The screen you choose affects visibility, ventilation, bug protection, durability, and cost. Here’s a guide.
Standard Fiberglass (18×14)
Most common and economical. Good visibility, adequate airflow, blocks mosquitoes. Lasts 7–12 years in Florida’s UV.
No-See-Um (20×20)
Finer mesh blocks tiny biting midges that pass through standard screen. Essential near the coast. Slightly reduced airflow.
Super Screen
Premium vinyl-coated polyester. Better visibility, higher tear resistance, better UV resistance, improved wind performance. Costs more but lasts substantially longer.
Pet-Resistant
Much more durable against normal pet contact, scratching, and leaning. Worth it if you have dogs or cats.
