How Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Handle Sun and Rain?
Polyester resists moisture absorption, so water sits on the surface instead of soaking through to the backing. The UV stabilization prevents sun damage that causes other rugs to bleach out over a season, which matters if you're laying it on a deck or covered porch that gets afternoon light. You can hose off dirt and spills, and the flat weave construction means there's no pile to hold water -- it'll be dry by the next morning. Polyester doesn't support mold or mildew growth the way natural fibers do, so you won't get that mildew smell even in humid climates.Do You Have to Bring It Inside for Winter?
You can leave it out on a covered porch all year if it's protected from standing water, but most people roll it up and store it dry if snow is forecast. Machine wash cold with mild detergent before you put it away, then lay it flat or hang it to air-dry -- the ultra-thin weave dries completely in a few hours. Never use a dryer; the heat can damage the non-skid backing. If you keep it outside through light rain, just shake off any debris and let it dry naturally.Frequently Asked Questions
- Can an outdoor rug get wet?
- Yes -- polyester flat weave dries fast after rain or cleaning, and the ultra-thin profile won't hold standing water.
- How do I clean an outdoor rug?
- Machine wash cold with mild detergent, or hose off outdoors and hang to dry. Air-dry only; don't use a dryer.
- Can this stay outside all year?
- It can stay on a covered porch year-round, but roll it up and store it dry if you get heavy snow or prolonged wet weather.
- Will the finish fade in direct sun?
- The UV stabilization prevents fading in full sun, so the brown won't bleach out over the season.
- What size do I need for a dining table?
- The 8 ft. x 10 ft. allows 24 inches of rug beyond the chair legs when you pull them out; the 5 ft. x 7 ft. 6 in. works for small patios or entryways.
- Does this rug need a pad underneath?
- The non-skid backing grips tile, hardwood, and laminate without a separate pad, though you can add one for extra cushioning indoors.
