Benefits of Installing an Insulated Patio Cover

Professionally installed Insulated Patio Cover

Temperature Control

Insulated patio covers help regulate the temperature of the space beneath them.   This is especially important in the Charleston, SC area.  Many homeowners find that after installing a sheet metal patio cover, they have only compounded the heat problem, turning their porch into an oven!  Insulated panels keep the ceiling cool and provide shade during hot days, reducing the heat that enters your home and making the outdoor area more comfortable.  Some patio furniture when exposed to the South Carolina sun can heat up so much that it cannot be used.  Children’s toys, wading pools and even the dog’s water bowl can be too hot to use.  After Cool Shade installs your new insulated patio cover, you will surely feel the difference.  

Energy Efficiency

By blocking the sun’s rays, insulated patio covers can contribute to energy savings. Your home’s cooling system may not have to work as hard to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature, potentially reducing your energy bills.

Extended Outdoor Living

An insulated cover installed by Cool Shade allows you to use your outdoor space in various weather conditions. Whether it’s a hot summer day or a rainy evening, you can still enjoy your patio without being directly exposed to the elements.

UV Protection

The cover provides protection from harmful UV rays, helping to prevent damage to outdoor furniture, flooring, and other items. It also offers a level of sun protection for you and your family.

Increased Home Value

An aesthetically pleasing and functional outdoor space can add to the overall value of your home. Potential homebuyers may see an insulated patio cover as a desirable feature.  Because of this fact, your decision to install a Cool Shade Patio Cover is a wise investment and not just a purchase. 

Reduced Maintenance

With an insulated patio cover in place, you may find that you need to clean and maintain your outdoor furniture and living space less frequently, as they are better protected from the elements.  

Easy to Clean

Both the ceiling and roof are flat and smooth which make it easy to clean.  If you have trees near by, you will be happy to know that clean up is a snap!  Just a blower is all you need.  If you have a two story home, you may be able to lean out the upper story window and blow the leaves and pine needles off.   A good practice to keep things shiny is to bring the Turtle Was carwash bucket out back after washing your car and use a pole brush to wash the posts, gutter and side fascia.  Add bleach and wash the roof to keep algae and mold down. 

Versatility

Cool Shade Patio Covers offers various designs and styles, allowing you to choose one that complements your home’s architecture and fits your aesthetic preferences.
