Retractable Awning Rain Gutter - Gimmick or Useful?




While other local retractable awning companies try to dismiss our blatantly obvious higher quality, stronger, and more capable Buzzman Retractable Awning with our exclusive super wide and super deep Built-In Front Bar Rain Gutter claiming it's just a "gimmick," we laugh at that false argument proven with videos and > 25,000 Buzzman Retractable Awnings still in operation all across South Florida. Of course, common sense dictates that you should try to keep your Buzzman Retractable Awning Rain Gutter free & clear of debris, which takes all of 30 sec. for a quick sweep or rinse with a hose. Watch the heavy rain spill out the very front sides of our Buzzman Retractable Awning; you be the judge! :) ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZlS0w8vf8E

Perhaps the other companies are just jealous?  Seems like they'll do and say anything just to make a sale, even if it means spewing out fiction instead of facts.  Do the research, and you will find the truth.   www.BuzzmanAwning.com

Think ALL Retractable Awnings are alike? ...Think Again.



When the research is done and all the right questions are asked, it becomes blatantly apparent the Buzzman Retractable Awning is the Highest Quality, Strongest, & Most Capable Retractable Awning in the Industry!   Made from 100% Aircraft Aluminum Alloy with thick, triangle structures inside, only the Buzzman Retractable Awning can Remain Fully Open & Extended All Day & Night for 365 Days/Year!

There's one which stands out from all the rest...the Buzzman's heavy-duty weight frame allows it to stay out and will only automatically retract in when the included wind sensor detects a 25-30MPH wind gust (vs. a slight 10-15MPH breeze with all other lighter weight hollow tube retractable awning brands).  From the Sunbrella marine-grade awning fabric with a 10-year warranty to the Buzzman's exclusive Lifetime frame warranty, it's obvious which retractable awning is truly unique and which one is the Best in the Industry.

KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GETTING FOR YOUR MONEY! Buzzman Awning Frame vs Hollow Tube Awning Frames

KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GETTING FOR YOUR MONEY! Buzzman Awning Distributors is the only retractable awning company that actually brings samples of our retractable awning frames to show YOU in person...so YOU can see and feel the difference! Below is a recent picture of our Buzzman Retractable Awning frame front bar (on the left) vs. our 'nearest' local competitors 2 retractable awning frame front bars (the 2 on the right)...notice our unique, thick aircraft aluminum alloy structure inside compared with their thin, lightweight aluminum hollow tubes. Also take note of our very wide & deep Buzzman front bar Rain Gutter (far left) compared with their narrow & shallow front bar rain gutter (one in the middle); while our exclusive front bar Buzzman Retractable Awning Rain Gutter works exceptionally well even in heavy South Florida downpours, theirs does not (which is why they often "wrap" their awning fabric right over their rain gutter to conceal it). It's no surprise since Buzzman was THE INVENTOR of the Retractable Awning Rain Gutter many years ago! If you get another estimate, ALWAYS ask to see and feel a sample of their retractable awning frame. BE LEERY of other company representatives who do not bring you actual samples of their awning frames to see and hold for yourselves...ask to see & feel a 1FT piece of their frame front bar; not just their brackets! And don't let them sweet talk you just by showing you old pictures that may look similar to our exclusive Buzzman Awning frame; we're the only company that has our exclusive Buzzman awning frame with the triangle structures inside, thick forged aircraft aluminum alloy extrusion frame with 316 marine stainless steel hardware and super wide & deep rain gutter. All retractable Awnings are NOT alike; our BEST in the INDUSTRY retractable awning frame (pictured on the left) is EXCLUSIVE to Buzzman!!!!

Our standard Buzzman Retractable Awning frame front bar (above on the left) VS the other companies "Hollow Tube" retractable awning frame front bars (on the right); one touch of ours and theirs in your hands and the differences in Quality, Weight, & Strength are so dramatic that you'll understand why people choose Buzzman!

2014 Florida Building Code for Retractable Awnings - WANT TO KNOW THE FACTS?

WANT TO KNOW THE FACTS? What are the Florida Bldg Code - Wind Load Requirements for Retractable Awnings? We now must adhere to the 2014 Florida Building Code, so what does it say about Retractable Awnings? What about this "Miami/Dade County Hurricane Code Approval" often talked about & promoted by one other company? What does it all mean to the S FL homeowner? Don't be fooled by other companies so-called hurricane code approvals and YouTube videos showing their retractable awning tested in high winds while their awning is at a 0 degree angle with hurricane force winds hitting it straight on at a 0 degree angle...that NEVER happens and it's NOT a real-world test!  It's all smoke and mirrors!!  DON'T be MISLEAD by a blurry "smoke & mirrors" sales & marketing tactic intended to confuse, mislead, & deceive consumers...the Miami/Dade Code Approved retractable awning documents state it MUST be closed at 45MPH+ winds while IN FACT, the latest Florida Bldg Code and ALL S. FL cities REQUIRE something very different!

The State of Florida carried the 2010 Florida Building Code forward to the new recently adopted 2014 Florida Building Code (now Florida Law as of June 30, 2015)...see below picture. Florida REQUIRES Retractable Awnings to be able to withstand 115MPH 3-second wind gusts WHILE the RETRACTABLE AWNING is in the OPEN & EXTENDED POSITION (2014 FBC Sec. 3105.5.1). Call the Florida Building Commission in Tallahassee, FL at (850) 487-1824 to verify!
ONLY our BUZZMAN RETRACTABLE AWNINGS are certified and FL Hurricane Wind Code / Wind Load APPROVED for 115MPH 3-sec wind gusts while fully open & extended! BE LEERY of other company reps who talk only of other bldg codes or their Miami/Dade County approval...always ask to see documentation that shows their retractable awnings meet or exceed this FL Bldg Code (2014 FBC Sec. 3105.5.1). The much lower standard found in the Miami/Dade County Wind Code Approval bypasses the actual FL Bldg Code requirements and clearly shows that their much lighter weight, subpar, hollow-tube awning frame MUST be fully CLOSED & RETRACTED at winds of 45MPH and greater; if NOT, the company will VOID YOUR WARRANTY if their awning is ever left out in higher winds & damaged (even if left out by accident, in the event of a power failure & even when equipped with a wind sensor). They simply use this 'exception' to Florida law as a way OUT in the event their awning is damaged in 45+ MPH winds or heavy rain & thunderstorms...they call it "Owner Negligence" in their official Warranty documents.
AND this is just one of many reasons why Buzzman Retractable Awnings are superior to all the others and why customers who compare ALWAYS go with Buzzman!
