SAN RAFAEL — Most people assume door and window screens are one-size-fits-all, but there are actually a variety of styles and options from which to choose. Whether you’re looking for increased UV protection or a clearer view, you can find a screen that meets your specific needs. Here are some popular options:
Basic screens: Conventional fiberglass screens are commonly found in homes.
Pet screens: If you have animals living in your home, a PVC-coated pet screen offers enhanced protection from damage caused by dogs and cats.
Invisible screens: Designed for those who want unobstructed views out their windows or doors, products such as UltraVue offer better transparency than conventional screen material.
Solar shade screens: For those concerned about the detrimental effects of sunlight, these screens block up to 95 percent of harmful UV rays.
Allergy screens: Products such as PollenTEC can block up to 99.9 percent of airborne pollens, which significantly benefits those who suffer from allergies.
