Awnings are some of the most beneficial features homeowners and businesses can take advantage of when they want to add value, aesthetics, and functionality to their property. Here at the Van Nuys Awning Co.®, we can provide many different awnings of various shapes, colors, and sizes, all with numerous options to help ensure that you have the perfect awning for your property. Recently, we partnered with Sol-Lux, the providers of some of the best awnings around. In today’s blog, we thought we’d go over some of the benefits that a Sol-Lux awning can provide you as well as some of the amazing features Sol-Lux awnings can offer.
Smart Awnings
One of the coolest features of the Sol-Lux awning system is that they’re smart awnings. What’s a smart awning you ask? An awning system that extends all by itself. One of the main reasons we use awnings is to keep the sun’s rays from heating or damaging our property. Traditional retractable awnings can help do the same job, but remembering to extend them can be a chore in and of itself. Permanent window awnings can also help, but they stay extended 24/7 and can be damaged when there’s inclement weather. Smart awnings from Sol-Lux extend and retract automatically when they sense sunlight, or a lack thereof. They can also retract when they detect high winds, helping to keep your awnings safe.
Solar Powered
Solar power is one of the most popular forms of renewable energy sources, especially here in sunny California. Wouldn’t it be nice if your new smart awnings were also powered by that giant glowing ball in the sky? With Sol-Lux awnings, you don’t have to worry about plugging your electric awnings in or connecting them to your home’s electricity as they’re all solar powered. The professionals at Van Nuys Awning Co. will install your new Sol-Lux awnings so that the solar cells will be able to absorb as much of the sun’s rays as possible. Help keep your home cool the green way, with an electric awning system from Sol-Lux.
Highly Customizable
Don’t you hate how some awning companies don’t allow you to customize your new window awnings? Whether you’re trying to match the color of your home, or you’re looking for that unique aesthetic for your residence, the Van Nuys Awning Co. and Sol-Lux can help provide customizable window awnings for your home. With numerous awning fabric color options to choose from, you’re sure to find a color that you love. Sol-Lux awnings can also fit all kinds of windows. From the smallest feature to the largest window, our experts can help create and install the perfect Sol-Lux smart awning for your home.
Year-Round Functionality
While it stays pretty warm here in California, at least compared to other states, there are a few months out of the year that can get a little cold. With wind and rain as constant factors, you may feel that investing in a retractable awning system may not be as wise an investment as it may seem to be. However, with a Sol-Lux automatic awning system, you can rest assured knowing your electric awning is safe to use any time of the year. Sol-Lux awnings can detect when the sun is out, but they can also detect when high winds and harsh weather may be happening as well. Your Sol-Lux awning can open and close itself as needed in order to keep itself safe from things like wind and hail.
