Clearwater sits between two bodies of water, Clearwater Harbor to the west and Tampa Bay to the east, and that geography drives serious insect pressure nearly year-round. Add salt air that reaches well past the beach into mainland neighborhoods, plus real Gulf hurricane-season risk, and an outdoor space here needs to handle more than everyday Florida heat.
SPF Screens & Awnings builds custom Motorized Retractable Screens, Retractable Awnings, and Hurricane Screens designed for exactly these conditions.
Being bordered by both Clearwater Harbor and Tampa Bay gives Clearwater its waterfront character, but it also means insect pressure stays high for most of the year on both the mainland side and out toward Clearwater Beach. Salt air accelerates wear on unprotected hardware, especially closer to the Gulf, and hurricane season adds real wind risk between June and November. An outdoor space built for just one of these problems usually falls short on the other two.
All SPF Screens & Awnings retractable awnings and retractable roll down screens are designed and manufactured right here in the US, installed by factory trained technicians, with a factory-backed warranty. Our installations can be completed in as little as 15 days from the time you make your final design decisions.
A Clearwater outdoor space has to hold up to insect pressure from two directions, salt air, and hurricane-season wind, often in the same summer. A specialist visits your home, reviews your patio, lanai, or balcony, and recommends options built for these specific conditions. Our designers handle measuring and design, and installation is completed by our trained installation partners.
