author: Petra, 20.09.2023. in Blogs Aluminium pergolas Pergola doesn't have to be just an ordinary shelter on your terrace or in your garden. When choosing the right type, it will be your favorite place to spend time with family, friends, or alone. Bioclimatic pergola differs from others because it has adjustable roof louvers. It's made of durable aluminum, which means no annual maintenance, sanding, or painting is required. Just water and a cloth are enough to maintain its flawless appearance for years. Command the sun As mentioned earlier, the pergola's roof consists of louvers. You can tilt them from 0 to 130 degrees. With a simple press of a button on the remote control, you can adjust the amount of light and the direct sunlight under the pergola. When completely closed, it provides shade. You can divide the roof into 2 sections and control each separately. No matter the orientation of your garden, morning or afternoon, low sun rays can shine under your pergola. You can easily prevent this with screen blinds. The great advantage is that screen blinds handle the sun but do not limit your view. This is a significant difference from other types of shading or nearby walls. Control the wind Is it windy outside? It would be amazing to wave a magic wand and tame the wind. And that's exactly what you can do under the pergola. Just replace the wand with the remote control for the screen blinds. They not only function as shading but also effectively shield the space from the wind. Leave the rain outside Effective protection from the rain is ensured by the solid and impermeable roof. When the louvers are closed, the bioclimatic pergola creates it, allowing you to stay under the pergola with friends for a barbecue or during rainy weather. ARTOSI pergolas have integrated drainage (water is drained away through one or more legs). Just like with sun rays and wind, screen blinds can help in this situation, keeping you dry under the pergola even in sideways rain. During winter, you can also leave the pergola roof closed. Its load-bearing capacity is in the range of 90 - 116 kg/m3 (depending on the length of the louvers). If you expect heavy snowfall, it's recommended to open the louvers and let the snow fall freely. Your privacy is valuable When you spend time on the terrace with a book, your neighbors' views probably won't bother you. However, if you want to have conversations with friends over dinner or in the hot tub, you'll appreciate some privacy. Screen blinds excel in this regard due to their "no/see-through" feature. You can hardly see inside, or not at all. But you can maintain your view to the outside. In the evening, integrated LED lighting can enhance your experience under the pergola. Again, with just a press of a button, you can adjust its intensity and create a pleasant romantic atmosphere in the space.
