HAIL CANOPIES FOR CAR DEALERSHIPS
Auto Dealerships face some unique challenges when it comes to protecting their lot against hail. This page is a road map on how to solve them.
Challenges For Car Dealerships
From our discussions with hundreds of Car Dealers – from Texas to Edmonton and from Kansas City to Denver, these are the key challenges:
1. The system needs to be out of the way so you do not lose any parking spaces or display areas. Poles are like a magnet for bad or inattentive drivers. Sooner or later they will hit them.
2. The street appeal of the showroom is how people find you. So the hail protection needs to be neat and clean and not hide the showroom.
3. Lights. Sunlight to make the cars shine and lot lighting for security is important – so don’t mess with the lighting.
4. Cost. You need protection, but need it at a good price that makes financial sense.
5. Fuss. Your business is selling cars, so make the system strong, reliable, and no hassle.

RELATED CASE STUDIES
Wind Protection
The operators at an energy generation facility with air-coolers were frustrated. Every time the wind blew, their generation efficiency dropped.
Wind Protection for Solar Field
A solar field supplier wished to refine their design to cut the cost of the mirror supports in a windy location. A related side benefit was that they could have the parabolic mirrors orientated to continue to generate electricity in wind storms that would otherwise require the mirrors to be rotated to the “stow” position facing into the ground.
