When you think about the job of patio umbrellas, you probably think about the protection they provide you from the sun, and you are right!

2.    Furniture Covers

When patio umbrellas don’t offer enough shade space for your furniture and you do not have a covered patio, consider purchasing patio covers. Often times people only think to cover their patio furniture during rainy and cold months but covering your patio furniture during the summer will protect it from the harsh sun which can do just as much damage as rain and snow. Another bonus to patio covers is when it comes time to enjoy your furniture, the frame and materials will be cool enough for immediate use.

3.    Protective Cleaner

Patio umbrellas and furniture covers are often the first things that are thought of when preparing your outdoor furniture for the summer heat. Protective cleaner on the other hand is frequently forgotten. What if you could have sunscreen for your patio furniture? There is a protective cleaner for that! These cleaners are one of the most simple, yet efficient ways at protecting patio furniture during the summer.

The summer is supposed to be one of the most fun times of the year! However, it can’t be if the sun is harmfully affecting your patio furniture.
