How should I use and maintain this cover?

2. Drape the cover so that the dome and base are both enclosed, ensuring edges are aligned and snug.
3. Avoid slack or loose areas that wind can catch.
4. Periodically lift or remove the cover to ventilate and reduce moisture accumulation.

What are the benefits and potential drawbacks?
Benefits:
• Comprehensive protection for both the dome and base of the oven, rather than just the top.
• Breathable design helps reduce trapped humidity, which can cause mold or corrosion.
• Tailored, full-fit design reduces flapping, wind damage, and improves aesthetics.
Considerations / cautions:
• Must only be applied when the oven is completely cool — covering while hot can damage the cover or the oven.
• Long-term exposure to UV and weather may gradually degrade fabric or protective coatings.
• Moisture can still accumulate in humid climates — intermittent airing is recommended.
• Ensure that any attachments, flues, or accessories don’t interfere with the cover’s fit.
