Mounted on the OUTSIDE of west-facing windows. Block 90% of solar heat before it ever hits the glass — the most effective solar control money can buy.
Interior shades reduce heat after the sun has already warmed your window glass. Exterior solar screens stop heat outside the window — about 3x more effective at reducing AC load. For west-facing rooms in St. George, SLC, and southern-exposure homes, exterior screens are the highest-impact solution.
We install fixed and motorized retractable exterior solar screens — Renson, Phantom Outdoor, Texas Sun Screens. Charcoal mesh is the standard color (preserves view, hides dirt).
Permanently mounted. Cheapest, most durable. Year-round.
