The top 5 benefits that come with choosing a retractable awning over a stationary awning: 1. User Choice With a stationary awning, you're stuck with shade 100% of the time. With a retractable awning, you get the flexibility to choose when you want your area shaded or when you want to soak in the sun. Whether you are shading your deck, patio, or pergola - retractable awnings give you the luxury of choosing when you want to be shaded or not. 2. Longer Life Span Due to the nature of their extended exposure to the element, stationary awnings are much more prone to weather damage, faded fabrics from sun exposure, and dirt, debris, and animal damage. Retractable awnings on the other hand have increased protection from the elements. When it storms, you can bring them in. When you're not using your patio awning, you can retract it in. 3. Protection Retractable awnings offer UV protection, privacy protection, and because you can add drop shades and adjust the pitch the way you want it, they also protect your furniture from sun damage. Fixed awnings only shade a portion of your area, and when the sun changes, you're stuck with whatever angle the awning has. A retractable awning on the other hand can be angled exactly how you need it to cover your porch and furniture, while also adding a drop shade for additional shade throughout the sunniest parts of the days. Win-win! 4. Convenience With the click of the button you get the sun or shade you want in a retractable awning. It truly doesn't get easier than that! 5. Add-Ons With a retractable awning you get the options to add on an additional front drop screen, a cassette that fully protects your awning when retracted, manual or motorized use, a wide variety of beautiful colors, a wind sensor for extra protection, and so much more.

With so many outdoor shading options, how do you choose?

When it comes to enhancing comfort, energy efficiency, and style in your home, exterior solar shades are a smart investment. They help block heat and glare from the sun before it reaches your windows—keeping interiors cooler and protecting furniture from UV damage. To make the best choice for your space, here are the top three things to consider before buying: 1. Opacity Take time before purchasing to decide how much view you want to maintain, how much light you want to enter past your shade. South and west-facing windows often benefit from lower openness to combat intense afternoon sun, while east-facing areas might do fine with higher openness for soft morning light. 2. Manual or Motorized This is completely your choice! Do you want your shades to be controlled by the click of a button, or do you prefer a manual feature? Motorized options are great for large or hard-to-reach windows and can often be programmed or integrated with smart home systems. Manual options are great for smaller, easy to reach shades. 3. Color and Design Before purchasing, it's great to consider the color of fabric that will look best with your home. At SunSaver, we offer various options to ensure your style will integrate smoothly with your home. Exterior solar shades can make a huge difference in the comfort and efficiency of your home. By considering openness, functionality, and design, you’ll be better equipped to choose shades that not only look great but also work hard for you all year long.

With the arrival of spring sunshine and warmer days, it's the perfect time to give your retractable awning a little TLC! April and May are ideal months for a quick awning refresh to keep your awning looking fresh and working like a charm all season long. Here’s a simple way to clean your awning at home: 1. Gently brush off loose debris or leaves. 2. Check for bird nests or anything that may have found a cozy home over the winter. 3. Mix a mild dish soap with warm water and use a soft cloth or sponge to wipe the fabric. 4. Be sure not to scrub too hard—gentle pressure is best to avoid damaging the fabric. 5. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry fully before retracting. Cleaning your awning now can really help extend the life of your fabric and keep it looking great year after year.
