How Can A Retractable Awning Help Me Reach My Goals in 2023?

It’s that time of year again! With a renewed sense of purpose and hope, you start the year ready to tackle new goals and projects. Did you know that adding a retractable awning to your home can help you reach your goals in 2023? Whether you are planning on saving money, connecting with family and friends more often, or improving your overall health, retractable awnings can help you reach that goal.

Saving Money

With costs soaring on many of our most basic needs, saving money on your electric bill can be especially helpful. With a retractable awning, you can reduce cooling costs in your home by up to 50%. In addition to that, your small investment will also help reduce wear and tear on your patio furniture and add value to your home!

Connecting With People

Connecting with friends and family is so important. If you hope to spend more time with loved ones in 2023, a retractable awning can add additional living space to your home. This added space is the perfect place to host dinners, game nights, and other events. Not only will you be able to host more people, but you will also have the great outdoors to provide the perfect scenery. 

Investing in Your Health

If your health is becoming a greater priority in 2023, you might be surprised by how much a retractable awning can help. Awnings block 90% of the sun’s damaging UVA and UVB rays. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends retractable awnings to help reduce your risk of developing skin cancer while still enjoying your outdoor spaces. Creating this additional, protected space for your home allows you to exercise, garden, and nurture new hobbies in your beautiful outdoor oasis. Who knew that becoming an awning owner could help your physical and mental health?

A Christmas Party to Remember: Holiday Hosting in Florida

Florida is known for its mild winters. Most days we enjoy temperatures in the 70s with a few cooler days sprinkled throughout the season. While families in other states huddle around the fire and stay indoors, Floridians can still host amazing parties in the great outdoors. This holiday season, host the perfect patio holiday party with these holiday hosting tips.

Warm Drinks

Consider having a few warm drink options available to your guests. A hot cocoa bar complete with marshmallows, sprinkles, and candy canes is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. You also can’t go wrong with classics like coffee, tea, and mulled cider. If you make the cider at home, you are guaranteed to fill the area with the delicious and warm holiday scents of cinnamon and clove. 

Make It Cozy

Adding soft pillows, throw blankets, candles, twinkling lights, and a fire pit can really transform your outdoor spaces for holiday gatherings. While it might not get that chilly, if your celebrations are in the evening, your guests will appreciate the extra warmth and coziness. 

Make It Fun

Have a few holiday games and activities planned for your party. Board games, ugly Christmas sweater contests, karaoke, and crafts are great ways to keep your guests entertained as you celebrate the season together. 

Make It Safe 

A retractable awning provides you and your guests with protection from 99% of the sun’s UVA and UVB rays. Even in winter, the Florida UV index can climb pretty high, and no one wants a sunburn for Christmas! Hosting a party under your awning also ensures that you and your guests have protection from light rain as well. In the evening, your awning creates the perfect space to hang holiday decor and lights!   

At Authority Home Solutions, we are passionate about helping homeowners create beautiful and safe outdoor spaces that they can enjoy for many years to come. For over 10 years we have been providing Ocala, The Villages, Gainesville, and the surrounding areas with elegant, functional, and affordable retractable awnings that extend outdoor spaces with style. We also offer storm protection and EasyShades for your home as well. Contact us today for a free estimate. Happy Holidays from your friends at Authority Home Solutions!

The addition of white and cream awning shades is sure to help many awning owners to customize an awning for their home or business that they will love for many years to come.

Extended Projection

SunSetter’s awnings extend out from 10’2” and 11’8” typically, but now they have added a 13’1’ option for extended projection. This additional coverage allows home and business owners to create even larger outdoor spaces under the protection of their SunSetter awnings.

How to Safely Clean Your Fabric Awnings

Fabric awnings are a beautiful and affordable way to add to your home’s outdoor spaces. For a small investment, they can provide you and your family with protection and shade for many years to come. Authority Home Solutions’ quality retractable Sunsetter Awnings are water, mold, and UV resistant, so they require far less cleaning than their stationary counterparts. Occasionally, however, dirt, grease, bird droppings, insects, leaf tannins, or tree sap can collect on the topside or underside. To protect and extend the life of your fabric awning, we recommend that residential retractable awning owners clean their awnings at least once a year. Commercial awnings should be cleaned more frequently. There are professional cleaning services in the area, but if you choose to care for your awning on your own, we have a few tips to help you do this safely.

1. Always begin your awning cleaning by brushing or sweeping off all the debris and dust that may have settled on the topside. Make sure to clean any rain gutters that are directly above your awning as well.

2. We recommend using a mild, eco-friendly liquid soap and a soft-bristle brush to cleanse your fabric. If you choose to use a pressure washer, be sure to use the lowest setting possible so that you don’t damage your awning.

3. When cleaning the top side of your awning, begin at the bottom edge and work your way up using sweeping motions.

4. When rinsing the topside of your awning, rinse from top to bottom.

5. The underside of your awning could collect some grease if you frequently use a barbeque grill under it. The same mild grease-cutting soap that you used on the topside should do the trick on any grease residue.

6. Allow your awning to dry completely before you retract it.

In between cleanings, you can hose the topside of your awning, and use a broom to sweep the underside. It’s also a good idea to inspect your frames from time to time for signs of rusting.

If you are considering adding a beautiful awning to your residential or commercial space, you can count on Authority Home Solutions to provide you with the best customer service and quality products. For over ten years we have provided retractable awnings to Ocala, the Villages, Gainesville, and the surrounding areas. Contact us today to schedule a free in-home demonstration.
