While motorized awnings for homes are a relatively modern phenomenon, sun awnings themselves are nothing new. Ancient Egyptians and Syrians used awnings to keep cool in the desert sun.

The ability to retract your awning means that you can let in all that gloriously warm sunshine during the cold winter months, and give your heater a break.
