does the bungalow handle snow?

0

Most customers do keep their Bungalows up year aroundin climate zones that incur winter snow. However, the main factor is snow load and whether you will be near your Bungalow during the winter as the Bungalows are not engineered for heavy snowloads. We have one in Lake Tahoe that gets a lot of snow but the owner lives there so she can just knock the snow off. Most of the snow slides off but it does catch on the brackets and can build up. We have another customer who has one in the woods outside Truckee that is unattended. They added additional rafters and collar ties and cross country ski to it in the winter but this was done at their own risk. If you are not near the Bungalow and you get snowstorms of less than 6 inches it would be okay. We also recommend that customers setup their Bungalows near trees to decrease their exposure to sun and snow.
