YES in fact, by shading your windows and doors, a Canvas Factory Awning can save you up to 25% on cooling bills and create a more comfortable atmosphere that is 10-12% cooler.
Today's fabrics are generally warranted for five years. With proper maintenance and care, they can last even longer. The metal frames, when properly built, will last a lifetime.

One of the most important things that you can do to keep your awnings looking like new is to keep them as clean as you possibly can. We suggest that a couple of times a year, on a nice warm, sunny day, you take the pressure nozzle off of your garden hose, and by using your thumb only, you give the awnings a cool rinse. DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER, CLEANING CHEMICALS, OR HOT WATER. If the local birds admire your awning as much as you do and decide to leave a little something on your awning-don't worry. Just let the mess completely dry and then remove it by gently brushing the soiled area with a SOFT brush (such as an old toothbrush), then give the awning a cool rinse and let it dry. DO NOT SCRUB WET.
