Customer understands that the outdoor pergola and/or solid roofs Systems, that the Contractor represents, were engineered and acknowledges that rigid awnings and canopy shutters with louvered blades shall be repositioned to the vertical open position during periods of high wind velocity. While doing so does not guarantee the System will survive a high wind velocity storm, it does improve the chances that the System will do so. Although SHO-Pros offers a high-wind package system, this is not to be perceived as an add-on making it Hurricane rated. The mentioned is an option offered to assist the Systems to manage high-winds.
The Systems and/or solid roofs have U.S. patents and are engineered to high standards. It is designed and engineered for all-weather elements, from rain to snow. However, we cannot claim the system is 100% water tight when challenged by blowing rain and/or powerful downpours.
