Why invest in a shade structure?

Why is shade important? The major cause of skin cancer is exposure to UV radiation from the sun. With good protection against UV radiation, most cases of skin cancer can be prevented.  A Shade structure is one of the best and easiest ways to protect against overexposure to UV radiation.

When the sun gets too warm, your shade structure provides a wonderful, comfortable space out of the hot sun. From backyards to balconies and rooftop terraces, any exposed outdoor space can benefit from a shade structure. Versus a fabric awning, a shade structure provides full sun screening, reducing heat under the shelter and fully reflecting the sun’s rays away from the living space underneath.

Your shade structure will create a lovely comfortable space for reading, lounging, or enjoying a snooze outdoors. Shade structures may be adjusted for partial sun, and they allow outdoor enjoyment even when it’s raining, by channeling rain to a built in drainage system.

Your shade structure enables you to add lighting, sound, PED connections and so much more to enhance your enjoyment of this controlled outdoor environment. Add heat, and your shade structure will extend your outdoor season into cool evenings and cooler seasons.

A shade structure naturally extends your children’s time outdoors, as well, allowing children to play longer, keeping play toys cool to the touch, and providing protection from harmful UV rays. Shade structures help protect whatever is underneath them including furniture and equipment, ensuring a lifetime of enjoyment from your furnishings.

Shade structures add value to your home, enhancing its attractiveness both to you and to the future buyer.
