UV Protection
With the harsh Texas heat, keeping furniture fabrics from blanching in the sun can seem like a full-time job. UV rays are also known as a leading cause of skin cancer, so limiting the amount of UV radiation you, your family, and your furnishings are exposed to is vital for long-term safety.
Outdoor shades from brands like Progressive Screens are available in several grades of UV protection, from open-weaved insect screens offering 50% protection to privacy and solar screens with a tighter fabric weave that blocks anywhere from 80%–97% of UV rays.
Privacy
In addition to UV protection, outdoor shades can add incredible privacy to your outdoor entertainment spots. Daytime or evening, you can enjoy your patio spaces without worrying about anyone being able to see what you’re doing. You and your guests can watch the big game on your outdoor TV, enjoy music, or sip your favorite beverages without your activities being privy to nosy neighbors.
Insect Control
One of the unfortunate realities of living in the Texas Hill Country is sharing our area with mosquitos and other pesky insects. Insect mesh screens have a larger, more open weave than the sun-blocking options, so you can still enjoy visibility and ventilation while keeping bug bites at bay.
Climate Control
Clear vinyl panels will let you extend your living spaces outside if you’d like to add year-round outdoor entertainment to your backyard. In cooler months, you can reduce heat loss; in warmer months, you can contain cooler air. You can choose this clear vinyl option as a standalone system or install them as part of a dual-shade system with another type of automated outdoor shade.
Easy Operation
Some homeowners believe outdoor shades have to be a manually taxing addition to patio spaces, but that’s simply not the case. One of the benefits of Progressive Screens’ outdoor shades is the vast array of remote options available, plus smartphone app operation. Pair this intuitive operation with the patented MagnaTrack system, and typical issues such as fabric re-wrapping, hangups, and misalignment are a thing of the past.
