Solar screens
Exterior screens in Phifer SunTex mesh, made to each window. Rooms run cooler, the view stays, and the air conditioner works less.
Shade the glass, not the room.
A window heats a room because the glass itself heats up in the sun. Blinds and tint work after that has happened. A solar screen sits outside the window and catches the sun first, so the glass stays cooler and so does the room behind it.
Our screens are Phifer SunTex mesh in an aluminum frame, sized to each window and fitted from outside. Phifer rates SunTex to block most of the sun's heat and glare while keeping outward visibility. They are pet-resistant and wash with soap and water.
- Fitted outside the glass, where the heat is
- Made to each window
- Daytime privacy from outside
- The same lifetime warranty as our covers
