Will Winter Weather Damage The Trampoline?

Will winter weather damage the trampoline? It's a question we get asked all the time. Even though we live in perpetually sunny Arizona, many of our trampolines and in-ground trampolines make their way to the snowy climates and their owners do wonder whether winter will damage or destroy the trampoline they've invested in.
Many trampoline manufacturers say that a trampoline can be used year round and that inclement weather won't harm it, but for those who live in harsh weather areas, you may want to take down and store your trampoline or you will at least want to cover it and protect it from the elements. If you don't take it down, you will want to inspect it regularly and clear off any standing snow, ice or water to assure it doesn't damage the mat or springs or cause mold growth.
