CANVAS FABRIC AWNINGS IN TAMPA BAY | CLEARWATER | ST PETERSBURG

Fixed Awnings and Canopies Residential - A stationary canvas awning generally consists of a rigid awning frame made from either welded metal (like steel or aluminum) or pipe pieces screwed together with threaded ends and a fabric awning cover available in a wide variety of patterns and colors. According to the newest Florida Building Code (Chapter 31), it is no longer acceptable to install an awning with a pipe-threaded frame that must be disassembled in order to remove the fabric awning cover. Instead, fabric (canvas) awning covers must be attached with either an easily removable lacing or a break-away staple-stitch method that allows the fabric to break free of the frame during periods of hurricane force winds.

At West Coast Awnings, we manufacture all of our new stationary fabric awnings using a welded aluminum awning frame and break-away staple stitch covers. This allows us to give the tightest possible canvas awning cover fit with the security of knowing that the fabric is designed to free itself from the awning frame to avoid damage to your home or the frame itself. In addition, the use of high quality 6000 series aluminum allows means that your West Coast Awnings canvas awning frame will never rust.

Improve the Energy Efficiency of your Home with a Fixed Canopy

Most people know that it’s important to protect your skin from the sun, but not everyone know that your home needs protecting too! Not just the exterior paint, but your interior décor and furnishings, too. The sun’s penetrating UV rays can quickly fade paint, wallpaper, soft furnishings, and even art, especially in the hot Florida climate. This will make your home look washed out, dull, and uninviting.

There are other considerations, too. The heat of the sun can make the home stuffy and uncomfortable. Often your only recourse is to turn the air conditioning up, and that can mean plenty of money spent on unnecessary energy costs. Unnecessary, because something as simple as a fixed canopy system can forever improve your home’s energy efficiency by blocking more than 60% of the sun’s heat from entering the home, further protecting your investments on your home interior and saving you money every month on cooling costs.
