Want to place on concrete patio. There is a deck overhead. Often some dirt and bird seed may fall down below. Will tiles get clogged?

I have these tiles laid directly on dirt in backyard. Even after it rains, the most I would need to do is smack the tiles with a broom to loosen the dirt.

Dirt and bird seed will most likely clog the tiles...nothing a leaf blower can't handle tho. Good luck

Maybe if you step on it and push it down, but otherwise I wouldn't think so. We track sand and small rocks over ours and I just sweep it off. Every once in a while I pull it away and sweep underneath and so far no clogging.

Had my tile down for a year nothing has stuck in or under the tile. It is on a concrete slab with no cover

The patio floor will become wet only if the relative humidity is very, very high. Most hots days even with high relative humdity the moisture will stay around a bit longer. The product does work but you have to keep it clean (nozzles) and it must be near an AC outlet and obviously a water (hose) connection. Also, don't put it right in front of you at a very close distance as the high fan setting with moisture spray will leave a little damp spots here and there. However, the whole point of the device is to cool the air around you with a mist spray.

Katie, this product is not designed to be used under ceramic tile or stone, it is to be used indoors only and only under floating wood or laminate floor. You can use thinset and adhere your ceramic tiles or stone directly to the concrete balcony.Good luck with the project.Charlie

Absolutely. Mine is on a concrete slab under a covered porch. Just remember there is no floor so anything touching the floor would get wet if you had a moisture issue.

I use mine on concrete and it does a great job. I feel like it will do you a good job on the deck....R. Hobbs

Place on concrete patio? Sure. Don't foresee a problem unless you intend to plant items that grow really deep roots. On a wood patio? Probably would need a base as dirt will fall/wash away through wood slats.Not sure if you are aware, but the wood is just the 'outline'; frame is seemingly flimsy until dirt is poured in to stabilize the unit.

I filled the base with sand, removed a couple inches of dirt from the spot where it's permanently mounted plus put a couple of bricks on top. We do have some very large raccoons that visit at night but they eat the seeds the birds have knocked out of the feeder tray and left on the ground. Never had anything try to tip it over and don't really think anything could due to weight of base being firmed implanted in ground.

Yes, the roof keeps 90% of the seeds dry. The only seeds that get wet are those at the bottom where the birds feed. I put my bird feeder up under a tree and have attracted numerous birds to the feeder in no time...

If the deck is concrete, get a concrete patch, added atop some sealer. About $10 for both. I have not tested my Durham's against water, but it dries very hard and has extremely tight particle compression meaning it does not appear to dissolve when water is applied after dring. It would sure be better than nothing.

Well, to be honest I don't know. I have it under my deck and it is outside. It does get damp and sometimes a little wet, I've had no problem thus far. It works great.

Not touching the ground IMO is better due to moving the grill; the cover get caught under the wheels or legs. I bought this cover and it skims the cement on the patio and no harm has come to the cover or grill. So to answer the question; I don't think it's bad as long as it's not the grass.

Yes . Mine stays in place but I imagine it would depend on the deck surface . Mine is finished concrete.

Hi, I have an unground pool and the deck is called cool deck I think. Basically, it is a cement coating with texture and I have used concrete stain on it several times and can pressure wash it safely. I would recommend that you get some liquid chlorine at your neighborhood pool store and use a garden sprayer that you can pump and mix the chlorine with water- probably half-strength is sufficient. You can buy one of those pump sprayers at Lowe's that is made to use with chlorine for around $20. This is a great way to clean any concrete as well. I also recommend that you use the spray wand instead of the deck cleaning tool. This way you are able to control the pressure and spray pattern. The chlorine mix will do alot of the job for you and allow you to clean it with less chance of damaging the grout. Hope that helps! Tim

I dont set it up on concrete but for grass and dirt setups, I have some 'u' anchors that I pound into the ground over the upright stands to keep it from being blown over. That has been easy cheap and effective for me. Good luck

The canopy is made to be planted in the ground using the included ground spikes to stabilize the canopy.if your going to put it on a cement surface and its windy it will be a problem.

Most likely. There are drainage holes in the turf, but more a soil application. I wouldn't see any harm in putting it on concrete, it just may stay damp underneath and you would want to dry it out or check on it periodically.

As long as it is upright it can be set on a patio stone without any problems. Obviously you don't want to place it directly on the soil to avoid rust on the case. I have several of them and some are free standing while others are attached to walls. The drip proof construction prevents sprinkler and/or rain water from entering the enclosure.
