For this solar screens installation, we installed a solar window screen on every window of this home. We installed a total of 29 solar screens. We shaded 29 windows of this Round Rock TX home with our solar screens.

The installed cost for these 29 solar screens was $1,700

Here over the front door there is a large rectangular grid patterned window with a half circle on top of it. For this window we were able to cheat it by installing one big large solar screen. Typically if you have two windows on top of each other like this to do not open, make one solar screen to fit over the both of them.

All 90% solar screens.

This homeowner wanted all 90% solar screens on their windows. They did not leave one window uncovered, and they covered each and every one of them with the dark 90% solar screen fabric.

We typically try to talk people down the idea of all 90% solar screens. The reason is it is just not needed. Sometimes people I want them. Sometimes people want the home to be dark and it’s the feel and look that they are looking for. Otherwise if your windows do not get 4 hours of Sun, our recommendation is to use the 80% solar screen fabric.

For the right side here we install (2) 30 by 84 inch solar screens there on the 1st floor. On the second floor we installed (2) 22 by 72 inch tall solar screens. And there’s one horizontal sliding window.

The homeowner even chose to put the 90% solar screens under their back patio.

What solar screen fabric color is best?

I would have also have liked to have seen this home owner have implemented a patio porch shade. One that rolls up and down.

These screens look dark in these pictures.

It was a bit of a dark and dreary day when these pictures were taken.

Because of that the solar screens looks Stark. These Solar screens look really dark. If it was well lit, if the light from the sun was beating down on the house, these solar screens would not look as dense and dark as they do through this camera lens.

This patio would have been great for a patio screen.  One that rolls up and down to provide shade.  A roll up shade screen.

The homeowner did not want a solar window screen over their back patio door.

Sometimes you don’t need a solar screen on the back door. This is a fine example of when you do not. That back door receives zero sun.  And it doesn’t look bad to not have a solar screen on that back door. So aesthetically it’s fine. Here are some other examples of when you do want a solar screen on a door and when you do not.

Solar screens provide great bug protection, so there’s no need for your existing old window bug screens.
