Transform the outdoor amenities of your retirement community with spectacular shades designed to improve comfort and protection. Here’s a look of how our shade structures make outdoor amenities irresistible to those considering living within your retirement community, whether you manage a 55+ community, an independent living community, assisted living or respite care.
ENJOY SHADED OUTDOOR POOL & SPA AMENITIES
The pool and spa area of your retirement community’s amenity center will stand-out with vibrant shade covers that wow. Apollo Sunguard offers various shade sizes to provide just the right amount of shade to your community’s pool deck that your residents – from smaller shade structures around picnic tables to larger shade structures to cover the entire side patio of chairs. With UV protection and cooler temperatures, you’ll find your residents will enjoy their time by the pool even longer.
OFFER SHADED PICNIC AND SEATING AREAS
Residents of your retirement community will enjoy the fresh air longer with shaded picnic and seating areas. Apollo Sunguard’s shade structures mimic a tree canopy, allowing air to filter through the fabric similar to how it filters through the branches and leaves. This can result in a 20-degree cooler temperature – a perfect escape on a hot day. Meanwhile, the shade canopy provides protection against UV rays – meaning your picnic and seating furniture are protected as well as your residents. It’s a win-win!
CELEBRATE SHADED PARKING
When choosing which retirement community to call home, shaded parking can make a difference in the decision making process. Your community should consider shaded parking. Parked cars in the hot sun can reach as high as 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Cars parked beneath Apollo Sunguard’s shaded parking structures keep cooler temperatures so that your residents and their guests don’t have to expose themselves to the hot heat when after enjoying one of your community’s amenities. 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. Your potential residents truly will find their shaded parking irresistible.
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. No matter what stage of retirement your residents are living, many of them may have a four-legged best friend who needs a place to stretch and socialize. 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 retirement community.
PROVIDE SHADED COURTS FOR MAXIMUM PLAY
For those retirement communities that are 55+ or for an active lifestyle, give your residents more time on the court playing their favorite game. Unshaded tennis courts can be 15 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than the air temperature. 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 sun protection – meaning they can play longer no matter how high the sun is that day.
