Budget-Friendly Decking That Beats the Heat

We’ve spoken to a lot of homeowners over the years about their decks. We often hear that relaxing outside and enjoying your deck can be hard when it’s too hot to walk or even sit on. Maybe you’ve experienced sprinting from the safety of your cool home across the blazing hot portion of your deck to a table protected in the shade by an umbrella? If that’s an all too familiar scenario, we’ve got the perfect solution for you: heat-resistant decking.

Until recently, investing in expensive composite boards was the only way to get decking that stayed noticeably cooler. Luckily, one of our favorite companies, Trex, is changing the game yet again. The new updates to their Select® line include more affordable options that also stay cooler in full sun. As if we needed any more reasons to love Trex. 

Built for Comfort, Priced for Flexibility

With deck season right around the corner, now's the perfect time to check out Trex's new heat-resistant decking options. They're offering even more color choices at a better price. All three new color options have a smooth grain pattern and light embossing for a more natural look.
The new color lineup:

• Whiskey Barrel: A rich, rustic brown with refined streaking.
• Malted Barley: A warm, earthy shade with soft grey undertones.
• Millstone: A natural, weathered grey with subtle shadowed depth.

This update is especially noteworthy because these are the first mid-tier Trex boards to include SunComfortable™ heat-mitigating technology. The material is engineered to reflect more heat, helping keep the surface cooler than other boards in similar colors.

In a place like Central Oregon that sees scorching temperatures in the summer, it’s no surprise that your deck can feel like hot lava. Trex’s new line gives homeowners a decking option that creates a more comfortable outdoor space without the high costs that traditionally accompany heat-resistant composite decking.
