pergola with insulated roof 2

We added an insulated roof to our pergola, and it totally changed how we use the space. Now, even in the midday heat, the area stays cool enough to sit and read without feeling like we're in a greenhouse. The insulation keeps the temperature down and also helps block out the harsh sun, making it pleasant to be outside for much longer. It's not a full room, but it feels like a real outdoor room now, protected and comfortable.
