Would this be good to block winter wind under a carport?

I would help but not totally block it. The mesh will allow water through it. Snow will not come through it however. hope this helps

We are using it on our uutside deck it will remain there throughout the year. We will cover it when the weather get cold and nasty. It may be a good idea to put a protective coat on it

Yes it's strong enough to support a pile of snow. But so is the top of the A/C unit without a cover. The mesh is not fine enough to keep all snow out of the unit. For that you would need a solid tarp. But I believe it's best to allow moisture (including snow) in, and back out through evaporation with a mesh like this product. You can leave it on all year if you wish.

It will keep rain off, not good in snow or wind. One person will not be able to easily drag or move while assembled.

I'm sorry, but I really don't know. I secured mine with some thin string to a gazebo-like structure. It held throughout our horrible winter with winds sometimes up to 35-45mph. Could you possible tie it up with long string to a nearby window?

You could but in bad weather it would freeze up I would build something around it to protect it from the eliments

Magnet isn't strong enough for that unless it's behind some sort of wind brake. I don't use mine on my vehicle though. It blew off my shipping container house in 45mph wind.

I suppose you could use it for sunshade. The cover has magnets to hold it onto the car, then there are two flaps that are supposed to be closed into the front doors of your car for extra security. I live in Colorado, where we get a lot of snow and wind, and the cover has never failed me.

I don't know due to I never had set up all year or in snowy weather. I mainly used in November for thanksgiving so it was chilly out. It did hold up good in rain and fair winds. I think it would be ok in light snow but anything heavy may be a problem. The frame is really solid. The tarp material Is not real heavy like it could be. I would suggest if you wanted year round for a carport is go to a Harborfreight Tool store and purchase a big tarp and add to the roof. would give more stability for snow.

I can't imagine it could withstand wind, if it is above the windshield. I'm short and I like the way it makes the visor go further down the windshield and block the sun. The small piece can be moved back and forth for extra darkening. I like mine. Hope this answers your Q.

Possibly, if you don't have heavy winds or snow. I'm in central AL, and I love the coverage of this tent. We set it up on our cement carport in preparation for a yard sale the following day. That night, heavy winds & rain blew it over, but we did not have it staked into the ground. 2 of the 6 support poles bent, but we were able to make it work for the 2-day sale. I think if you adequately stake it to the ground, it would make a great pool/patio cover. The poles seem to be replacible w/PVC pipe. It's a decent tent, just not for those of us in the tornado-prone South or frequent snowfall North.

I don't think so because it's hard to see thru and not completely flat. I wouldn't recommend it. It works great for the back to prevent dust from flying into the cab. I have a hard windwhield plus this and am happy with it. Let me know if I can be of more help in making your decision.

it would definitely provide shade.... although despite the vent in the back, it didn't have a whole lot of air flow unless you were right near the front.

Not sure as I use it as a small tractor ride protector in wind and winter cold - likely is good provided it fits securely.

It would be ok.. but it's very light and the wind may blow it away... I think I would use something made of stone.. or an equivalent to stone.

I cannot answer whether it actually blocks or what % UV blockage it provides as i do not have scientific equipment to determine that kind of information. However, it did give nice shade, allowed rain to filter through, and tolerated some very strong wind storms. I finally took it down for winter when the first snow arrived and it was holding snow.

NO! They are way too thin for that. They will help, and will keep the wind off, but anything cooler than 65 and you will be cold. You CAN use them as a layer. It takes a little work, but under my 3/2 they work fine.
