How V-Track Solves It for Pool Patios

V-Track solar screens use specialized fabric with selectable openness factors to control how much light and heat passes through. The continuous track retention ensures the fabric stays flat and tensioned, providing even shade coverage without billowing or sagging. Retract the screens when you want full sun.

Built for Florida Conditions

St. Petersburg averages over 360 days of measurable sunshine per year, earning its nickname as the Sunshine City. The peninsula location between Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico means consistent onshore winds and direct exposure to tropical weather systems. Salt-laden coastal air accelerates deterioration of unprotected outdoor materials, and the warm, wet climate sustains mosquito populations virtually year-round. V-Track's extruded aluminum side channels and marine-grade hardware are engineered to withstand these conditions season after season on poolside patio areas. V-Track screens are installed across the St. Petersburg area by authorized dealers.
