Do Solar Screens Work?

A solar screen is a specially designed screen mesh that serves to mitigate the effect of the sun’s rays coming into a patio or other outdoor living space. This keeps the enclosed space cooler, allowing you to more comfortably enjoy the space during the warm parts of the year.

But the question is, “Do solar screens work as advertised?” Generally speaking, the answer is yes. The best of these screens are made of special insulating materials that effectively absorb heat, as opposed to radiating it. The result is far less heat transfer into your outdoor living space.

Of course, like any product, there is variance among the performance of different brands and even among varying product lines of a single brand. So, the best way to ensure that your new solar screen will work as advertised is to work with a company that offers motorized screens from a well-known and respected manufacturer. Fortunately, you have found a company that does just that in Next Century Screens. We exclusively install retractable screens made by Phantom Screens, an esteemed manufacturer that uses only the highest quality mesh materials to ensure optimal performance.
