Protect Your Valuable Awnings Against Weather Damage with Awning Sensors!
With the awning wind sensor, you can rest assure your awning will automatically retract in strong weather conditions even when you’re away from home.
Your ERS awning goes beyond home style by saving you MONEY on energy consumption.
A PAMA Energy Study also showed awnings can reduce annual cooling energy 64-80% for homes in San Francisco.
This same study by PAMA also found awnings INCREASE heating costs in colder months as they filter natural heat gains when they are extended – another reason to invest in a retractable awning that can be collapsed in colder months!

That study is backed by further evidence from larger, independent organizations:
ASHRAE (the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air-Condition Engineers) show that an awning reduces solar gain by 72-77% on western exposures, reducing home cooling energy consumption by up to 60%.
The US Department of Energy report solar heat gain reductions of 65-77% from Awning usage

Your ERS Shading retractable awning is a pretty valuable investment.
In fact, installing an electric awning for your deck, patio, pool/spa area, garage, outdoor kitchen or other exterior space can add serious value to your home. Our retractable awnings are fully customized with your choice of colors and size. To increase the durability of the awnings, our elegant protective shell adds to the lifetime of the awning.
From beginning to end, you get a quality awning that is truly a European Rolling Shutters standard.
In addition to our awnings, we are also San Jose’s authorized dealer of the luxury German-manufactured markilux awnings.

Each electric awning is custom-fitted to your space, made locally at our San Jose factory using premium materials and installed by ERS Shading professional contractors.
Remember: you get a 5-year warranty on everything we install, plus a 10-year warranty on your Sunbrella fabrics. Our outdoor canvas awning will bring a cool, relaxing shade to your family’s barbecue, pool, patio or deck.
