Patio Shades
All Arizona residents know that we get a lot of sunshine here. A whole lot. While sunny days are great for enjoying the outdoors, they can also make your patio and other outdoor living spaces incredibly uncomfortable. We understand the value of your patio space, and we want to help you be able to use it at any time of the day, not just when the temperature permits. We would love to help you choose the perfect patio shade to create the outdoor oasis of your dreams.
Keeping the Temperature in Check
You may not have ever considered outdoor shades in the past. Most people think of their home’s interior when they are talking about shades, but patio sun shades can significantly reduce the temperature on your deck or patio. There is no amount of cool drinks that can make a day spent in 100 degree weather an enjoyable time. Fortunately, choosing the right patio shade can reduce the temperature by up to 20 degrees. An added bonus is that outdoor roller shades can help reduce your interior cooling costs by stopping the hot air before it enters your home.
Attractive UV Protection
We’re guessing you enjoy the patio furnishings and accents you purchased for your outdoor area. UV rays from the sun will damage and fade outdoor items even on cloudy days. On sunny days the damage will be even more extensive. Oasis® Patio Shades from Insolroll will block a large percent of the damaging rays, and they will look great while doing it.
Getting Rid of the Glare
Outdoor shades not only reduce temperature and UV exposure, but they also reduce glare. Imagine entertaining guests at midday or around sunset without having to wear sunglasses or shield your eyes with your hand. You will also be able to enjoy a book, work on a laptop or scroll through your phone without grappling with a harsh glare. Our staff will help you choose the perfect patio sunshades that will complement your outdoor furnishings without upstaging them.
You Can’t Put a Premium on Privacy
Whether you are sunbathing, relaxing with your spouse, or having a party, you don’t want the intrusive gazes of nosy passersby or neighbors making everyone uncomfortable. Your outdoor shades will increase your amount of daytime privacy without ruining your view of the outside world. The percent of openness of your chosen fabric will affect the amount of view-through. Privacy is especially important for those of you living on a golf course or near another busy area. Pro tip: Your patio shade will also protect you from rogue golf balls. Outdoor shades also save you from having to create shade with cumbersome umbrellas that provide limited shade and temperature regulation.
What’s Bugging You?
Grilling dinner on your patio is a wonderful way to spend an evening. Being on the menu for hungry mosquitoes is not. Outdoor shades provide significant protection from insects, and the less open your fabric is, the fewer insects you will have to battle.
Oasis® Patio Shades
Insolroll has been an industry leader of exterior sun shades since the 1980’s. The Oasis® Patio Shades line has something for everyone and every space. The 2600 line is perfect if you’re seeking an economic solution for a smaller outdoor area. You can block up to 97% of incoming heat while still maintaining a view.
The 2700 collection offers the option of motorized operation in addition to the traditional clutch and bead chain operating system. The line also offers a cable guide system that secures fabric and provides sway control on breeze days. Oasis® 2800 Patio Shades are the original design developed in 1986, and they continue to be the company’s best-selling and most versatile patio shade. The 2800 collection is ideal for larger outdoor areas and openings.
