HELP! My TV mount got wet when I left it in the rain!

Let’s break down why Zebozap mounts are built to withstand the elements, what you should do if your mount gets wet, and how to ensure it stays in top condition.

Leaving your TV mount out in the rain can understandably cause a bit of panic. Electronics and water are usually a recipe for disaster, and while most people take precautions to protect their TVs from the elements, it’s easy to forget about the mount itself. If you’re using a Zebozap outdoor TV mount, you can breathe a sigh of relief. 

Why Zebozap Mounts Are Weatherproof

Zebozap outdoor TV mounts are specifically designed to handle the rigors of outdoor use. Rain, snow, heat, and even wind are no match for their durable construction. These mounts are made with corrosion-resistant materials, such as powder-coated steel and rust-proof hardware, which ensure that exposure to moisture won’t compromise their structural integrity or functionality.

Additionally, Zebozap mounts undergo rigorous testing to meet outdoor weatherproofing standards. This means they can safely support your TV on pillars, posts, and walls, even when faced with unpredictable weather conditions.

What to Do If Your TV Mount Gets Wet

If your Zebozap TV mount has been left in the rain, follow these steps to ensure it’s still in perfect working order:

1. Inspect the Mount
   Check the mount and its components for visible damage, such as rust, loose screws, or structural wear. Thanks to its weatherproof design, Zebozap mounts are unlikely to sustain damage, but it’s always good to double-check.
   
   

2. Dry It Off
   Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away excess water from the mount. Pay special attention to the joints, screws, and other hardware to prevent water from pooling in any crevices.
   
   

3. Check Moving Parts
   Zebozap mounts often feature swiveling and tilting functions. Ensure these mechanisms still move smoothly. If they feel stiff or sticky, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to restore mobility.
   
   

4. Reinstall Your TV (If Removed)
   If you removed your TV during the rainstorm, carefully reinstall it once the mount is completely dry. Make sure all screws and straps are secure before powering on the TV.

Long-Term Care Tips for Your Outdoor TV Mount

To keep your Zebozap mount in optimal condition, follow these maintenance tips:

• Regular Cleaning:
  Wipe down your mount periodically with a damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or pollen that may accumulate over time.
  
  
• Inspect Hardware:
  Check screws and straps for tightness every few months. Replace any components that show signs of wear.
  
  
• Use a TV Cover:
  While Zebozap mounts are weatherproof, protecting your TV with a waterproof cover ensures both your mount and your television last longer.
  
  
• Store During Off-Season:
  If you live in an area with harsh winters and don’t plan to use your outdoor TV, consider removing the mount and storing it indoors until spring.
