I’m writing today about something new and thrilling! You might remember the Thermally Broken or Separated Cabreeze<\/a><\/strong>\u2122 blog post a few months ago. It’s the concept that a building can have conditioned space (interior heated and\/or cooled space) that can open to the outdoors. Today it’s a real life concept!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\""Thermally\" <\/p>\n

You might be wondering… inside dining room or outdoor veranda?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

BOTH!<\/p>\n

In metropolitan areas, outdoor space is a hot commodity: unused horizontal space sells at a premium and with rain and wind and cool weather, it’s hard to justify a patio that can only be used 40-60 days per calendar year.<\/p>\n

So Crooked Pint Ale House in Apple Valley, MN did something that has never been done before: they added a Cabrio Structures<\/strong><\/a>’ thermally separated retractable Cabreeze\u2122 to their new build.<\/p>\n

Crooked Pint’s roof and wall system is one-of-a-kind. <\/strong>We basically built their ceiling and exterior wall . . .  with one dramatic benefit: everything is retractable.<\/p>\n
