Tempotest

Tempotest

The Parà Group has earned the reputation for manufacturing some of the industry’s highest quality textiles. “Made in Italy” with a strong focus on every detail – from the spinning and weaving stages, through the printing and dyeing, to the coating and finishing line – the Parà Group has become synonymous with high-end quality, style and service.

During the Tempotest  production process, the fabric is introduced into the Teflon Extreme finishing bath creating a strong bond with the fiber and forming an invisible barrier. Due to this feature, water in the barrier cleans away at dirt, resulting in a longer lasting and stronger fabric. 

All Tempotest fabrics are also given a special Hi-Clean finishing. As a result of this process, the material is given an impenetrable barrier without compromising the fabrics breathability. Customers and clientele can enjoy a fabric resistant to water, grease, and oil as well as protects against rotting and the formation of mold and fungus. Tempotest allows customers to enjoy more, rather than clean their fabrics; dust and other particles will be automatically washed away from water or rain. 

Fabric Selection Factors

Customers and clientele alike look for a fabric that fits their needs and preference. Tempotest fabrics are all given:

-Solar Heat Protection

  • As Darker patterns often offer better heat protection, customers can choose if decreasing the temperature under the awning to its minimum. Darker fabrics also absorb heat more efficiently than lighter fabrics, in which case a customer might select a lighter color fabric as it ‘may feel cooler’. 

– Solar Light Protection

  • Dark patterns minimize sun glare as opposed to lighter patterns, resulting in the area under your awning to be brighter. 

– UV Protection

  • It can be dangerous to sit out in the sun for too long, Tempotest materials have proven to preform well against UV rays, letting customers enjoy their awnings and worry less of their health. Darker patterns typically provide better protection against UV rays than opposed to lighter patterns.  

Tempotest Marine® and Awning Fabric

It is simple to remove air pollution, smog, and other kinds of harmful particles from the Tempotest fabrics. Simply just apply some hot water and soap, rinse thoroughly and leave fabric to dry in open air..

Tempotest fabrics can be machine washed up to a temperature of  85°F without losing their water- and stain-resistant properties. Using a mild laundry soap or a similar non-detergent based product, Tempotest fabrics can be easily washed and continue to perform. 

“Warranty

Tempotest® solution-dyed acrylic awning and marine fabrics come with a 10-year warranty. Tempotest Home® solution-dyed acrylic indoor and outdoor fabrics have a 6-year warranty. The Tempotest Starlight FR® and TempotestStar Home FR® warranties are each valid for 5 years.”

    Ordered shades from Mr. Tom 11-12 weeks ago, got an email from Tom explaining a delay due to the hurricanes in Florida,... said we were 16-17 weeks. Just finished talking to the owner and he let me know it would be another couple of weeks. As of now we are on the schedule.Look forward to editing this review in a couple of weeks to a 5 star review.read more

    We couldn't be happier with our shade as well as the service we received from Tom and the crew at Shade Works. The... back of our house faces east so we get the morning sun. Once the shades were installed we had no issues with the sun and were even able to lower our AC setting! When we later enlarged our patio and needed the level of the shade raised, Allen walked me through it over the phone. We highly recommend Shade Works of Texas!read more

    Alan personally had to come fix our shades multiple times after his team couldn’t figure out how to install them... properly. Please find another supplier. I would not recommend working with Alan and his unprofessional team.read more

    Representative showed up when promised to discuss my project. Shade options and installation issues were discussed and... agreed to. Installation took place several months later on the agreed upon date without any issues (had to wait for factory to produce unit and I ordered in prime time). Since unit was installed early last fall, we haven't had a chance to use it yet but a test run last week went without a hitch. Price was fair and competitive. Looks great. Nice neat installation.read more

    We have had our shades now for over a year & a half, & we continue to love them! They are fabulous in the summer... keeping out the sun & the mosquitos, & also keeping the sun "in check" during winter when the sun is lower on the horizon. Alan & his team were extremely professional, easy-going, & helped us with all questions & made suggestions based on our needs. I would HIGHLY recommend Shade Works of Texas for not only a fabulous product, but also tremendous customer service. Thank you, Alan!read more

    We just had our roller shades installed. Alan was very helpful and responsive. They did a great job on our main roller... shade and added fixed shades for opened areas around our patio columns.I did have to do some follow-up with the initial install as well as the fixed shades that followed. They also had to re-do some of the finished woodwork as it didn’t match the stain for our patio. But they were very understanding and kept at it to do the job right.We are so appreciative and love our roller shade. It has been so helpful with the crazy weather and our dogs during those days. We have used our patio area almost every day!read more

    Our back porch faces the afternoon sun and is brutal! After our shades were installed, we noticed a considerable... difference in the reduction of the heat and blindness! They are very attractive and keep the porch a very cozy temperature. It's amazing how much wind they block and how much privacy they provide, yet we can still enjoy the view of our backyard. We are extremely happy with our purchase! So happy, in fact, we are considering installing one on another side of the porch. Alan helped us choose a beautiful color that is very complimentary to our brick and trim. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and made the entire process a pleasure. Wouldn't it be nice of all businesses operated at this standard!read more

Alan and his team are very professional and easy to work with. We are ready to contact them again for a shade in a different area of our home.Great job. I would highly reccomend Shade Works of Texas for their quality work and fair pricing.read more
