Most patio umbrellas use a center pole to keep the umbrella upright and standing. Many times these traditional type patio umbrellas are placed in a hole in the center of outdoor table or attached to a solid base at the bottom that will keep it from falling over. This type of traditional patio umbrella set up works very well in many situations. However, in this type of configuration, the table gets the most shade benefit leaving the occupants partially exposed to the sun's harmful UV rays.
Offset patio umbrellas have the support pole away from the center of the umbrella making it easier to shade a particular area such as a deck, pool, or even seating arrangement. The possibilities of uses are almost limitless for offset patio umbrellas. In addition, these non traditional patio umbrellas can be adjusted to an almost infinite number of positions. You can tilt the up or down or even rotate it a full 360 degrees without having to ever move the umbrella base. This allows you to position your umbrella based on the sun's movements, keeping you under shade at all times.
The addition of an offset patio umbrella will add style to any outdoor seating area, patio deck, resort and spa, restaurant patio, or any outdoor swimming pool. No need to place a table under your patio umbrella with an offset center post. This allows you to arrange the area you want shaded any way you want. You can place chairs or arrange your favorite outdoor lounge furniture, keep cool, and protect your outdoor furniture all at the same time.
