The essential feature of bioclimatic pergolas is their adjustable slats. Whether automatic or manual, these slats produce a natural circulation of air. This system regulates the outside temperature, providing optimum management of all the vagaries of the climate.

Set against the house, your pergola will provide extra protection against the cold. If a ray of sun comes through in winter, opening the slats will warm your home. And conversely, in summer, when the heat is on, you can close the roof to protect your home from excessively high temperatures.

Whatever the season, you'll save money on heating or air conditioning!

Choosing the location for your pergola

There are two main types of pergola:

the lean-to pergola, attached to the wall of the house ;
the freestanding pergola, which does not need to be attached to a wall. Fitted with 4 pillars, it requires no support.

With a bioclimatic pergola, you can choose the ideal location to suit your needs. If you're thinking of installing a pergola on your terrace, the fact that it's bioclimatic means that you won't have to worry about sunlight, for example. If you're worried about darkening the adjoining room, the adjustable slats will put your mind at rest! If you opt for a self-supporting bioclimatic pergola, you'll have an unlimited choice of locations. You can tame the elements!

So, wherever you choose, neither wind, rain nor overpowering UV rays will spoil your moments of conviviality and serenity.
