A retractable awning is like having air conditioning in your backyard – with studies showing it can be up to 20 degrees cooler under your awning. Plus, with an SPF rating of over 50, awnings block 99% of harmful UV rays and are actually recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation as an effective UVA and UVB ray protectant.
That means you can extend your outdoor living space while maximising comfort for your family, guests or customers thanks to protection against the elements.
What’s more, simply installing a retractable arm awning can help block UV rays before they penetrate your home – to prevent fading of indoor rugs, curtains and other furniture.
