Benefits of Awnings and Canopies
~ Residential ~
Fabric awnings and canopies create attractive, comfortable outdoor areas for people to gather,
protected from the sun. In addition, fabric structures provide cover during inclement weather,
and are more economical to build and maintain than comparable masonry and wood structures.
Awnings can reduce home cooling costs and save energy consumption.
A fabric awning can directly affect energy use by simply blocking the sun. Heat gain through windows is
one of the reasons that buildings need air conditioners. In some climates, homeowners can expect to save
up to 25% of your cooling energy just by using an awning.
Beautiful fabrics up your backyard appeal - blend your indoors and outdoors.
Decorative colors and designs in easy-to-maintain fabrics give you the ability to coordinate your furniture
and your awning with your indoor decor. These durable fabrics withstand the elements providing utility and
beauty to your outdoor space for many years.
Provide weather protection for your family.
Your family deserves the best. Their health is your number one priority. Protect them and enjoy the outdoors
at the same time with a beautiful, easy, home enhancement - an awning for your patio.
Your patio will be shaded from the hot sun and, depending on the awning fabric, provide outdoor protection
for your entire family on a rainy day.
A fabric awning can help extend your outdoor entertaining season and function as part of your landscape design.
In addition, awnings protect inside furnishings such as furniture, drapes and carpet from fading due to UV rays.
