Don’t Forget About Screens for Replacement Windows

When your windows are old and deteriorating, chances are the screens are as well. Screens primarily keep insects out of your home, as well as dust, dirt, and other debris. When you live somewhere as nice as Rocklin, CA, it’s easy to keep those windows open on nice days all year long. But that doesn’t mean you want to invite the bugs to come in with the breeze. When you are looking into replacement windows, it’s a good time to look into new screens to go with them. There are functional and decorative screens that exist today that far outdo anything you had in the past. Here are a few things that you might look into.



Solar Screening
Solar screens are unique, woven mesh screens that can block up to 90% of the sun’s rays. When you are struggling against the California sun, that can be very important on a hot day. The screens themselves help to lower heating and cooling costs and they can reduce sun damage on flooring and furniture as well. When you add to those screens new replacement windows, you have nothing but the best insulation.



Retractable Screens
Sometimes you want the screens in the windows because you want to open them and hide away in your home from the bugs. Other times, you want the screens open and out of the way so you can see the view. Well, today there are screens that roll up and down like a shade on casement windows. You can roll them away to protect them from the elements or so that you can better see the view. When they are up and out of the way, you get more light into the room.



High-Transparency Screens
When you want a crisp, clear view, but you want a screen to protect your home, you can get screens made of finer fabric than others. You get more light into the room with screens that are almost invisible. Your home has a better curb appeal as well!



Conventional Fiberglass Screens
These durable, functional screens allow in both the light and the breeze. They give you a good level of clarity and durability along with long-lasting lifespans.
