Now that summer has come to an end, it’s time to start preparing for the colder and rainier months. This is the time of year when many of us will be packing away our garden furniture and covering up our outdoor pools. But what if there was a solution that meant we didn’t have to do this? A way to continue enjoying outdoor space even when the weather tries to stop us? Thankfully there is! At Designer Shade Solutions, we provide a variety of retractable glass roofs which allow you to maximise the use of your outdoor pool all year round.
What is a retractable glass roof?
A retractable glass roof is a shading structure which offers shelter and protection from the elements. The glass roof can open when the weather is warm and sunny, or close when the rain starts to fall, allowing you to relax outside in every scenario. Other than the obvious versatile protection that these structures provide, they also have many other advantages too. For example, these roofs let in an abundance of natural lighting, which not only helps to expose surrounding views, but also creates the illusion of a large open space.
You can install one of our retractable glass roofs as a stand-alone piece, covering the pool at the end of your garden, or attach the shading structure to the end of your property. By adding the roof as an extension, you can create an entirely new pool room in your house that is functional throughout the year.
Retractable Glass Clear Sky roof
Our retractable glass roofs come available in two different design aspects, the first being the retractable glass Clear Sky roof. This design is specifically tailored to be integrated into a pre-existing part of your building. Whether that be over a pool room or an entire restaurant space, it is truly intended to provide an entirely new modern look to your property.
The structure uses a SecurTrak™ rail system which enables you to easily the operate the motion of the roof, opening or closing it when desired. You can further enhance this accessibility by incorporating our radio-control systems to move your roof with the simple click of a button. The main advantage of this Clear Sky roof structure, is that it has high resistance to snow and wind, meaning that nothing will interrupt your time swimming.
Retractable Solaglide glass roof
The second design aspect available at Designer Shade Solutions, is our retractable Solaglide glass roof, a visually engaging structure. This structure is also ideal for pool rooms and other outdoor settings like roof top bars, as it again protects users from varying weather conditions. The Solaglide roof connects seamlessly to the side of your building, acting as a separate addition to your property rather than an entire integration. There are many benefits to this structure , including the fact that its insulation offers up to 75% clear open space and insulated comfort, so that you can relax and enjoy your time in the pool no matter the weather outside. Install your glass structure in either a single glazed, double glazed or polycarbonate finish, depending on your individual specifications and requirements.
Other ways to maximise enjoyment in your pool
Glass structures are evidently a fantastic way to maximise the use of your pool throughout autumn and even winter too! Want to take it a step further? Why not consider implementing some of our customisable features to further extend the comforting feel of your pool room. This could include adding heating to warm you up that little more in the winter. How about integrating LED lighting to add ambience to your evening swims?
