Why Are Window Screens Important For My House

It is vital to us at Green Eco Solutions to provide solid, long-lasting Window Screens with the Windows we sell. We understand how crucial these screens are to homeowners. When you open your windows to let the fresh air in, Window Screens act as a barrier to keep bugs from entering your home. They prevent a variety of pests from exploiting your windows as a way into your home.

What Are Window Screens?

You probably don’t see the Window Screen when you gaze out your window. It fits snuggly in your window opening adding a second layer of protection to your home’s windows. Window Screens are available in a wide array of materials including fiberglass, aluminum, polyester, stainless steel, copper and other materials. Window Screens are crucial. However, keeping pests out is only one of the many reasons to keep your Window Screens in good shape. Here are a few more reasons why Window Screens are important to your home.

• Attractiveness

When it comes to selling a property, one of the first things a real estate agent would recommend is having all of your Window Screens replaced. They understand that damaged or filthy displays make potential purchasers think, “If they didn’t take care of their Window Screens, what else did they neglect?”
Window Screens that are clean and well-maintained give an excellent first impression. Shiny, well-kept screens will add appeal to the overall appearance of your property when visitors arrive

• Improved Air Quality

It’s been proven that keeping your windows open for a breath of fresh air improves your focus and increases ventilation in your home. Poor ventilation, especially if you reside in an apartment building or townhome, can raise your risk of sickness and other health problems. Cleaning your Window Screens aids ventilation and promotes adequate airflow into and out of your home.

• Added Security

Debris, bug invasions, and misdirected baseballs are just some of the things that might destroy your windows. Window Screens give an extra layer of protection to your windows, protecting them from harmful bugs, webs, and insects, as well as debris that is blown around during a storm. It will not completely protect your window glass from a baseball, but it will lessen the impact!

• Dirty Windows

Screens not only add to your home’s curb appeal when they are in good operating order and kept clean, but they may also assist in keeping your external window glass clean. Dirt won’t spray on your window glass if your window screens are fully intact. Clean Window Screens will also improve your view experience. After all, the purpose of windows is to provide a beautiful view of the outdoors from the comfort of your home.

• Heat Absorption

Although screens cannot stop all of the sun’s UV rays, they can help to block some of the heat that would otherwise enter the room. Sure, the coatings on your Window glass, the argon or krypton gas between each pane of glass, and the insulation in your Window Frames limit heat transfer. However, Window Screens can also be beneficial in reducing heat from transferring into your home. Most importantly, Window Screens will keep pests out of your home and prevent them from gnawing holes in them. Nothing will let heat into and out of your home faster than a mouse hole or carpenter ant damage.

• Water Problems

When your screens are in good working order, they can assist in deflecting rainwater. Water constantly accumulating on a window is a receipt for a disaster. Water has a way of finding its way inside and causing mold to grow. Mold can also grow on your Window Screens. A clean, well-functioning Window Screen, on the other hand, resists water and mold.

How to Replace Window or Storm Door Screens?

Window Screens can be pierced or ripped, but Window Screen repairs are simple and can be completed in a matter of minutes as long as the frame is in good condition. Even with clean or new Window Screens, there are some concerns that only Energy-Efficient Window upgrades can fully resolve, such as insulation issues, Window condensation, and overall wear and tear of your current windows.
