Can it be used for a covered patio?

I think it would be fine on a covered patio as long as it's protected from the elements.

Only if installed in a covered patio type area that is not subject to rain or moisture, it's not rated as a weatherproof electrical fixture.

I have mind on a covered patio, I also sealed it with water seal and it seems to be doing great.

My patio is covered ... and it works fine. In fact, having a cover limits the paths birds can use to get in, and it might work better.

No it's slightly smaller than a typical patio umbrella. You'd have to tighten whatever screws hold it in the patio stand.

We use ours on a covered patio and are very happy with it. We've never tried the tower style so I don't know if that would be better

i would say yes to a covered porch as long as weather (rain) could not get to it but it is not made for outdoor use... although the water is in constant motion it's not moving like a river ... it moves enough to avoid stagnation and has a filter that deals with moderate amounts of foreign matter... these two things incline me to say negative on mosquito proliferation control

I think it could be kept outside if it is covered. It is made of durable wood so I think it would sustain the heat but I don't think I would leave it out in the rain.

I have mine in a barbecue island where it is covered top, back and sides, but the front is open to the weather. I'm not sure it can be completely uncovered.

No. It is definitely not designed for outside, but would probably do OK outside on a covered porch.

I have mine under my covered patio with a height of 12 feet.It works fine.Assure yourself that the patio is open to fresh air... (my walls are only six feet tall).

No,it is not intended for outdoor use, however if it is placed where it will not be directly exposed to the elements, it should be fine. If you place it under a porch, gazebo, or similar protection, so that it isn't soaked by a rainfall, there should be no worries.

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.

Yes, I use it on my patio and under the eaves as well as inside. Works great!

The top does get hot, I don't think it is recommended to put under a covered patio, however we did and it has not been an issue. We left it on overnight under a canvas with about 2 feet clearance and it did not catch fire...However I don't recommend that practice

Yes, actually think a patio area is ideal. I use it indoors and often have to fold it up when not in use. The mat is pretty hardy so should last.

Yes it gets extremely hot. You can put under a patio as long as you have at least 18 inches, but that also depends what your patio is covered with.
