80% density blocks 80% of heat while allowing more light and outward visibility. 90% is recommended for south and west-facing windows where heat gain is highest. 95% is used where maximum heat block matters more than visibility. We recommend the right density for each window during the measure.

Quality solar screen material in our UV environment typically lasts 8–12 years before degrading and losing heat-blocking effectiveness. The aluminum frames last indefinitely. When the material reaches end of life, we can re-screen the original frames at lower cost than full replacement.

Yes, from inside looking out, visibility is good with 80% and adequate with 90% density. From outside looking in, solar screens provide significant daytime privacy — you can't easily see through them when it's brighter outside than inside.

Most El Paso homeowners keep them up year-round. Winter sun at our latitude still provides meaningful solar gain through south-facing windows. If you want to maximize passive solar heating in winter, removing south-facing screens those months is an option — our screens are designed to be removable.
