I left out the table, but took in chairs and umbrella. I have a heavy flag holder that anchors the table. the table looks fine this Spring........

No. The unit in my opinion is not durable enough to be left outside. If you brought back in after use u should be ok. I personally have not took it outside.

I cannot imagine leaving it plugged in outside but if your concern is the flexibility of the cord, it should be fine. I leave mine plugged in an unheated garage. While it is slightly less flexible than during the summer, it is still far more usable than most cords. I cannot speak to the safety of leaving a cord plugged in outside all winter.

This question is older but in case the original poster or someone else still wants an answer: Yes, you can set it up outside in the winter. I would recommend putting a tarp under it to keep the bottom dry. Don't leave it out to get damp. If it does get damp / wet, set it up in your garage or similar covered area and run it till it is dry. You do not want to fold it up and put it away with it being damp. Also, I know this may be obvious, but don't set it up and run it in the rain.

I have left mine out many years and it worked fine. Sometimes it would get covered with snow. It rarely gets into the teens here in Norfolk Va. But it does go below freezing a lot.

No it doesn't. I live in New England and left it out all winter and it was just fine. It's also heavy enough that the strong winds we have had have not made it move an inch. Love my heater ( though up here it's more for the view than the heat).

Absolutely not. We leave it out uncovered all winter and that would be a Chicago winter

It says it should not be left up in cold environments. I did read a few reviews that said they left it up so we are trying it this year. We are located in Northwest Ohio where winters can be either harsh or mild and this year has been more mild. Will know more this spring when the cover is removed.

Yes. Even if you left water in the pond during freezing weather, the shape of the pond would probably allow the ice to pop out and not damage the pond itself. Just to be sure, though, I would empty the pond before freezing weather.

Yes, you can remove the top but I believe the entire thing is supposed to be dismantled and taken in for the winter, especially if you want it to last. I don't think it is designed to stay outside in the cold.

Yes it can. Mine stays outside year round. and always works great.Tom Pinkerton

I would suggest dissembling it for winter if you aren't going to use it. It stands up well, but it doesn't hurt to keep it out of the elements when you can!

We don't have snow down here, but it is heavy nylon shell and I imagine you could. Don't know if you could control it though.

I leave my battery, weedwacker and charger in the garage year round (upstate ny) and haven't had any problems! Winters are freezing and snowy and today it's 93 and hot and humid! I would imagine wherever you are it should be ok as long as its dry!

Hi. As one of the other questions indicates, it can be safely stored outside during winter. Just empty the barrel, disconnect the hose, and turn the barrel upside down to prevent capturing snow. The hose connection to the barrel is easily removed, and the gutter connection left in place.

Yes. I have had it out all winter long. Lots and lots of snow and ice here no issue at all. It handled it beautifully. It's a wonderful item. No problems with it.
