OZtrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo with Hydro Flow

G'day James,

These gazebos are not made with waterproof nylon- the canopy material is 300D polyester, which is not given any sort of waterproof coating at the manufacturing stage. As such, OZtrail has not specified any kind of formal waterproofing rating for this product. 

While the hydro flow bars do indeed promote water shedding from the canopy (to prevent large 'puddles' of water collecting), if exposed to prolonged heavy rain some water will likely seep through the material.

Hope that helps clarify things somewhat!

G'day Chris,

We're not 100% sure sorry - Oztrail do have an exclusive product line with Bunnings, but we dont have access to the specs differences, if there are any.
Oztrail would be the best point of contact for this question, they'll be able to give you more info of the exclusive models.

G'day Misha,

While OZtrail gazebos are manufactured using water-repellent fabrics, most waterproofing products are made to revive an already existing waterproofing coating which these gazeboes don't have. The OZtrail Aqua Proof Waterproofer is only suitable for canvas products so it wouldn't be suitable for the Polyester Canopy. 

The best option would be to use some Seam Grip Seam Sealant to seal the seams then use a spray-on waterproofer like the Atsko Silicone Water Guard or other silicone spray to spray both sides of the canopy.

It's not recommended to have these out in heavy prolonged rain, but this extra coating will help repel the water from the fabric. It may be worth repeating the process now and then to keep the fabric water-repellent.

G'day Katherine,

OZtrail has tested these in the wind up to 60 km/hr. It is recommended to take these down if it gets windy or bad weather.

OZtrail also have a blog about How To Prolong The Life Of Your Gazebo which gives some tips!

G'day Maddie,

The Gazebo feet are a triangle shape, from the top point to the bottom of the foot is 9cm and from the bottom corner to corner is 9.5cm.

G'day Sharon,

Yep, it does!  If you have an existing oztrail gazebo the frame and feet will be the same, the only difference with this model is the extra yellow tension bars in the roof corners.
Hope that helps!

G'day Chris,

The packed dimensions are the product packed up when not in use.  These are different to the freight dimensions.
Hope that helps!

G'day Vee,

Assuming you're meaning the canopy edge around the frame?  In that case, it's approximately 29cm.
Hope that helps!

I'm not aware of any gazebo's for which we would recomend leaving the canopy attached. You can fold these up as such but it may damage the fabric. As for waterproof ratings on zippers, the zippers used on gazebo's and their accessories are not of the waterproof type, so they are a point at which water can leak through. 

It does, Simon, we really need to get an image on our website of the bag. It looks like this one, although the colour might differ - https://www.snowys.com.au/carry-bag-deluxe-gazebo. ~ Ben

G'day Marlene,

Great question! All the indications are that the 2022 models don't have the straps to hold the canopy to the frame. Our store team has not seen the 2022 models yet but the 2022 canopies we have in stock do not have these straps.

Having said all that, you need to guy rope gazebos down anyway. There really is no other way to keep a gazebo from becoming an expensive, heavy, and dangerous kite - even in light winds.

G'day Matthew,

As long as you have good air flow and ventilation you'll be fine!

G'day Hayley,

The Zempire Aerobase range is the only shelter/gazebo that we stock that comes with any waterproof testing or waterhead rating.
Unfortunately these are a different design, and not similar to the Oztrail style gazebos.

G'day Jeremy,

The Ultramesh Tarp in the 3.05m2 size will be your best bet.

G'day Arthur,

Oztrails manufacturing is based overseas, primarily out of China.

G'day Andrew,

Hex pegs are a common option for use with the gazebos, especially with stallholders as they will drill into hard/compact ground common in car parks and marketplaces.

G'day Troy,

Yes, the Screen Inner Kit can be used with the Deluxe Gazebos with Hydro Flow bars.

G'day Melissa,

We don't currently have any screws in stock, however Oztrail does list them directly on their website in the spare parts section, so you should be able to grab some there: https://www.oztrail.com.au/collections/spare-parts

G'day Jacqui,

The current model Hydro Flow Gazebos don't have a central hook and velcro attachment to the frame. This was changed last year, and as far as we understand Oztrail don't have plans to go back to the older version.

G'day Naz,

There are no direct attachment mechanisms, however, you could use the eyelet holes on the Coleman Tent awning to tie the awning to the gazebo frame and connect the two items together so you have coverage moving between them.

G'day Kelly,

Oztrail does specify that the guy ropes do need to be secured to ensure that there is good tension on the canopy, and to reduce the risk of the wind catching the Gazebo. We'd recommend pitching the guy ropes with a shallower angle, and attaching some visually obvious ribbon or similar to the guy ropes if you're worried about creating a trip hazard.

G'day Alanda,

Thanks for getting in touch, there isn't specifically a way to attach an instant up tent to a gazebo however you can make it work with a bit of suggestion. The Coleman Deluxe Gazebo 3 x 3  has a compatible velcro strip that will attach to your tent velcro.

G'day Lilian,

The canopy is made from a 300 denier UVTex fabric that will block out 98% of UV radiation.

G'day Louise,

Unfortunately not, the Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo with Hydro Flow is only available in the Blue colour pictured.

G'day Ben,

Oztrail has not included these webbing straps on the new gazebos. Their reasoning is that the guy ropes will perform the same function as the straps by holding down the canopy to the frame!

Hi Mina,

Yes, this is correct, the guy ropes must be secured properly to ensure the canopy remains in place safely. At markets etc we'd recommend using sandbag kits or weights to secure the guy ropes in place.

G'day Eileen,

The other branded walls have different ways of attaching to the gazebo so we wouldn't recommend using them with the 3.0 Deluxe Gazebo with Hydroflow. The Oztrail 3m Solid walss are designed to be used with the Deluxe gazebo range and are designed to fit best on the low and middle height setting.

G'day Greg,

We do sell replacement canopies for the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo, you can find them here. 

G'day Josef,

We do sell spare parts for the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo. Based on your description it sounds like you'll need the Scissor Action Strut Kit.

G'day Karline,

The large roof vents improve heat and wind dissipation but they are integrated into the canopy and cannot be opened for extra air flow. 

G'day Andrew,

I'm sorry to say the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo does not come with the anti ponding bars. Only the Hydroflow gazebo frames come with integrated anti ponding technology. 

Sorry for the confusion Andrew, at the time Gen answered this question we didn't have the model with Hyrdo Flow yet. When we received the new stock with the Hydro Flow frames the listing was updated.

I can confirm that the Hydro Flow model has anti-ponding bars built into the frame.

G'day Phia,

One person will be able to set up the Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo, it will obviously take a little longer than two people, but I've done it by myself on a few occasions.

There's no such thing as a silly question as far as we are concerned, Helen. If you use four solid walls on your gazebo you will need to access the inside via the corners which would be fiddly. Ideally, you would want one of your walls to have a central zipper like this one - https://www.snowys.com.au/deluxe-3m-centre-zip-solid-wall,  that way you've got easy access in and out of your enclosed gazebo.

G'day Samantha,

I'm not sure if water damage is covered by Oztrails warranty sorry. If you have a gazebo that you brought from us with a problem send us an email to service@snowys.com.au and we'll get our warranties team to follow it up for you. 

G'day Danielle,

The Oztrail Deluxe Gazebo's are pretty quick to set up.I'd say without walls it would take 5-10 minutes to erect the gazebo and another 5-10 minutes to set up guy ropes.

G'day Marty,

From the underside the vents in the Oztrail Deluxe 3m Gazebo measure around 30cms across. Gazebos are notorious for lifting up like this in the wind due to their 'parachute' shape. I personally wouldn't rely on the vents to significantly reduce the amount of lift created in the wind. Your best bet is to have the gazebo securely pegged out and use all the included guy ropes. If you can't peg it out the Oztrail Base Pod Kit is your next best option. But if the wind picks up too much the only really safe option is to quickly pull the canopy off altogether. 

G'day Ash,

All the Deluxe Gazebo canopies have a silver coloured coating on the underside that is designed to reflect a bit of heat away so I don't think the colour will make a huge difference. If I was going to make an educated guess I'd go with a lighter colour like the yellow.
Denier refers to the weight of the individual fibers in a fabric. Generally, the higher the number the more abrasion resistant a fabric, and the lower the number the softer the 'hand' or feel of the fabric will be.
I've not used the porticos myself and we don't currently have a demo model but I've always assumed that if you're dropping the height of the canopy lower than the 193cm height of the portico you'll need to drop the portico as well as they're not designed as a stand-alone item.

G'day Jack,

The Oztrail Deluxe Gazebos have a light silver coloured coating on the inside. 

G'day David,

The base pod kits can be used with the walls, just not perfectly. You'll need to leave the lower loop on the walls unattached, so there might be a bit of flapping around. It's not perfect but it will work if you need it to. The kit is just meant to be a good starting point for customers getting a gazebo that might have a variety of needs for it. The sandbags might be a better option here and I'll pass that idea onto our web team. Thanks for pointing this out! 

G'day Vicki,

When at the lowest setting, the bottom of the canopy on the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo is 193cm from the ground. 

G'day Lorna,

If you click on the 'You might also like' tab below the image of the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo it will show you all of the compatible walls and accessories available to purchase.

G'day Ben, 

We've just double checked with the stock we have on the shop floor, and the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo comes with 8 pegs included. 

G'day Jackie,

Your Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo will hold up relatively well in the rain as it's seem sealed. You shouldn't expect to have any water leaking through the canopy itself.

G'day Jo,

You can find the replacement canopies for the Oztrail Deluxe 3.09 Gazeboes here.

G'day Peter,

The Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo comes with a 12 month warranty.

G'day Carly,

Yes, you can pack the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo down with the canopy still on, although we wouldn't necessarily recommend it. Packing it down with the canopy still on will reduce the lifetime of the gazebo.

G'day Dana,

Packed dimensions for the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo are 160L x 30W x 30H cm.

G'day Bob,

Packed dimensions for the Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo are 160L x 30W x 30H cm.

G'day Charles,

The Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo weighs 23kg and the Oztrail Commerical 3.0 Gazebo weights 24.5kg. The framework for both is the same, the difference is the strength of the canopy and that the Commerical Gazebo is tested and certified by Australian engineers to meet the Building Code of Australia for temporary structures. Our apologies for the error - we'll look to correct the weight listings on our website.

G'day Peter,

Oz Trail don't actually give a wind rating for thier gazebos. We'd suggest only using your gazebo in a light breeze as they do tend to catch the wind. Even then you might want to consider the Oz Trail Base Pod Kit for extra security. 

G'day Nory,

I'm pretty sure from your description that this is what you're after, if not let us know and we'll look into it further for you - https://www.snowys.com.au/scissor-action-strut-kit 

G'day Edan,

The Oztrail Deluxe 3.0 Gazebo does come with 4 guy ropes, 1 attached to each corner. I'd always recommend using the guys if you can as you never know when the wind will pick up!
