Life Under the Shade

Like Mother, Like Daughter – Popsicles under the Shading of Eclipse

Sitting on the front porch always brings a smile to your face. Not only because you are cooler and protected from the harmful UV rays of the sun, but also because it reminds you of your childhood and the many summer afternoons you came up the street, walking back from summer camp programs and saw your mother sitting on the front porch, under the awning waiting for you. She didn’t have a glass of cold lemonade or milk and cookies, but there was a reason for that. Any minute, with just enough time for a hug and a hand wash, […]

Eclipse Shading Systems® – a Family Tradition

It’s time to get your outdoor spring-cleaning going, so you rake out the brush from around the shrubbery and wash the deck. Maybe you’ll give it a new coat of paint this year.

Shading your Small Office Building Reduces Indoor Temperatures

You transitioned to a new job last fall and work in a cozy small office building with a few other small companies. You loved the sun on winter afternoons because it warmed your office space, but now that spring is here, it’s getting a little too warm. Thoughts of the summer months without shading reminded you of the time the edge of your computer screen and the plastic lamp began to melt from the sun glare. It was on your mind to ask the boss about some shading for those days when you ran into a coworker coming back inside […]
