PVC pipe sun protection
Wondering how to use PVC pipe to make a rather large outdoor sun protector on the brick patio sort of like a pergola with total sun block out for our 3 dogs. We live in Arizona and lost several large shade trees. So now there is no protection from the sun until later in the day.

Another option for you might be to purchase a shade sail. They come in many sizes and colors. Amazon has them if you can't find any in your area. Just go to Amazon and type in "shade sails".

PVC is susceptible to heat and may sag or get distorted. The larger the diameter, the less affect.
