fine in wind and hail, being metal it feels very sturdy
@@Myksgaragewon’t it be loud? How’s your experience with the aluminum in the elements?

I can't hear it from inside my house, but mine is also not installed right next to my house.
@@Myksgarage Makes sense. Thanks for the quick response! 😊
Love the review! Question, some say heavy rains do leak through. I have a tv under where I’m hoping to place. Have you experienced heavier rains?
I've just had light rain, and it's done just fine
Hey Chris..i am on a same boat. Wondering what did you end up with. Trying to make up my mind on this vs normal pergola with clear polycarbonate roofs
Just wondering how long before the louver track gets cruded up and louvers close separately or not at all? Kind of like louver curtains.
I don't see that happen, it's been designed to prevent that
What direction does the water drain from out of the bottom of the posts? It kind of looks like it drains into the covered area rather than to the outside of the pergola. When it rains does it result in a decent amount of water pooling inside the covered area?
It would flow away from the posts,
But it could also depend on how your concrete is sloped too

You probably could and would be fine
What is the outside height? I am wanting to put it next to the house and need to make sure it fits under the soffit.
I'll have to measure
How has it held up?
Very well, zero issues!
Thanks for the update. You mentioned that you have not bolt down the post yet. I am wondering if you decide to move the pergalo, how can you lift up such a heavy stuff? Thanks for your time.
One person on each post lifting you can move it
How’s the racking? Could a couple people push it over?
It's pretty sturdy, especially when anchored down
@@Myksgarage reason I ask is I have the Costco vinyl pergola that uses 4x4 and it could easily be pushed over
I see you also have a gazebo. If you could only have one do to space which one would you recommend (go with) ?
Depends. We have our hot tub under the gazebo and really like it, the pergola is nice for sitting areas

Mine did fine and heavy rain. Maybe it was coming in from the openings on the side?

can the louvers be converted to power operated at all?
Possibly if you connect a motor to where the wand connects
Is this aluminum pergola little shaky after install or is very sturdy like wooden once? For some reason mine is bit shaky after install. 10x10. Thanks
Mine feels pretty solid. Have you anchored yours down?
Costco website only says White and Bronze. Dont see charcoal :(
Did you check Amazon?

Just a quick query, how's it in the rain in terms of leak through?
I've had no issues with rain leaking through
How do you know about the snow load? Did it snow that one month after installation?
The company says it will hold snow
When open how much sun gets in....same as sunbathing out in open?
About half as much sunlight
@@Myksgarage thank you. So the wife would still be able to tan 👍
Wondering if it attracts lightning?
Yeah not sure about that one

I'm sure they are similar
What do you think about grilling under the Pergola?
I would have no reservations at all
Can you drill into patio stone pavers?
I'm sure you can
Are the posts 4x4 or 6x6?
They are 4x4
Legs should be adjustable for slopped patio.
Yeah I could have shimmed the legs

I didn't see any of that as a concern
