Retractable Awnings Provide Beauty And Savings

Retractable deck and patio awnings not only add beauty and style to your home, they also save energy and cut your energy costs. According to a study conducted by the American Society of Heating and Air Conditioning Engineers, solar radiation penetrating through glass is responsible for around 20% of the demand placed on your air conditioning unit.
Blocking The Sun’s Rays
The additional shade that can be produced by retractable awnings actually prevents the solar radiation from penetrating your windows, easing the burden on your air conditioning unit and saving you energy costs. The outside shade products that Ramapo Awning Company installs substantially increase the energy you save by reducing heat during the period of the day when the sun would otherwise bake your home with its most intense rays.
Save On Cooling Costs
Retractable awnings also provide significant savings on cooling costs and peak electrical demand by reducing solar gain through glass doors. While the range of energy saved may vary depending on the number, size, and orientation of windows and glass doors that a home may have, the fact that energy is saved by blocking the sun’s heat penetrating through glass remains an attractive attribute of retractable awnings.
Control Your Indoor Air Temperature
Saving energy year round, not only in the summer months, is an added benefit to having retractable awnings installed on your home. Unlike having fixed awnings over your windows and doors, these awnings can be retracted in order to allow the heat of the sun to radiate through your glass, adding heat to your home thereby reducing the demand on your heating system.
Quality Matters
Retractable awnings give the homeowner complete control over when to use, and not to use, shade. As the very nature of these products is to be manipulated and moved, it is important to invest in a system that is of quality construction and installed by experienced professionals.
