HOME OWNERS BRACE YOURSELVES
“… one of the most reviled insects, the pesky mosquito, is coming back with a vengeance. The season has started early and experts are predicting it’s going to be a bad one…” Toronto CityNews, April 19, 2017
Unfortunately, this forecast was very accurate. 2017 was and still is the perfect storm for insects: one of the worst bug season summers in recent history. Moreover, on August 22, CBC News published and article, titled “West Nile 'epidemic' in Ontario is imminent…”. Fiona Hunter, a medical and veterinary entomologist reports a perfect storm of conditions for a West Nile virus epidemic. “Ontario saw outbreaks of the virus in 2002 with 395 human cases and in 2012 when 220 confirmed and probable cases were tallied. This year, there have been 14 reported — confirmed or probable — cases of West Nile virus in humans. “These confirmed human cases are generally people who are pretty sick,” added Hunter. “That means there are a lot of other people out there who have been infected.” Other reports are claiming that this new trend will stay with us for years to come.
BRACE YOURSELVES…
FOR A ULTIMATE INSECT-PROOF SOLUTION!
Well, let’s not take any chances. There is enough state-of-the-art technology to make sure you can enjoy this and many subsequent summers to come. Along with regular windows and doors our manual or motor operated insect screen systems are also ideally suitable for loggias, pergolas, patios, gazebos, terraces, and balconies.
Today’s homeowners want to enjoy their outdoors space as much as possible, as long as possible. Without the inevitable pestilent intruders... insects, of course! A motorized Exterior Insect or SunScreen shading system can be used as a very effective protection barrier against mosquitos, blackflies, deerflies, bees and wasps. Moreover, with the use of an outdoor heater, you can create a whole new outdoor living experience for you and your visitors.
WHAT IS A FLEXYSKINTM LOGGIA?
Traditionally speaking, a loggia is an architectural structure: a covered exterior gallery or corridor on either ground or upper level. Its outer walls, which are open to the elements are usually supported by columns or arches. A flexyskinR Loggia is based on the same principle, but with a major difference. EN3 Sunprotection Inc. now offers Integrated Motorized Insect & Sunprotection Screening systems that are seamlessly integrated into an existing or planned architectural loggia. Thanks to current state-of-the-art technology and high performing materials, the EN3 system exceeds its traditional predecessor way beyond anyone’s imagination.
WHAT ABOUT A FLEXYSKINTM PERGOLA?
There are two types of pergolas: adjacent or self-standing. At EN3, we offer both solutions. The adjacent option consists of a customized, permanent reinforced aluminum structure that increases the footprint of your home and integrates with its appearance. We can accommodate any size or adhere to any shape or profile or specification.
Comfortable and safe outdoors with a click of a button?
Once in place, the EN3 Loggia’s or EN3 Pergola’s structure is then stocked with remotely controlled Integrated Roller Systems providing Insect or Sunprotection or both. All Roller systems incorporate a patented Manual or Automated Tensioning System ensuring high-level fabric tensioning. Special, waterproof yet translucent fabrics can also handle snow load.
Effective cassette housings and wind resistant lateral side channels with integrated fabric retention ensure easy and effortless handling. Moreover, sunscreen fabrics will also reduce wind, rain and protect from harmful UV rays and provide daytime privacy while extending your valuable outdoor living space.
Imagine, that thanks to the leading edge technology, the motorized roof and exposed sides (made of state-of-the-art fabric /screen) of your adjacent loggia are completely flexible and close / open via a remote control. You can completely reconfigure the “skin” of your loggia or patio or balcony with a click of a button.
