An aluminum pergola is designed to last for decades with minimal maintenance. However, a few simple steps help maintain its new appearance and ensure the proper functioning of its mechanisms. Here are our expert tips for maintaining your bioclimatic pergola.
Regular cleaning of the structure
Powder-coated aluminum doesn't rust and requires no special treatment. Cleaning with soapy water twice a year is enough to maintain your pergola's shine. Avoid abrasive products that could damage the finish.
- Clean with warm soapy water
- Soft sponge or microfiber cloth
- Rinse with clean water
- Dry with a soft cloth
- Avoid high-pressure cleaners
Maintenance of adjustable louvres
The louvres are the key element of your bioclimatic pergola. Regularly check their proper functioning and clean them to prevent dirt buildup that could hinder their rotation.
- Check louvre movement monthly
- Clean louvres on both sides
- Check seals
- Lubricate mechanisms if necessary
- Report any abnormal noise

Rainwater drainage
The water drainage system is essential for the longevity of your installation. Check that gutters and downspouts are not blocked by leaves or debris.
- Inspect gutters each season
- Remove accumulated leaves and debris
- Check water flow
- Check connections and seals
- Unblock with water if necessary
Annual preventive maintenance
We recommend an annual maintenance visit by a professional. This inspection helps detect potential problems before they worsen and ensures the longevity of your installation.
- Complete structural check
- Verification of fixings
- Test of motorized systems
- Programming update if needed
- Detailed inspection report
