How hard to take down and put up if properly tensioned? I’m debating a 8×12 (easier take down, open sky on cooler days) or 12×16 (more shade).
I have 12 width 24 length what the recommeted size?
larger sizes and grommet spacings offered custom sizing available?
How do you use the 12’ cables in installation? Are there any diagrams for installation?
If we have the dimensions of our driveway, would you be able to help us cover it with a combination of triangle sails? We are struggling to figure out the sizes we need.
We have shade sales on our Rooftop Bar at The Vendue I am looking to replace. Do you sell shade sails with the cut out slots to allow wind to pass through?
Great advice. I am looking to shade a 3mX10m area, would that be too long for a single shade or should I break it up in to sections?
Can you special order a shade?
“Just a question…I’m considering installing sail shades. Wondering about high winds. Here in Arizona, we have the summer monsoons which have very strong winds. Any thoughts on this?”
I have a 24 above ground pool. I plan on putting a 20 rectangular shade sail over the Pool. I was planning on sinking(24’) a 10 PVC pipe to attach the sail in the front and an 8 pipe (sinking it 24 in the back. The waterline is 42" deep. Using a 10 pipe I will have approx 54" of head clearance in front (due to a deck) and 30’ in the back. Is this to low? I donot want to attach it tithe house unless I have to.
We bought this to cover our pool pump equipment. Looks great, good material, strong and a great cover against the full sun of the AZ desert!
Perfect to created shade in a too sunny pool area!
Great shade tent above our pool!
The shade is great , the only thing wrong with it is I ordered 8×12 and was sent an 8×10 but I made the correction and made it fit, good shade cover for my pool equipment.
Easy pool shade at a cheap price
