To learn more about what to look for in your search for the best artificial grass for pets, read on.
UV Protection to Minimize Discomfort and Heat from the Sun
One of the most important considerations when selecting artificial grass for pets is how it performs under the sun. The summers in Toronto and throughout Southern Ontario can reach scorching temperatures, and standard synthetic turf can trap heat, making it uncomfortable, if not dangerous, for your pets’ paws. Choosing artificial grass with built-in UV protection helps reflect the sun’s rays and significantly reduces surface temperature. This means your pet can safely play outside without the risk of burns or overheating. Echoing Green offers high-quality pet turf options that are engineered for comfort, with UV-stabilized fibers that keep the surface cooler and more pet-friendly throughout the summer.
Temperature-Controlling and Long-Lasting Infill
Your pets can play rough, so it’s important that your artificial grass installation in Toronto can keep up. At Echoing Green, we use high-performance, non-toxic T°Cool infill for installing artificial grass in backyards, pet runs, and other high-traffic areas. This advanced infill technology actively reduces surface heat by absorbing moisture and releasing it slowly to cool the turf over time, which is perfect for energetic dogs who love to run and roll around. Not only does T°Cool enhance comfort, but it also extends the life of the artificial by protecting it against changing temperatures and wear and tear. When installed by Echoing Green, our pet turf is a resilient and pet-safe outdoor landscaping option that is available.
Skilled Installation to Prevent Lifting or Bubbling
It’s important to ensure that your artificial grass installation is fastened and secured correctly to prevent bubbling, lifting, or shifting over time, especially in areas with heavy pet traffic. Lifting of turf not only reduces the visual appeal of seamless natural-looking artificial grass, but it can also create trip hazards or uncomfortable patches for your pets. At Echoing Green, we specialize in professional artificial grass installation in Toronto, ensuring that your pet turf is securely anchored, level, and designed to last through daily use. Our installation techniques seamlessly hide seams and weak spots, creating a seamless surface that dogs can enjoy freely.
Easy, Toxin-Free Cleanup and Maintenance
Our materials are 100% lead-free and contain no harmful toxins, making them ideal for households with pets. Cleanup is also made simple with our effective drainage that allows for waste to be picked up and rinsed away with water and gentle cleaning solutions. It’s a cleaner, safer alternative to natural grass that won’t get muddy or worn down by pets. You can also use AquaKlor to disinfect your surface from pet debris and bacteria, and our custom-made EchoFresh can eliminate odours and leave an inviting summertime aroma of freshly cut grass on your lawn.
Choose the Perfect Pile Height for Your Pet Turf
Some dogs love plush, long grass they can sink into, while others might prefer a shorter, denser turf for playing fetch or lounging. At Echoing Green, we offer artificial grass in a variety of pile heights and textures to match your and your pets’ preferences. Whether you want a soft lawn for napping or a sturdy space for high activity, we help you find the right balance between durability and coziness. For help choosing the best artificial grass for your home and your family, contact the Echoing Green team. Our experts are here to guide you through your installation process so you can maximize the functionality and comfort of your outdoor spaces.
