6 Ways to Take Control of Your Outdoor Living

Outdoor living has become a way to spend time with family and friends. 

Most patio covers or pergolas limit your use because you can’t control them.
Here is a great way to increase your outdoor living time. Install a Prestige Luxury Pergolas and control the louvers in 6 different useful ways.

Shade Control
By operating the motorized louvers with the remote control, which takes 16 seconds to fully open or fully close, you can adjust the shade exactly where you need it, any time you desire.

Sun Control
When you want sun on the patio or coming through your windows or patio doors, you can easily get it by opening the louvers to provide up to 85% of the natural light. 

Ventilation Control
The amazing thing about the Prestige Luxury Pergolas is when you open the louvers, you get almost 100% ventilation because they are parallel with each other.

Rain Control
Because the Prestige Luxury Pergolas has interlocking louvers with a drip edge, the rain simply runs into the louver troughs and then out into the full perimeter gutter. It can then run into the post as a downspout or through a regular downspout. Finally, it can be saved in a rain storage device or directed to water the lawn or garden.

Leaf Control
The Prestige Luxury Pergolas is the best leaf control cover because the gutters are made to receive standard leaf screens.

Louver Cleaning Control
We call the 150° louver opening “Easy Cleaning Mode”. This is because, at that angle, you can clean the top of the louvers from underneath. No other type of patio cover offers that feature only a louvered pergola. You just open the louvers to 150° and take a garden hose to spray the top of the louvers clean. If needed, you can use a soft brush and mild cleaner to get off any stubborn spots. Then close them and spray the bottom of the louvers clean.

HOW IS THE PRESTIGE LUXURY PERGOLAS LOUVERED ROOF DIFFERENT FROM ALL OTHER LOUVERED PERGOLAS?

• The Prestige louver is stronger than other louvers because it was designed with a modified tectonic arch. Most other louvers have a maximum 12’ span, but ours will span up to 16’.
• The Prestige gutter holds and distributes much more water than all others. It is designed to receive standard gutter screens and has built-in shelves to hold LED light strips.
• The Prestige louver is made in the USA and has a self lubricating bushing for the Pin that attaches into the louver that it rotates on, and ball bearings at each end of the louver for less friction and longer life without the metal metal squeaking you get with most other louver systems.
• The Prestige louver has a rubber gasket between all the louvers to help seal out the rain and allow the louvers to close quietly.
• The Prestige post to beam connection is the strongest on the market, designed to attach a large portion of the post directly to the beam.
• The Prestige pivot bars connect to the louvers using our stainless steel, sealed bearings for minimal friction and much longer life of the Pergola. Our system is quiet during operation!

14 ADVANTAGES OVER OTHER LOUVERED ROOFS

The Prestige Pergola was created from the knowledge learned from my many years in this industry, and from the background of my father’s entire career in the aluminum extrusion industry, making curtain walls for the largest skyscrapers of the time, including the World Trade Center buildings.

1. The largest volume gutter on the market with led lighting shelves.
2. Heavy duty extruded Aluminum post which are structural and can also serve as downspouts. Standard size is 6” x 6“ and available in 8” x 8“.
3. 2”x 8” heavy-duty extruded aluminum beams for a long spans between posts.
4. 150 degree louver, opening to catch more sun or deflect it and to open all the way for easy cleaning from below.

6. Straightforward installation using our innovative, self lubricating bushing for quiet operation.
7. Optional gutter Screens available at the box stores for keeping leaves and debris from clogging your gutters. 
8. Thicker double skin insulated louvers, which reduced the heat transfer to the bottom.
9. 4 structural heavy-duty girders inside our “modified tectonic arch” louver, and two vertical stabilizers on the outside of the louver, resulting in the longest spans and the strongest capability in the industry!
10. Flat, tongue and groove look, beautifully finished ceiling when the louvers are closed.
11. Weatherstrip/ bumper/ gasket, to resist water leaks, and provide quiet operation when closing the system.
12. Low friction, stainless steel, sealed, ball bearings for quieter and smoother operation and longer life.
