Transform the outdoor amenities of your master-planned community with spectacular shades designed to improve comfort and offer protection against the sun’s harsh rays. Here’s a glimpse of how our shade structures make outdoor amenities irresistible to those considering purchasing property within your master-planned community.
SHADED OUTDOOR POOL & SPA AMENITIES
Potential residents are looking for lifestyle amenities and outdoor living spaces, and they don’t want to worry about sun damage and high temperatures. Make your pool and spa area of your master-planned community’s amenity center stand-out with vibrant shade covers that wow. Apollo Sunguard offers various shade sizes to provide just the right amount of shade to your pool deck – from smaller shade structures around picnic tables to larger shade structures to cover the entire side patio of chairs.
SHADED PARKING
Your potential residents truly will find their shaded parking irresistible. Parked cars in the hot sun can reach as high as 150 degrees Fahrenheit. However, vehicles parked beneath Apollo Sunguard’s shaded parking structures keep cooler temperatures so that your residents don’t have to expose themselves to the hot heat. Not only will they appreciate the cooler temperature, the car itself will not experience the damage that is often attributed to high heat – including cracked dashboards, dry seats, faded paint, battery performance loss and more.
SHADE YOUR PICNIC AND OUTSIDE GATHERING AREAS
Those who call your master-planned community home will enjoy the fresh air longer with shaded picnic and outside gathering areas. Apollo Sunguard’s shade structures mimic a tree canopy, allowing air to filter through the fabric similar to how it filters through a tree’s branches. This results in a 20-degree cooler temperature – a cooler haven on a hot afternoon. Meanwhile, the shade canopy provides protection against UV rays – meaning your picnic and seating furniture and equipment are protected.
SHADED COURTS FOR MAXIMUM PLAY
Give your residents more time on the court playing their favorite pick-up game of pickleball, tennis, basketball or shuffleboard. Unshaded concrete courts, like tennis courts or pickleball, can be 15 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than the air temperature. This means the afternoon games are extremely hot. When playing a sport like tennis or pickleball, it is important to avoid high temperatures to avoid heat stroke and heat exhaustion. With the help of the Apollo Sunguard’s shade solutions, the heat of the court will drastically lower, and the air temperature under the canopy of a shade structure will cool down. Your residents will enjoy the 20-degree cooler temperatures and protection against the sun’s UV rays – meaning your community’s residents can play longer no matter how high the sun is that day.
SHADED DOG PARKS
Apollo Sunguard understands the significance of dog parks, which not only provide opportunities for canines to socialize and exercise but also help foster connections among neighbors. It is important to ensure the comfort and safety of your residents’ pets as it is for their owners. We offer shade sails designed to effectively cover both large and small areas within the dog parks of your master-planned community – which will increase the playtime for both owners and their pets.
SHADED PLAYGROUNDS & OUTDOOR FITNESS STATIONS
Residents of your master-planned community will benefit from cooler playground equipment under Apollo Sunguard’s integrated shades. Unshaded playground equipment can become extremely hot during summer, reaching temperatures up to 167°F, which is sufficient to cause burns within seconds of contact. Apollo Sunguard provides the industry’s largest attached shades through our integrated PlayTowers and PlayBrellas™, which can be installed on any new or existing playground structure. These shades offer excellent solar protection and can considerably extend the lifespan of your equipment. As a result, families will be more likely to stay and utilize the park for longer periods, even during the hottest parts of the day, knowing their children are safe.
SHADED STADIUM SEATING
If your master-planned community incorporates baseball diamonds, soccer fields, or other spectator sport venues, your residents will appreciate the shaded seating and picnic areas that Apollo Sunguard’s shade structures can provide. With metal bleachers, dark asphalt courts and treeless fields, many sports facilities are not naturally shaded. Fortunately, Apollo’s dynamic and breathable shade structures offer practical solutions for any athletic venue.
