Huish's creates, manufactures, and repairs traditional canvas retractable awnings. These coverings provide additional shade and style to your home.
“Awnings and roller shades save cooling energy use during the summer by reducing unwanted solar heat gain through windows. However, if they are deployed at other times of the year, they can lead to increased heating energy use by blocking the ‘free heat’ of the sun.”
(“The Impact on Energy Use and Peak Demand of Awnings and Roller Shades in Residential Buildings,” Yu Joe Huang, White Box Technologies, Moraga, CA 94556, July 2012)
Custom retractable awnings can be extended when you want to block out the sun's rays and provide more shade. They can also be retracted when there is wind or when there is less sunlight.
Motorized custom retractable awnings can make it even easier to extend/retract the canvas awning. Sensors can automate the process by retracting a canvas awning when there is excess wind or extending the canvas awning when more shade is needed.
