The addition of awnings can give your home additional lounging areas free from the harshness of the elements. As long as you know what to look for, they are great additions to any property and their cost is definitely worth their use.
Before you buy one, however, consider these four factors to choose the right retractable awnings for your home:
Both of these factors can determine how much heat your awnings can retain. Lighter colors, for instance, trap less heat under direct sunlight and may be more attractive to homeowners looking to add a fresh, inviting vibe to their homes.
Aesthetics are important if you don’t want your awnings to stick out like a sore thumb when set against the rest of your home. Look at different styles, such as waterfall, semi-circular, or dome-style awnings, to get the best fit for your home.
Consider retractable awnings if you want to have a more dynamic look. You can take them out only whenever the need arises. However, the permanence of non-retractable ones may be preferable depending on the homeowner’s taste.
The angle at which you install your awnings can have a direct impact on its overall performance in the long run. As a rule of thumb, most installers suggest the size of awnings should be at about 65 percent to 75 percent for windows facing either east or west.
