UV damage protection

Protect Your Turf and Your Home with solar screens

Solar window screens offer an effective solution for mitigating the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation in homes, particularly in sun-intense regions like Las Vegas. These specialized mesh screens are designed to block a significant portion of UV rays—typically between 65% and 90%—before they penetrate window glass. This level of protection not only helps preserve the integrity of indoor furnishings, such as hardwood floors, carpets, and upholstery, by preventing fading and deterioration but also contributes to maintaining a cooler indoor environment .

The health benefits of solar window screens are also noteworthy. Prolonged exposure to UV radiation is a known risk factor for skin cancer and other skin-related ailments. By filtering out a substantial amount of UV rays, solar screens can reduce the risk of such health issues for occupants. A study highlighted in PubMed emphasizes the importance of UV-protective measures in residential settings to aid in the prevention of skin cancer .

Beyond UV protection, solar window screens contribute to energy efficiency. By blocking a significant amount of solar heat, they can reduce indoor temperatures, leading to decreased reliance on air conditioning systems. This reduction in cooling needs can result in energy savings, making solar screens a cost-effective and environmentally friendly addition to homes .
