Solid Flat Cover FAQs

What’s the difference between standard solid and insulated flat panels?

The standard solid flat patio cover uses 100% aluminum roof panels that create a durable, watertight structure designed to protect the patio from sun, rain, and snow. The insulated aluminum cover uses roof panels with a foam core that helps limit heat transfer so the covered area stays more comfortable during hot periods of the day.

Both solid and insulated aluminum covers from Alumawood are pest-proof and resistant to cracking and warping, offering high-quality, low-maintenance options for your outdoor living areas.

How is water routed off the roof and away from footings?

The solid flat roof cover uses built-in gutters that collect water along the roof edge. Downspouts direct runoff away from footings to help maintain stable soil conditions around each post. Consistent patio cover drainage relies on keeping these gutters clear, which only requires occasional rinsing.

What’s the typical max projection and beam spacing for a solid flat cover?

Single-skin solid panels can be manufactured in a wide range of lengths depending on the gauge of material used. Insulated roof panels can be made in lengths up to 30 feet, and spans greater than 24 feet require a splice.

Final spans and beam spacing are determined by engineering specifications and the local snow or wind loads for the project location.

Can I integrate skylight panels or clear sections for daylight?

Skylights for single-skin solid panels are available in opaque options up to 20 feet. Skylights for insulated roof panels are available in clear or opaque options up to 24 feet.

How are ceiling fans, lights, and heaters mounted on a solid flat panel?

Installers use approved mounting solutions designed for aluminum roof panels. Wiring is routed through protected paths inside the structure so fixtures attach securely and maintain a clean, finished appearance on the aluminum patio roof.

Do solid flat covers reduce interior cooling loads near sliding doors or windows?

Yes. Shade from a solid flat roof cover limits direct sunlight on nearby windows and doors, which helps reduce the amount of heat entering the home from your outdoor living space. By blocking direct exposure during peak sun hours, the covered area can support more stable indoor temperatures near large glass surfaces.

What are the best foundations or footings for different soils?

Most projects use concrete piers sized for local codes. Areas with expansive or unstable soil may require deeper or wider piers. Installers review site conditions during planning so the Alumawood solid patio cover has a footing system suited to the property.

How does a solid flat cover handle thermal expansion to prevent creaks or oil-canning?

Aluminum naturally expands and contracts as temperatures change. The solid flat roof cover is engineered to accommodate that movement so the panels stay secure and maintain a clean, stable appearance across seasons. This helps reduce the chance of panel distortion during warmer periods.

Can a solid flat cover be converted to a screened room later?

Yes. Many aluminum patio roof layouts allow the structure to support future screening. As long as the posts and roof design include suitable attachment points, screen framing can be added later without modifying the main roof.

What maintenance keeps drainage and finish looking clean long-term?

A quick rinse with water keeps the aluminum patio covers looking clean. Mild soap can be used for heavier buildup. Keeping the gutters clear supports effective patio cover drainage and helps the roofing materials maintain a clean, finished appearance over time.
