A New Patio Cover: Great For Summer Celebrations!

You may have missed out on getting a new patio cover installed in time for July 4, but if you’re planning for your July 24 celebrations, it’s not too late!

At Cool Covers, we’re still taking calls for July installations at (801) 396-2419.

People who get new patio covers installed in the summertime often tell us that they’ve changed the whole comfort level and atmosphere of their Independence Day and Pioneer Day gatherings with family and friends.

One reason they love our steel patio covers is that it’s safe and convenient to barbecue underneath them – whether the weather you’re contending with this July is sun, rain, or snow.

(Lately it seems like you never can tell with the weather in Utah!)

If it’s sunny and hot outside, a patio cover offers shade while still allowing smoke to escape up into the air, providing a cooking space that’s much more comfortable for you.

It also makes it easier for your guests to relax and enjoy your company while you’re preparing the meal – and for you to sit down and talk with them in a nice, inviting environment while keeping an eye on the grill.

If it’s raining or snowing, a patio cover will enable you to keep the grill going anyway – meaning even if the fireworks and the rodeo get snowed out, you’ll still be able to feed your guests well while the kids re-enact crossing the prairie in adverse weather conditions, as many early pioneers did.

To find out more about the joys of owning a patio cover, you can check out Cool Covers online at www.coolcovers07.com, e-mail scott@patiocoversutah.com, or call us at (801) 396-2419.
