Terraces extend the living space to the outside and serve as a natural retreat. For this reason, they should ideally be usable at all times and kept at a pleasant temperature. If patios do not have sun protection, UV rays reach the outdoor area unhindered.
This causes the surrounding air and the patio floor to heat up, which can make the patio unusable, especially during the warm summer months. A suitable sun shading system is the ideal solution for this, providing a pleasant climate even on hot summer days.
A patio roof - whether made of glass, aluminum or wood - offers good protection from the weather and is often part of the architectural design, but only provides limited protection from the sun's rays. Transparent glass roofing allows UV radiation to reach the outside living space almost unhindered. Solid constructions can shade the patio, but only if the sun is directly above the roofing. Even aluminum or wooden patio covers offer no protection from lateral sunlight.
The solution to this is additional lateral sun protection for the patio roofing, such as wind-stable vertical awnings - also known as Textile Screens. With such sun protection systems, the patio can be shaded from all sides as required, preventing the patio area from heating up uncomfortably.
High-quality Textile Screens not only improve the climate on the terrace, but also offer a wide range of benefits:
Privacy protection for windows from unwanted views
Weather protection from rain, hail and snow
Protection from wind - in light draughts or strong gusts
Permanent view to the outside
Thanks to their optional transparent material, Textile Screens protect against wind and weather while still allowing you to see out. Even when the sun protection is lowered, the patio remains a feel-good place close to nature. Textile Screens make it possible to use the patio at any time during the warm spring and summer months by protecting it from the heat and wind.
When choosing the right sun protection system, care should be taken to ensure that the system is tailored to individual needs. Although modern vertical awnings are ideal for patio shading, there is not just one perfect solution for everyone. You should definitely consider these points when choosing your patio shading:
If you value ease of use, you should opt for electric sun shading for your patio cover. Electric systems can be conveniently controlled at the touch of a button or integrated into a Smart Home for maximum convenience. Suitable systems for this include Somfy TaHoma, Loxone or KNX.
Electric Textile Screens can be connected to weather sensors or timers for even more efficiency and convenience in everyday life. With an intelligent system, the sun protection opens and closes exactly when it makes the most sense.
Depending on where you live, wind protection is one of the most important aspects of being able to use the patio comfortably at all times. Modern Textile Screens with Zip technology have a wind stability of up to 120 km/h.
In addition to functional protection, design also plays a key role in the choice of sun protection. The material and color of the curtain can often be freely selected for Textile Screens. With the large selection of colors from the ROMA color world, sun shading systems can be optimally adapted to the existing architecture or set creative accents.
If you want to spend a lot of time on your patio in summer, you benefit not only from protection from the heat, but also from insects. With modern Textile Screens, insect protection can be integrated or lowered separately from the sun protection - just as you need it.
Different fabric types and transparency levels allow you to customize the privacy screen for patio roofs. The Textile Screens can be selected individually for all sides of the patio - for example, opaque towards the street, but transparent towards the garden so that the view of nature is maintained.
Sun protection for patio roofs can be installed when the patio is built or retrofitted as required. ROMA Front-Mounted Textile Screens are suitable for both options and can be flexibly retrofitted to the existing roofing.
ROMA vertical awnings offer tailor-made sun protection for patio roofs. They combine effective UV and heat protection with high wind stability thanks to modern zip technology. They can be controlled either by radio or via a Smart Home system and can adapt automatically to the position of the sun and the weather.
Different fabrics and colors allow for individual design. This turns your patio into a comfortable retreat that can be used all year round, is functionally protected and perfectly matched to your architecture.
