In our area, a good
Solar
Screen Austin TX supplier is important. If you are moving to
the Austin Texas area, be prepared for the long super hot summers we get here in
Austin. It's that kind of thing that when you experience this
unrelenting heat, that you just want to do what you can to get out
of it, to find yourself in a much cooler place. Being hot is
NO fun, and we have become accustomed to our nice air-conditioners,
we don't like to be hot if we don't have to. Even with the help of
an air-conditioner, the relentless 100+ degree day after day of heat
proves to be too much for the air-conditioners. Now, if you
live in a cave of sorts without any windows, it won't be as hot, but
most homes in the
Austin TX area are chalked full of windows.
It's these windows that let heat in to a home. The sun's rays
penetrate a window making the glass of that window HOT and
everything else hot the sun's rays come in contact with. All of this
heat radiates in to the home significantly contributing to the
warmth within your house. The warmer it is in the house, the
harder the air-conditioner has to work to cool off that warm air.
The more the A/C has to work, the more electricity that is being
used, which yields higher utility bills.
An
Austin Solar Window Screen mounted
on the outside of a window will serve as a shading device providing
shade for that window. If the sun's rays can not come in
contact with the window's glass to make the glass hot or get in to
the home through the window because the windows are being shaded by
our
Austin Solar Screens, the windows nor the area around the
windows will get hot.
I tell people often that they
can relate a warm oven to that of a warm window. Think of how hot that
kitchen gets from a warm oven. That heat is trapped in that oven, but the glass gets hot, therefore that hot glass acts as
a heating element in your kitchen. With windows all around
your home not being shaded by solar screens, you have heating
elements all over your home just like that of the kitchen. Solar
Screens will eliminate these windows form getting hot, keeping that
heat from the sun out of the house.
Some people think they can
put blinds or shutters up to provide the needed shade for the inside
of their home. Yes, you need blinds or shutters for things
like evening privacy, but as far as helping the inside of your home
stay cooler that just isn't the case. Sure the sun's
rays are not pounding things like furniture or the floors making
them hot with blinds and shutters in the closed position, but what
is happening is the sun's rays are now pounding the back side of the
blinds and shutters, making them SUPER hot. Basically with the
blinds and shutters you are somewhat trapping the heat between them
and the windows. Go touch your blinds that are getting hit by
the sun, they are SUPER hot. With our Austin Solar Screens, the
sun's rays never get a chance to heat up the glass or the blinds and
shutters. The sun's rays will not find their way in to the home at
all. And, as an added benefit to having the solar window screens,
during the day you will now be able to open those blinds and
shutters, as the windows will be shaded from the outside by the
solar screens.
Not
all Austin Solar Screens are the same, and by no means are all of
Austin's Solar Screen
installers equal in their craft. All over Austin I see Solar
Screen jobs done by other installers that I just cringe at
the site of. It saddens me to see these jobs, and truth be
told I seem to always ask myself, "did they not know about
JoshHobbs.com Solar Screen Services"? If they did, what were
they thinking? Our installed
Austin TX Solar Screen pricing is SOOO inexpensive that it just
doesn't make any sense to me to gamble with anyone else when you
know for sure you will get the best job possible with (me) Josh
Hobbs. On my website I have three hundred plus reviews written in to
me from some of our customers, please take a few moments to read
through some of these reviews. Once you have read through a few, it'll
make it hard to argue against using me as your
Solar
Screens Austin Texas installer.
Example
of one of JoshHobbs.com's MANY AUSTIN TEXAS Solar Screen
Installations
We put solar window
screens on every window of this customer's
Austin TX Texas home with the
exception of these three small arched windows that you see here
at the front of the home. One over garage, dormer window,
one over front door (entry).
See how odd this home looks with those three
windows not covered with solar screens? We tried to convince the
customer to put
solar screens on those windows and he didn't
want to. He said it wasn't necessary. Granted one goes into the
garage, one goes into the attic and one goes into just the
entryway of the front of the house.
He's right. From a heat aspect or from a
shading aspect, screens were not needed for these windows. But
from an aesthetic aspect, it would have been wise to go ahead
and cover those windows, in my opinion.
We put solar screens on the front, left,
back and right side of the home. We put the chocolate
fabric with the tan frame. The windows of this home are made
with the tan frame. The window frames of this home are tan in
color so we matched it with our solar screen framing. Our solar
screen framing is tan, which is the same as the windows.
