Quest® Screen House 4 Pro Pop Up Gazebo – Grey

Quest Screen House 4 Pro
This is the Pro version of the best selling Screen House 4. It is still the simplest, quickest, easiest and best gazebo on the market. It has 4 sides and is built and designed so one person can erect (or take it down) in less than one minute.There is nothing to put together or assemble, you simply take it out of the, place it on the floor and open it out. Once opened out simply walk around the screen house pulling each side towards you which pops the side into place, then walk inside and push the roof up. The screen house is then erected and ready to be pegged, there are two additional poles which go into the doorway and this just to give the doorway extra rigidity when open. We always recommend using the door poles and pegging the screen house down using the pegging points and most importantly the storm straps (all included) as this ensures the screen house is secured to the ground and that the sides cannot be blown in by the wind.The Screen House Pro has the same built in, premium Quest No-Chill mesh panels all around, including over the doorway as the standard screen house. This enables you to have a full insect screen all around, but still allows you full 360 degree views from all around. The mesh allows air flow in and out of the screen house, which ensures it is safe to cook under (naked flames and heat sources must be kept away from the sides at all times) as you have full air flow. Whilst the mesh allows air flow it does stop the wind chill. This works by allowing the air through the mesh, but it breaks the wind up as the air passes through the mesh and this removes that wind chill factor, perfect when you just want to sit out of the wind, but still want uninterrupted views all around. The roof is waterproof and taped (the mesh sides are not) and UV coated to give you 50+ uv rating to help protect you and the screen house itself from the suns harmful rays. This helps ensure that on a hot day you get an excellent amount of shade and protection. This combined with the mesh sides is why the screen house works so well all year round. It is warmer in the wind and cooler in the sun, whilst allowing great views all the time. The Screen House Pro then has additional zip down full sides with windows. So on top of the mesh sides you get additional full cover sides that can simply be zipped down to close and give extra weather protection and privacy, or up to allow full views and access to the mesh panels. The full sides also have a window in the top of them with an external blind allowing you to close the side, but still have a window open to allow light and the views in.It uses the latest generation premium hub system which has been improved on again making it smaller, lighter and more durable, whilst maintaining its ease of use and ability to be repaired if required. The premium hub system has been improved over the last 5 years to produce the best balance between weight, performance, and maintenance. When we use our own screen house as demos we typically use them for 2-3 years. In this time they are used at countless shows and at each one of these shows it is used for demos all day, every day. So each of our samples goes through approximately 10-15 years worth of wear and tear every year, and we use them for 2-3 years which gives us and yourselves the confidence that the premium hub system is extremely durable and will last for years.The Screen House 4 Pro also features the new accessory zip. This is a full zip that runs around the entire front of the screen house allowing for additional accessories to be attached to extend the features of your screen house. These accessories include a full canopy which gives you a large covered external space to the front of the screen house for extra weather protection. A vehicle connector which allows you to connect your Screen House 4 Pro directory to a low motor home / camper van (will fit between 180 – 210 in height), which turns your screen house into a fully fledged drive away awning. Also the Screen Shield which is a 180cm high extendable windbreak that can be zipped onto the front of you screen hose to give you a fully protected area to the front of your screen house.The screen house is also tested to wind force 7 speed. This is tested in a controlled wind tunnel environment to ensure that the screen house is excellent in windy conditions. Whilst the screen house is tested up to wind force 7, these are in a controlled environment and thus not representative of gale force winds outdoors. Due to peg movement, wind direction change and gusting and other external influences, like the type of ground it is pegged into, how well it has been pegged out, how tight (or over tight) the storm straps are it is impossible to replicate this in a controlled environment, so it is always recommended to drop the screen house down in gale force or harsh weather.No mesh material has a UV A or B rating as it is mesh, so there are holes in it so it cannot offer any protection from the sun as the holes will let the UV rays through.On the standard screen house (120051 etc.) UV 50+ rating refers to the roof alone (and the shade the roof gives, or the optional sides (purchased separately).But the pro version (which A3005-GR is) has the zip down sides which do have a UV coating of 50+. So as long as the sides are zipped down you get the protection.I do not know the UV rating of the windows in the sides as this is something we have never been asked before (and never through of asking the factory), but the windows have external blinds on them to allow you full protection from the sun. The downside is that you will also block the views, but you cannot have both. You can have the sides down on one side to protect from the sun coming n from that side and as the sun moves over , close the other sides and open the first ones to continue to give you protection.We do not test UVA or UVB separately, so cannot give individual ratings. The ratings om the material is because it has a UV coating on the outside of the material and the material itself also provides protection from the suns rays (similar to what a t-shirt would).The UV coating on the screen house will be gradually worn down with use (the suns rays bake the material, and the water and rain scour the material), so we would recommend (as we do for any lightweight material), to give the screen house a wash with an awning cleaner (which further damages the UV coating) and then reproof the screen house (with an awning reproofer) which recoats the fabric.This cleaning and reproofing will extend the lifespan of the screen house and ensure the protection lasts for longer.
