    Buying Guide: Grill Cover

    Grill covers are essential to protect your grill from rain, harsh sun, and snow, among others. But with so many options on the market, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one for your needs. In this buying guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know to about grill covers, so you can grill with confidence and protect your investment.

    Material

    The material of the cover should be water-resistant, thick, and durable enough to withstand outdoor exposure and temperature changes. Common materials used for grill covers include vinyl and polyester. Vinyl is a more durable material that is thicker than polyester and will hold up better against environmental elements. Polyester is often cheaper, lightweight, and easier to clean than vinyl but does not provide as much protection from rain or snow due to its thinner construction. Whatever material you choose, make sure it’s easy to clean and maintain.

    Ventilation

    Look for covers with ventilation systems or air vents to help reduce condensation build-up inside the cover and prevent mildew growth. Proper air flow will also keep your grill dry while in storage or when not in use.

    Weather-resistant Coating

    Choose covers with weather-resistant coatings that offer added protection against water damage. This non-toxic waterproofing treatment helps keep moisture away from your grill’s surface by creating an invisible barrier between the fabric of the cover and the elements outside.  Besides that, select one that offers UV protection to prevent fading and cracking of the fabric due to sunlight exposure over time. This feature is especially important if you plan on leaving your cover on all year long.

    Size

    It’s important to purchase a cover that fits your grill properly to ensure full coverage and protection from the elements. Generally, grill covers come in small, medium, large, and extra-large sizes. Measure your grill before purchasing a cover to make sure you select the right size for a snug fit.

    Fasteners

    A strong strap system is essential for providing secure coverage of your grill. Look for covers with straps or elastic hems that close tightly around the bottom of the grill to prevent flaps from blowing away or moisture from getting inside the cover during storms. The cover should have strong stitching that won’t come apart during use and adjustable straps for easy tightening during storage or transportation.
