Worth knowing for Texas: this is a hot summer / mixed climate, which means long hot summers, severe spring storms, and significant temperature swings between coast, hill country, and panhandle. A well-spec'd awning for this region should anticipate high gust loads, particularly inland and along the Gulf and high UV exposure most of the year — both of which influence the long-term cost-per-year of any installation.The SILICA STONE 6061-0000 fabric on this estimate is a reasonable match for hot summer / mixed conditions — solution-dyed acrylics resist the high UV exposure most of the year typical of Texas better than vinyl, and shed humidity well. Estimating in the summer of 2023 is typical for Texas — most awning installations book during peak season, when lead times stretch 6–10 weeks.
