Is this umbrella UV proof enough for hot sun in Texas?

Yes it is, it provides descent shade. It's a little flimsy in the high winds so make sure you retract it, when your not using it

I bought this umbrella for occasional use. I'm thinking it wouldn't hold up to long-term incandescent bulb heat. It is lightweight. Hope that helps.

From what I see it will do a great job blocking the sun but it is not water proof just water resistant. Hope this helps.

Yes it has UV protection! It blocks out more sun than it looks like it would! I absolutely love this cover!! Don't know the weight but it's not really heavy! We covered our percula with it! Love it!

I would think it could withstand some rain - however, I haven't tried that as we use a Barbeque grill cover (that also covers the light) whenever we're not using the grill.

The umbrella is made of polyester. The description did not mention anything regarding UPF protection. I always slather sunscreen on our grandson, so I don't worry about the UPF protection in the umbrella itself.

Yes. I've had mine outside, with some sun exposure, and it holds up just fine.

I currently keep thr Suncast W3000 in my covered Patio. The heat here in Orlando is not up to the heat you may get in Arizona, but htis would be a guess. I would think the UV and heat there would cause this item to warp and get brittle and again this would only be a guess. If in the shade my cooler stands up very well even in the 100 plus and very high humidity.

Not sure, but on hot days, it really. I do think the umbrella material needs to be stronger. It seems to tear very easily.

Yes. i bought for this. It has UV protection. Unfortunately I have not yet had the opportunity to use it.

I used it for an outdoor potting bench, even though it's labeled for indoor use. So far there doesn't seem to be a problem, no peeling or anything, and it's been well over a year in the AZ sun. I couldn't tell you if it's actually UV resistant though.....

Yes it is. We did spray a UVB and waterproofing protectant on it as well. Our firstnone faded reall bad in the hot sun. So. Hope this one will not do that

I don't think there are any umbrellas that will completely block the sun out. The Coolaroo will provide shade like any other umbrella.

Not sure but I have the shade covering a patio in bakersfield where it's 100 plus degrees and always sunny. So far it is doing great.

As long as you don't open the sunroof it shouldn't be a problem. I bought this product for a Christmas trip on 2013 from Los Angeles to San Antonio tx, and it did an amazing job no problems at all, we encounter rain and nothing got wet it's super spacious as well. Good luck!

We live in Palm Springs and I think it will hold up fine. We have it in a shaded side of the house so it will not get direct sunlight. Has handled rain and wind well.

Mine did over the summer. I really noticed it when I bough new ones for my patio furniture. But I also live a 7000 feet where UVs are high The material though has held up through high winds, hail and sun.
