Several weeks ago we ordered a new retractable awning. It arrived last weekend, and a couple of my friends came over and helped me to put it up on Monday. It took several hours, but we got it up without a hitch. The awning goes over a small deck that we have off of the dining room. According to the compass, the deck faces north, but it never seems to be very shady, so it is quite warm out there. My wife has mentioned several times that she would sit out there on the deck more often if it wasn’t so hot out there, so I figured that this new awning just might do the trick.
So, the awning is up and functioning. It has a great little remote control device that makes it go in and out. Within seconds of the awning being extended, you can tell the difference in comfort! It does make the dining room darker, but I think it also helps to keep the house cooler, so that is a plus. I think we are going to be glad we got it!
