UV protection

Protect homeowners and help them enjoy the outdoors at the same time with a beautiful, easy, home enhancement - an awning for deck or patio!

PROVIDE SHADE – Awnings and canopies will shade a deck from the sun, and provide outdoor protection on rainy days.

PROTECT FURNISHINGS – In addition, canopies and awnings protect inside furnishings such as furniture, drapes and carpet from fading due to UV rays.

AVOID HEAT EXPOSURE – Awnings that shade windows, decks and patios create an environment that allows homeowners to enjoy outdoor activities while avoiding excessive heat, sun and UV exposure.

PROVIDE UV PROTECTION – Some awning fabrics have been endorsed by The Skin Cancer Foundation, an international organization dedicated to the prevention of skin cancer, for their ability to block harmful UV rays.

Did You Know?
The strongest rays of the day occur between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Most sun damage occurs as a result of incidental exposure during day-to-day activities, not at the beach. One of the best ways
to protect a family from the sun is to cover up and shield skin from UV rays.

 

"Beyond just adding aesthetic value to your home, awnings are a great way to make your outdoor space more functional,” says awnings professional, Michelle Sahlin. “People want to spend more time outdoors on their decks and patios. There’s a big trend in home improvement to create products and spaces that extend the amount of time you can spend outdoors in a variety of weather conditions.”
