All About Awnings
Fabric awnings add beauty and charm to the exterior of your home or business. They allow people to enjoy the outdoors without worrying about excessive heat, damage from UV rays, or a summer shower. Fabric awnings also protect your deck, window, patio, terrace, or business entrance. The increased shading provided by the awning stops the sun from damaging or fading your carpet, furniture, drapes, or window displays.
Another benefit of adding an awning is that it can decrease interior temperatures up to 15 degrees which can save you money on your energy bills! On a south-facing window, an awning can reduce solar heat gain by 65%. On a western-facing window, the reduction is 77%.
A fabric awning can be made to suit your decor needs as they basically come in an unlimited array of colors and styles. Awnings can be stationary, freestanding, or retractable.
