Can My Fake Grass Melt In The Heat? Queen Creek Fake Grass

 

You may wonder if it is safe to put artificial grass in your home considering the recent nationwide heat wave that has resulted in power outages and record-high temperatures in Queen Creek, AZ.

Luckily, your Luxury Turf installation won’t melt at 105 degrees and won’t melt at 150 degrees.

Here you can learn more about your Queen Creek fake grass installation and how it copes with hot temperatures.

 

Why Doesn’t Queen Creek Artificial Turf Melt?

Nylon and polyethylene, the materials most commonly used to make artificial grass today, have very high melting temperatures. Though artificial grass typically has a melting point of 175-200 degrees Fahrenheit, this might vary depending on the manufacturer and product.

This means that as long as people can live on Earth, neither extreme heat nor direct sunlight will ruin your Queen Creek artificial grass. In the end’s event of the world or if the sun suddenly becomes a lethal laser and the outdoors are no longer safe to enter, turf melt will probably be the least of our concerns.

 

When Will Fake Grass From Artificial Turf Installers Melt?

When temperatures reach 175 degrees or higher, which can happen in two circumstances, the turf may melt.

Grilling on artificial grass, mainly charcoal risks melting the grass. Therefore, placing a grill on artificial grass is not a clever idea. If you intend to grill frequently or have a barbecue installed, consult your installers about the ideal location.

If your lawn is Queen Creek artificial grass and you have a gas grill, you can securely grill without worrying about splattering hot coals. If you like to cook, consider this while designing your outside area so you may place a grill where the heat won’t harm your artificial grass.

Sunlight reflected from surrounding windows is the second (and more frequent) reason turf melts. But unfortunately, this also doesn’t happen all that often.

This only happens with specific Low-E windows, a type of energy-efficient window.

These windows have an exterior pane coated with a substance reflecting heat radiation, bringing the interior temperature down.

The windows are a severe problem. Low-E window reflections have caused vinyl cladding and cars to melt. If your artificial grass melts, you do not have a low-quality product. In addition, temperatures of 175 degrees Fahrenheit or above are too high for some materials to endure for an exceptionally long time.

Planning your landscaping such that grass is far from windows is one way to stop your grass from turning to mush in the heat.

 

Use Queen Creek Artificial Turf Installers To Avoid Fake Grass Damage

Even if you can’t solve the issue by designing around it, have no fear! Many coatings can be applied to Low-E windows to eliminate reflections.

Screens are another option, though it’s conceivable you won’t like the look of a permanently installed screen on your window. Again, we won’t advocate any of the many coating and screen solutions out there. They exist and will prevent your grass from having any chances of damage.
