The weather in South Florida can often take a turn for the worse at an unexpected moment. From torrential rains to sudden storms, outdoor plans can be quickly and easily dampened by a downpour of rain showers that seem to come every Spring / Summer season like clockwork. But while you can’t always rely on the picture-perfect weather forecast for weekend barbecues or deck parties, there is something you can do to take the guesswork out of your outdoor projects. The key is creating an all-weather living space that is no longer at the mercy of Old Mother Nature with the right pergola gutter system!
At Azenco, we believe that the perfect pergola requires a smartly-designed hidden gutter system. While other builders may settle for a simple roof gutter or a louvered rain gutter, we know that a fully extruded pergola gutter system is essential to direct rainwater away from your structure.
Leak-Free Pergola Gutter System
Azenco’s high-quality pergolas boast a unique gutter system that is crafted entirely in the factory. This precision manufacturing technique extends the louvers over the gutter, allowing the slats to fold down onto a rubber gasket for a sealed perimeter. Unlike other manufacturers who cut aluminum segments in the field, Azenco’s pergola gutter system is built in the factory using the same extrusion and robot cutting machines used for the pergola frames and louvers. This prevents leaks from developing over time and ensures that your pergola will maintain its functionality and aesthetics for years to come.
Invisible Pergola Gutter
Our pergolas offer both form and function, with rainwater efficiently managed through our hidden pergola gutter system that preserves the clean, refined appearance of the structure. The sleek design, which can complement any architectural style from contemporary to coastal chic, is achieved through concealed downspouts, resulting in the epitome of outdoor sophistication.
Managing Rainflow: Maximizing the Benefits of the pergola gutter
To ensure that water is effectively diverted from your covered outdoor living space, it’s important to manage rain runoff through your pergola gutter system. While directing it towards a yard or French drain is a good option, there’s an even more beneficial alternative. By redirecting runoff toward a surrounding landscape or shrubs, rainwater can serve as a valuable source of hydration for the garden. Apartment or condo owners can even channel rainwater to existing downspouts to protect downstairs neighbors, while transforming their balcony into an inviting, all-weather space.
Streamlined Upkeep
Traditional open gutters attract unwanted debris, necessitating constant maintenance to ensure proper drainage. Our pergola gutter are extruded seamlessly, leaving no gaps or overlaps that could allow rainwater to seep into the interior of your pergola, where vital components such as electric wiring, louver motors, and smart sensors are safely housed.
Unmatched Durability: A Timeless Investment
Elevating the concept of longevity, our contemporary aluminum pergolas are meticulously formed with only the finest materials available. The construction process entails utilizing the best aluminum alloys together with top-rated external powder coatings for the louvers, roof frame, support posts, and concealed internal gutter system. Through the seamless integration of these premium materials throughout the production of your pergola, Azenco assures you that the overall structure will endure a lifetime. Furthermore, Azenco offers an unrivaled 15-year warranty on both the structure and exterior powder coating, thanks to these exceptional material choices.
Seamless Integration of Indoor-Outdoor Spaces with our Pergolas
Our pergolas are versatile enough to serve as standalone structures for patios, pool decks, and gardens, or you can attach them to the side of your home for a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. However, when mounting the pergola to multiple sides of your house, rainwater drainage can become an issue as external gutters cannot be used. To address this, our gutter system is incorporated within the pergola frame to ensure smooth and proper drainage even when attached to multiple sides of a home. This hidden gutter system safeguards against water overload and prevents the waterfall effect during heavy rainfalls, while preserving the overall elegance of your outdoor living space.
