Turf surface temperature in direct sunlight runs higher than natural grass — typically fifteen to twenty degrees above ambient air temperature. We recommend shade structures for primary play areas and selecting lighter-colored turf products for spaces with full afternoon sun exposure. Infill selection also affects heat retention.
