Cover your Weber Grill

Grill covers are very beneficial. If you store your Weber charcoal or gas grill outside than you will want to protect it from the elements. The use of a grill cover can do this for you. Even if stored in a garage or shed you can use a cover to keep dust off the grill or to help avoid scratches. As most gas grills are made up of metals that may draw rust, they can be harmed by the accumulation of moisture on the surfaces.

By covering your gas grill you not only add safety of your grill from any damage if something falls on it or a heavy object is placed on it. But a grill cover also increases its durability and efficiency. If you use these covers, your grill will remain in excellent condition years after year. A grill cover used on a gas grill will also keep the igniter in good shape. Too much moisture will cause the igniter not to work. One last thing about using a cover, it will help keep animals and other bugs out of the grill when not in use.

Picking the right Weber grill cover is very important. Don't be fooled by a generic brand grill cover. The generic brand is usually a lot thinner and cheaper material than what is used by Weber. A generic grill cover will rip easily and not fit the grill properly. But if you buy a Weber cover for your Weber grill you are guaranteed to get a cover made to fit your grill perfectly. If you are spending extra money on a top of the line grill don't go cheap on the cover to protect it.
