Everyone loves a barbeque but the weather often plays spoilsport, making the famed Aussie BBQ skills a seasonal affair. Bad weather from drizzles to cold spells can be enough to dampen even the most ardent garden chefs.

Louvretec Australia has a solution.

Louvretec’s aluminium airfoil sun louvres allow for light, shade, airflow and temperature control. Available in motorised or hand operable options, these sun louvre systems not only assure privacy, security, and wind and sun control, but also enhance the design aesthetic of any home or building. 

How can weather affect cooking?

With your beloved barbeque in the garden or on the back deck, bad weather can quickly start causing problems. Strong winds can blow ash out of your barbeque and mess up your beautiful setting. The wind can also affect your barbeque’s performance by manoeuvring the heat away from the meat above or causing the charcoal to burn quicker. With gas hobs, a sudden gust can extinguish the flame without your knowledge when pans are placed on top.

Adding airfoil sun louvres can block gusts of wind from affecting your cooking process, giving you consistent cooking conditions to create great food for you and your guests. Start with your deck, add an opening roof and close in the sides with a sun louvre system – and you can control the environment.

The benefits

By controlling airflow, Louvretec’s airfoil louvres can also expand the functionality of your kitchen. You’ll no longer have to worry about the wind blowing your freshly picked herbs off the counter or your salad off the plate. By simply adding some shelter, you can quickly transform an outdoor cooking experience into an enjoyable one.

Allowing airflow also has its benefits: simply open your louvres to allow smoke, steam and cooking smells to leave your outdoor kitchen. 

Besides protection from the elements, airfoil sun louvres also offer privacy control. Louvretec’s sun louvre systems give you and your guests a more intimate and enjoyable evening together.
