In Case You Missed It! What to Know About: Patio Umbrellas

July 5, 2016

It’s that time of year when the sun is hot! Many of us Minnesotans look forward to the summer heat, but it can get unbearable if you don’t have the right shade protection. Patio umbrellas are the perfect solution to stay cool and protect your skin from the sun’s harsh rays. With options ranging from 6’ up to 13’ sizes you can find an umbrella to fit your shade needs.  A nice perk of the umbrella is that it’s not a fixed structure. You can close it when not in use to take advantage of the summer sun as much or as little as you want.

There are two main types of umbrellas: a market (center pole) umbrella and a cantilever (side pole) umbrella. Features such as tilting, rotating, canopy size, canopy shape, and fabric and finish colors are options you will want to know about before finalizing a decision. Let’s take a look back at the Patio Umbrella Guide which is a previous post that will steer you in the right direction.
