Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Q: Do I need professional installation for the aluminum louvered pavilion?
A: It’s recommended. The package includes a detailed manual, but professional installers ensure proper anchoring (to concrete or wood deck) and electrical connection for the remote system. Most installations take 2-4 hours for standard sizes.

• Q: Can the louvers be operated manually if the remote runs out of battery?
A: Yes! All models have a manual override function—use the included crank to adjust louvers in case of power issues.

A: Yes. The frame has pre-drilled holes and mounting points for LED lights, ceiling fans, or speakers—perfect for evening gatherings.

Basic Installation Steps (For Reference)

1. Prepare the Site: Ensure the ground is level (concrete slab, wooden deck, or gravel with concrete footings). Mark the pavilion’s footprint according to the size.

2. Assemble the Frame: Connect the aluminum frame pieces using the included bolts and nuts. Use a level to ensure the frame is square and upright.

3. Install Louvers: Attach the louver panels to the top frame. Connect the electric control motor (follow the wiring diagram in the manual).

4. Anchor the Pavilion: Use expansion bolts to secure the frame to concrete, or lag screws for wood decks. This step is crucial for wind stability.

5. Test the System: Use the remote to adjust louvers and test the manual override. Install side curtains if included.

An aluminum louvered pavilion isn’t just a shade structure—it’s an investment in flexible, low-maintenance outdoor living. Whether you’re hosting a BBQ, reading a book, or enjoying a sunset, it adapts to your needs perfectly. Choose the right size and enjoy years of outdoor comfort!
