PAMA recognizes these sponsoring retail professionals for their financial support of our initiative to bring awareness of the benefits of awnings to consumers.
PAMA Energy Study - 50-city study showing awnings significantly reduce cooling costs in U.S.
Data analysis shows that in a hot year, awnings can reduce annual cooling energy by more than 25%, compared to homes with completely unshaded windows. This can amount to as much $200 or more in energy savings. The complete report is now available. View Final Summary & Individual Data Reports for all 50 cities.
