We can start the process with as little as a few photos from you, and some approximate sizes. And between us we can design your external shading requirements.
Fact Flash
Keeping cool and protected over the summer months
A properly installed, high quality shade sail, canopy or awning can significantly reduce the temperature of an outdoor space on hot, sunny days, by up to 30%.
By blocking out 95% of the sun’s UV rays and reflecting solar radiation a quality canopy will not only keep you shaded, and protect you from direct sunlight, but it will also prevent the sunlight hitting the ground, thus reducing the amount of heat absorbed.
A breathable fabric will also allow any heat that has accumulated under the sail to escape as the hot air rises through the fabric. If the canopy has been installed with a slight slope or curvature then it will encourage the air beneath to flow freely, creating a natural ventilation and a cooler environment.
