Superior Solar Protection
Your Durasol SunShelter® Elite awning provides a high level of UV protection, allowing everyone to stay outdoors longer without concern of the harmful effects of the sun. As an added benefit, your Durasol awning will also prevent fading of carpet and furniture. You’ll enjoy worry-free, outdoor living and experience elegant, on-demand solar protection with easy, push-button convenience.
Reduced Energy Costs
Durasol retractable awnings effectively filter the sun’s light, creating a cool and relaxed environment. Solar heat gain is greatly reduced by limiting the amount of direct and indirect sunlight that enters a window or door. The use of fabric awnings will reduce solar heat gain by up to 77 percent and lower indoor temperatures by 10-15 degrees.
Front Bar Wrap
Wrap the front bar with fabric, minimizing the visibility of the framework. Exclusively available on the SunShelter Elite
Drop Valance
An optional drop valance provides protection from early morning and late afternoon sun. Our drop valance rolls up into our front bar enclosure and is controlled by your choice of hand-crank or touch-of-a-button, automated operation.
