Do louvers protect from rain?

Table of Contents

Yes, properly designed louvers provide effective rain protection while maintaining ventilation. Key factors include blade angle (typically ≥30°), overlap design, and aerodynamic profiles to deflect water.

At Xtra Metal Group, our aluminum louvers integrate precision-engineered drainage channels and anti-capillary gaps, tested to withstand wind-driven rain per ASTM E283 standards. Customization ensures optimal performance for local climates—e.g., tighter blade spacing for tropical downpours.

With 30+ years in architectural metal systems, we balance functionality with aesthetics, using marine-grade alloys and powder coatings to enhance durability. Our global project portfolio includes hurricane-prone coastal resorts and high-rise façades, validating our solutionsrain-deflection reliability.

As an aluminum ceiling & facade manufacturing engineer, I spent years immersed in design and production for things like exterior walls and ceilings. Seeing the gap between technical specs and practical understanding sparked my desire to share my knowledge clearly and make engineering materials accessible to more people.
