Why Use a Cover for Your Residential Umbrellas?

Residential umbrellas are not immune to bad weather conditions – whether it be scorching heat or snowy winters. They can be damaged by heavy rain, hail storms, strong winds and freezing temperatures, so it’s a good idea to protect them from potential damage. This will also ensure that they can be used for a longer period of time.  Poggesi includes a free cover with all of our custom umbrellas!

Here Are Some Other Reasons to Have a Cover for Your Residential Umbrellas:

Heat: the sun damages the umbrella’s fabric, especially pool umbrellas. It’s advisable to put a cover on the pool umbrella when it isn’t being used to protect it from damaging sun exposure. Rain: heavy rainstorms also damage the umbrella’s fabric. You should cover your umbrella and keep it indoors.  If you forget to bring in your umbrella then just using a cover will also protect it. Moisture: humidity and other moisture can lead to the growth of mold and mildew on your patio umbrella. Molds thrive in moisture, so it’s a good idea to cover your umbrella during humid weather conditions.  Residential umbrellas should also be covered during the off-season. This ensures that they will be protected from all the elements and they will be in mint condition when you need them! At Poggesi, our residential umbrellas are made with marine grade acrylic and our frames are made of rust-resistant aluminium – materials that are sure to protect your umbrella against the elements. We also offer care instructions for your umbrella that are cost-effective and easy to maintain. Our umbrellas are crafted in Italy by highly-experienced engineers and visionary artisans.
