Turf Hub Santa Barbara Blend Pro Artificial Grass
TurfHub Santa Barbara Blend Pro is a durable artificial grass designed for medium to high foot traffic. It features a 1 7/8 inch pile height, a 76 oz face weight, and a C shaped blade with a center spine for extra strength and realistic recovery.The turf uses a field/olive green yarn color and a brown/green thatch layer to mimic real Bermuda grass. It is made from polyethylene (PE) and features CoolFlo technology. This yarn shape increases airflow to lower the surface temperature of the grass.The backing is made of a 2 layer polyurethane material. It uses a punch hole drainage system that drains over 30 inches per hour. This makes it safe and clean for pets and heavy rain. It comes with a 15 year warranty. The blade curve prevents the turf from laying flat after being stepped on. An integrated vertical spine provides maximum resilience, allowing the blades to spring back up under high foot traffic. The C-shape design and yarn composition increase surface airflow, reducing heat retention compared to traditional flat-blade synthetic turf. Delivers a realistic, non-reflective appearance under direct sunlight.

Installation & Care Notes
Installing Santa Barbara Blend Pro from TurfHub requires a multi-step process for best results. This premium artificial turf uses a 1 7/8 inch pile height, dual-layer polyurethane backing, and 3D wave blades to mimic real grass. Dig out the existing lawn or soil to a depth of 3 to 4 inches. Add a bender board or concrete edge around the perimeter to contain the turf base. Tamp the exposed dirt until it is firm.Add base material: Spread a 3 to 4 inch layer of decomposed granite or crushed rock. Moisten the rock, compact it to 90% density, and ensure it slopes for drainage. Roll out a permeable weed fabric over the compacted base. Overlap the edges by 6 inches. Lay out the TurfHub Santa Barbara Blend Pro rolls. Ensure all the grass blades face the same direction. Let the rolls sit in the sun for at least 2 hours. This makes the material easier to stretch and handle.
- Professional base preparation recommended
- Use appropriate infill for the application
- Brush fibers periodically to maintain appearance
- Rinse as needed for dust, pets, or debris
- Confirm drainage needs before installation

The TurfHub Santa Barbara Blend Pro carries a detailed 15-year manufacturer limited product warranty. This warranty outlines strict guidelines regarding what constitutes a defect, what is excluded, and who covers the labor costs. Protection against severe breakdown of the material caused by sun exposure. Coverage triggers if the turf blade pile height decreases by 50% or more due to abnormal wear. True manufacturing discoloration or fading is covered. However, the fine print notes that "slight color changes" naturally occur over time and are not valid grounds for a claim. Damage caused by localized heating or sun magnification (common when sunlight reflects off high-efficiency glass windows onto the turf) is completely excluded. The warranty only applies if the turf is installed by a professional installer. It does not cover faulty sub-base preparation, shifting, or poor drainage due to bad installation. Damage from heavy equipment, cutting, burning, pet chewing, negligence, or high-impact athletic use is excluded.
