Retractable shade systems offer flexibility, style and ease of operation, ensuring you can enjoy your outdoor living spaces rain or shine

Shaderunner Australia recently installed a beautiful long-span Shaderunner® Classic Retractable Sail over the stunning pool area of this modern home in the leafy suburb of Adelaide Hills. Offering easy manual operation, the large extension sail provides all the shade the family needs. Not only that, a protective cover over the top of the fabric helps prevent leaves and debris from entering the fabric when it is stacked.

The owner of this home requested a fully-retractable, easy-to-operate shading solution to better maximise the family’s use of the 6.5m by 14m rear extension and pool — the Shaderunner® Retractable Shade System proved the perfect solution. The Shaderunner® Retractable Shade System, which is proving a popular choice for outdoor areas and pools right around Australia, is constructed using only the most durable marine-grade yacht fittings and Ronstan ball-bearing pulleys, ensuring you will enjoy many years of trouble-free shading with minimal maintenance.

Shaderunner® Retractable Shade Systems are also manufactured using only rigorously tested fabrics, from 95 per cent polyester mesh to waterproof PVC. Each fabric is mould-resistant, offers protection from glare and the sun’s harmful rays, and is available in a wide range of colours.

The highly durable Shaderunner® is ideally suited for an array of applications around the home, from outdoor entertaining spaces and patios to swimming pools and courtyards, and provides welcome shade that makes spending time outdoors enjoyable, whatever the weather.

Although available with motorised operation, this Shaderunner® system is controlled manually via a simple-to-use endless draw cord. The major challenge was how to cover such a large area and keep falling leaves and other debris from landing on the sail fabric when it was retracted while still providing adequate shade.

Another key consideration was ensuring the pool could be used throughout the seasons. Sunlight and warmth were required in the cooler months, for thermal comfort and the solar effect on the pool water, and this fully-retractable shade system makes this possible. The end result was skilfully achieved and with minimal structural support, ensuring a streamlined look.

With the addition of this Shaderunner® Classic retractable shade system, the owners of this beautiful home have the benefit of controllable shade on demand, maximising year-round use of the pool area.

The unique qualities of the Shaderunner® enable it to be utilised for a multitude of applications, from the smallest domestic setting right up to large-span commercial projects, such as sports venues, wineries, aquatic parks and hotels. With distributors located in each state, the Shaderunner® is available throughout Australia.

The innovative design and versatile functionality of the Shaderunner® make it an excellent investment for enhancing outdoor spaces.
