Maintenance Tips for Igloo Sheds

Seasonal maintenance is all about performing regularly scheduled inspections for wear and tear caused by repeated use, harsh weather and other factors. Shipping containers and container covers are installed using a number of brackets and other components which need to be checked to prevent breakdowns and accidents. 

As always, preventive maintenance is the key to preventing sudden, expensive repairs. Here are the most important aspects to consider when inspecting igloo storage sheds: 

Check for Wear and Tear 

Container covers made from Australian PE fabric are renowned for their durability, but there’s always a chance that a sharp tool or external debris could cause a tear. Regularly scheduled inspections are the most effective way to catch and repair these tears before they become serious. The tear can often be treated using a repair tape that is highly effective. 

What’s equally important is checking the containers and components for signs of rust or corrosion. Rust prevention is of critical importance in difficult working environments such as mining, oil and gas, and construction. 

Rule out Major Repairs

Check the frame and cover for damage caused by heavy machinery or extreme weather. If left unaddressed, severe damage can lead to structural failure, which is why we recommend contacting your dome shelter supplier for expert repair services. 

Hire a Professional 

Although igloo sheds are relatively easy to maintain, there’s nothing quite like the assurance you get from a professional maintenance audit conducted by experts like Ezy Igloo.
