Thomas A.

“We are getting a patio installed by CAT exteriors and WOW! What an experience it has been so far. Mark showed up to give us our options and go over financials, when I say he made things easy I might consider it an understatement. He showed us all of our options, from the patio to fixtures to financing. He then set up our appointment with Juan and his team for a couple of DAYS later. They showed up, measured, had the whole plan done in an hour or so, and even took time to play with our puppy. They are professional, honest, and very kind.”

This design is ideal for homeowners seeking maximum shade and a clean, contemporary aesthetic that seamlessly integrates with their home’s architecture.

IRP Patio Cover

The IRP Patio Cover, featuring Insulated Roof Panels, is engineered for superior comfort and energy efficiency. These panels consist of a high density foam insulation core sandwiched between two durable aluminum skins.

IRP covers offer a robust, solid roof that provides full protection from the elements while enhancing the thermal performance of your outdoor living area.

Lattice Patio Cover

A Lattice Patio Cover offers a beautiful blend of sun and shade, creating a casually elegant outdoor living space. Featuring an open, decorative framework, lattice covers allow dappled sunlight to filter through, providing partial shade while maintaining an airy feel. This style is perfect for homeowners who desire a sophisticated aesthetic and prefer some natural light to penetrate their patio area, making it ideal for relaxing or showcasing plants.

Tri–V Patio Cover

The Tri-V Patio Cover is distinguished by its unique triple V-shaped panel design, offering a modern and distinct aesthetic. This innovative profile not only provides superior shade and weather protection but also adds a contemporary flair to your outdoor space.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Duracool Patio and how does it work?

A Duracool Patio is a high performance exterior patio cover system designed to provide superior shade and comfort. Unlike traditional patio covers that can absorb and radiate heat, Duracool Patios feature an exclusive paint system with ceramic pigments that reflect the sun’s ultraviolet or UV rays. This innovative technology significantly reduces the surface temperature of the patio cover, creating a much cooler and more inviting outdoor living space beneath it.

What are the key benefits of installing a Duracool Patio?

Duracool Patios offer numerous compelling benefits for homeowners. They provide exceptional shade and comfort by effectively reflecting solar heat, making your outdoor space usable even on the hottest Southern California days. They are incredibly durable and resistant to common issues like rotting wood, warping, and pests such as termites. Duracool Patios also enhance your home’s curb appeal with a wide selection of colors and design options, allowing for a customized and elegant look. They are low maintenance and backed by a comprehensive warranty, ensuring lasting beauty and performance.

How long do Duracool Patios typically last?

Duracool Patios are engineered for long term durability. Constructed from high quality aluminum, they are inherently weather resistant and designed to last for several decades, far outperforming traditional wood or vinyl patio covers. The exclusive Duracool paint system, fortified with DuPont Teflon protector, resists chalking, fading, and environmental weathering, ensuring the appearance remains vibrant and new for years. With proper installation, a Duracool Patio is a long lasting investment in your home’s comfort and value.

Are Duracool Patios easy to maintain?

Yes, Duracool Patios are designed for minimal maintenance. Unlike wood patio covers that require regular painting, staining, or sealing, Duracool Patios will not rot, warp, or fade. Their advanced coating system makes them highly resistant to dirt, stains, and abrasions, making cleaning a breeze. Typically, all that is needed to keep your Duracool Patio looking its best is an occasional rinse with a garden hose. This low maintenance requirement saves you time and money on upkeep over the years.

Why choose Duracool Patios over other patio cover brands?

Duracool Patios stand out from other brands due to their unique combination of advanced technology, durability, and aesthetic appeal. The exclusive Ceranamel XT-40 paint system, fortified with DuPont Teflon protector, provides superior heat reflection and unmatched resistance to scratching, fading, and environmental damage. Duracool Patios are Energy Star approved, meaning they meet strict energy efficiency guidelines and can help reduce your cooling costs. Their richly embossed HD wood grain texture offers the appealing look of wood with the lasting benefits of aluminum, providing a premium solution that blends timeless design with superior performance and a lifetime warranty.

Will a Duracool Patio increase my home's value?

Installing a Duracool Patio can certainly increase your home’s appeal and perceived value. A well designed and functional outdoor living space is highly sought after by homebuyers, especially in areas with warm climates like Southern California. By transforming your patio into a comfortable, inviting oasis that can be enjoyed year round, a Duracool Patio adds valuable usable square footage to your home. Its aesthetic appeal, durability, and energy saving benefits make it an attractive feature that can help your home stand out in the market.
