The desert climate in Arizona provides a lot of direct sunshine throughout the year, and with this, there’s also a high risk of sun damage and other heat related issues. Keeping this in mind, outdoor shade becomes a bare necessity, especially at school campuses, daycare facilities and basketball / sports courts around the Valley to protect people and children from the heat and sun damage that is so prevalent here in Arizona.
Shade ‘N Net of Arizona has been in operation for 25 years, and we’ve helped numerous schools and parks throughout Arizona provide a safer and cooler environment for kids, students and adults. We offer several commercial shade solutions in Arizona designed to shade and protect folks from the harsh desert sun.

Go with Shade in Arizona and Beat the Heat!
The shade provided by the structure also creates a cooler environment under the actual shade canopy. If installed over play equipment, it helps keep the equipment cooler to the touch, so one doesn’t burn their skin, while also helping to prevent the equipment’s color from fading and material from overall decay. Thinking back to your playground days, metal and plastic got blistering hot! So by having a shade structure covering the equipment, it helps cut down just how hot the equipment actually gets and makes it more comfortable for active play and sport. Even during the Covid-19 pandemic, schools today are reaching out seeking shade solutions for student drop-off and pick-up areas, so they are ready when school begins. Just recently, we installed an umbrella-style shade canopy at a local high school, it turned out awesome! These are permanent single-column structures where colors can be customized for you. This is a space saving option that provides plenty of shade to cover students while they congregate and wait for school to start / be picked up after or before school. Additionally, according to Arizona Addiction and Wellness, shade is recommended over direct sunlight is the choice for protecting mental health issues in Arizona.
