When choosing the type of Patio Umbrellas suitable for different climates, you can consider the following key factors to ensure that the selected parasol is both practical and durable:
Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF):
In climates with strong sunlight, it is particularly important to choose a parasol with a high UPF value. The higher the UPF value, the stronger the ability to block UV rays. For example, a parasol with UPF 50+ can block more than 99.8% of UV rays and is suitable for long-term outdoor use.
For daily use, a parasol with UPF 30+ is sufficient, but in cases where the sun is particularly strong or you need to be outdoors for a long time, it is recommended to choose a parasol with UPF 50+ or ​​higher.
Material:
The material of the parasol directly affects its durability and sun protection effect. Common materials include PG cloth, polyester, satin fabric, etc. Among them, satin fabric has the UV resistance, followed by polyester.
In rainy or humid climates, it is more appropriate to choose a material with waterproof function.
Coating:
The coating of the parasol has an important impact on its sun protection effect. Black glue coating is usually better than silver glue coating, while double-sided silver glue/double-sided color glue has the sun protection effect, with a UPF of up to 100%.
When choosing a coating, you should also consider its durability and whether it is easy to fall off. Compared with ordinary silver glue, ultrafine encrypted silver glue is not easy to fall off and has a higher UPF value.
Color and umbrella cloth density:
In the case of the same material, choose a darker color parasol, because the UV penetration rate of dark umbrella surface is relatively small.
The density of the umbrella cloth also affects the sun protection effect. The tighter the umbrella cloth is woven, the less sunlight (including UV rays in the sun) shines through the umbrella cloth.
Other considerations:
Structure and stability: In areas with strong winds, it is more appropriate to choose a parasol with a solid structure and good stability.
Portability: If you need to move the parasol frequently, it is more convenient to choose a lightweight and easy-to-fold style.
Aesthetics: According to personal preferences and garden decoration style, choose a parasol with beautiful appearance and coordinated with the surrounding environment.
In summary, when choosing the type of Patio Umbrellas suitable for different climate conditions, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the UPF value, material, coating, color, density of umbrella cloth and other related factors. Through reasonable selection, you can ensure that the selected parasol can not only meet the sun protection needs, but also adapt to different climate conditions.
