INSECT VS. SOLAR ROLL-UP SCREENS

Insect Screens:
1.The most popular choice in the Houston climate, “bug screens” reduce up to 55% of UV rays and keeps mosquitoes and other insects out
2.Feature a higher openness factor to allow more natural airflow and breeze
3.Maintain visibility to the outside so that you can still enjoy your view
Solar Screens:
1.Reduce heat and glare by up to 75%, creating more shade and UV protection
2.Keep mosquitos and other pesky bugs out
3.Due to their lower openness factor, solar screens do not allow for as much natural ventilation - a benefit if you have an air-conditioned
or heated patio and want to create a climate-controlled space.
INSTALLATION & MOUNTING OPTIONS
Screens of Georgia custom patio drop screens are most often guided by a weighted slidebar that runs between parallel tracks on each side of your patio’s opening(s), allowing you to create a truly enclosed outdoor space on demand. This type of motorized retractable screens can either
be surface-mounted onto an existing structure or completely recessed into walls, columns, and ceiling cavities during the construction phase.
If your home patio or restaurant outdoor dining space does not have posts or has purely decorative columns – meaning there is not a suitable place for installing a track system – they also offer a self-tensioning cable-guided screened in patio. While it will not fully enclose the space to protect from insects, it is still an exceptional solution for on-demand solar protection.
