Do you feel like this unforgiving Australian heat won’t end? Do you feel like you have nowhere to go during this pandemic? Then it’s probably time for you to invest in shade sails and enjoy the outdoors in the comfort of your home.
What is a Shade Sail?
Imagine if a sailor ends up shipwrecked on a desert island. The logical thing is for him to construct a shade using the ship’s sails and the wreckage. That’s a shade sail. Of course, today, the sails are made from Architectural Grade materials, and the foundations are as sturdy as possible.
You might think that you don’t need something as weird as boat equipment being used as shade, but there are reasons why the shade sail has been used in Australia for more than 20 years.
Beat the Australian Heat (And Everything That Comes with It)
Of course, something like a shade sail would protect you from the sun. We don’t need to explain how treacherous the hot and dry climate can be for you in Australia. Words won’t compare to your experience after all.
“But how bad is the sun? I can withstand it!”
No, you can’t (especially during these times). You may withstand the searing hot feeling against your skin, but the Medical Journal of Australia highly suggests that you seek shade. And even if you do, you need truly effective shade as Ultraviolet radiation can power through normal shade structures.
Luckily, shade sails now come with UV inhibitors that protect you from the sun’s harmful UV radiation. If you don’t want the risk of nasty conditions like erythema, cataracts, and skin cancer, shade sails are what you need.
Save Electricity (And Your Money)
Did you know that the average household power consumption has doubled during the height of the pandemic? That means that the cost shoots up too. You may have also noticed the erratic temperature in your homes. You may feel a little cosy during breakfast, but after that, the temperature rises, your mood rolls downhill, and your bills go way up because of the air conditioning.
Shade sails can address your comfort and money problems at the same time. They’re great for keeping your interior cool by reducing the glare. The best shade sails are now equipped with a quality design that reduces ambient temperature around the sail, reducing the heat absorbed by your walls, windows, and doors.
Enjoy Life Outdoors
Having shade sails can keep you sane. Imagine getting stuck within the same four walls day in and day out. With shade sails, you can spend all day outside your lawn and enjoy the outdoor experience the world throws at you.
You can have lunch with your family, have a cold one while watching TV, you can read a good book while breathing fresh air, and you can watch your kids play outside like every kid used to. You can even find a new hobby, like painting, woodworking, and gardening. Imagine doing all of this outdoors. And you can even have shade sails as a hobby! DIY shade sails are growing in popularity, and you might join the club one day.
Want to Have That Shade Sail Now?
Now, remember that the pandemic combined with summer is not that bad. Shade sails are the key for you to enjoy Australia in its most angry moments.
Who would have thought that a product seemingly made by a sailor shipwrecked in a desert (somehow) can lead to so many amazing things for Australia?
