Troubleshooting
Tunnel cover is loose or sagging
Ensure the cover is pulled taut during assembly and that the ground skirt is securely entrenched. Check all tensioning points and re-secure if necessary.
Frame appears unstable in wind
Verify that all bracing bars (roof and corner diagonals) are correctly installed and tightened. Consider using the separately sold Ground Anchor Kits for increased stability.
Difficulty operating zippers
Check for any obstructions in the zipper track. Lubricate the zipper with a silicone-based lubricant or graphite pencil for smoother operation.
Condensation inside the tunnel
Increase ventilation by opening more netted window vents. Ensure adequate airflow and avoid overwatering plants inside the tunnel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Assembly of the Pro+ White Poly Tunnel requires careful attention to the instructions provided by Crocodile Trading. Ensure you have a level site for installation. The frame is fully galvanised steel, and the cover is a heavy-duty rip-stop material. The ground skirt should be dug into the soil for maximum stability. We recommend having at least two people for assembly, particularly for raising the frame and fitting the cover.
Compatibility:
This tunnel is designed as a standalone structure. While compatible with most standard gardening practices, it's recommended to use separately available accessories like Ground Anchor Kits for enhanced security in adverse weather conditions. Ensure adequate space around the tunnel for the ground skirt to be properly entrenched.
Care:
- Cleaning: The cover can be cleaned with mild soap and water using a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material. The frame can be wiped down with a damp cloth.
- Maintenance: Regularly check the cover for tears and the frame for any signs of damage, especially after strong winds. Tighten any loose fittings as needed.
- Ventilation: Open window vents during warm or humid weather to prevent overheating and reduce the risk of fungal diseases. Close vents during cold nights to retain heat.
- Winter Storage (Optional): While built for durability, consider removing the cover during prolonged periods of heavy snow or extreme weather if not actively in use, to prevent excessive weight stress. Replacement covers and frame parts are available if needed.
