Venice Fescue Light

Name: Venice Fescue Light
Brand: Everlast

Venice Fescue Light is a balanced-performance artificial turf designed for general residential landscapes, offering exceptional softness, natural-looking appearance, and moderate durability for typical residential use.

With a 1.5-inch pile height and 55 oz face weight, this turf provides a balanced combination of surface structure and comfort. Its drainage rate of 30 in/hr provides lower drainage capacity compared to high-performance systems, positioning it within its category based on its structural and material characteristics.

Structural Performance

Venice Fescue Light provides basic durability with some limitations under heavier use. Polyethylene fibers offer good durability with moderate resistance to wear and deformation, while high turf density enhances durability and stability under repeated use, thick yarn fibers enhance durability and maintain structural integrity under repeated use.

Moderate drainage allows partial flow but may retain moisture under load.

Safety

Venice Fescue Light may support accessible use, but no formal ADA compliance documentation is available. Lower drainage may lead to moisture retention, affectinging usability.

Venice Fescue Light by Everlast is prone to heat buildup and may reach higher surface temperatures. Moderate pile height allows airflow and reduces heat retention, while polyethylene fibers reduce heat retention compared to other materials. No infrared-reflective technology is specified, which may increase heat retention.

Comfort / Experience

Venice Fescue Light provides a soft and cushioned surface feel. Optimal pile height (1.5") enhances fiber flexibility and cushioning. However, higher yarn denier (12540) increases fiber stiffness, limiting softness and padding.

Venice Fescue Light by Everlast offers a natural-looking surface with moderate visual variation. Multiple thatch tones enhance depth and closely mimic the layered look of natural grass, while optimal pile height creates natural depth and proportion, closely resembling real grass. Uniform blade shape may limit texture variation, making the surface appear more artificial.

Maitenance Scores

Venice Fescue Light provides moderate maintenance requirements with manageable cleaning effort. Structured blade profiles resist debris accumulation and support easier cleaning, while polyethylene fibers reduce debris adhesion and support easier cleaning. Dense turf structure may reduce accessibility, increasing maintenance effort.

Venice Fescue Light by Everlast provides moderate debris resistance with some accumulation over time. Structured blade profiles promote debris shedding and reduce buildup. Denser turf structure begins to restrict debris movement.

Venice Fescue Light provides excellent resistance to matting, maintaining fiber structure and recovery under repeated use. Structured blade profiles improve resistance to flattening and support strong fiber recovery, while high turf density enhances structural support and helps maintain fiber position, thicker yarn fibers improve resilience and reduce flattening under use.

Installation Efficiency

Venice Fescue Light offers strong backing stability with good resistance to movement and deformation. High-performance secondary backing materials enhance structural integrity and improve fiber lock, while high tuft bind strength securely anchors fibers, reducing pull-out and improving stability, woven or advanced backing construction enhances dimensional stability and structural consistency.

Venice Fescue Light by Everlast allows precise seam alignment with minimal visibility when installed correctly. Tight stitch gauge allows precise alignment and improves seam invisibility, while high density supports good seam concealment.

Venice Fescue Light provides moderate cutting ease with some resistance during installation. Moderate face weight allows efficient cutting. Rigid backing materials may increase resistance during cutting.
