Manufactured grass does not stay as cool as natural grass which has water running through it, but it does not absorb and radiate heat like pavement, rock, or brick. Even during Austin’s summer heat, your lawn will remain pleasantly functional. On those days that are extremely hot, you can hose off your lawn to cool it down. We also recommend using T°Cool Infill with your turf installation because it cools the artificial grass by 30° – 50°F through evaporative cooling.
