What is a screen?
Screens are frames, which are fitted with a type of mesh. Each mesh is designed to achieve a specific goal e.g. Insect Mesh - to keep flies out; Pollen Mesh - to filter Pollen; Pet Mesh - to keep pets safely inside or keep unwanted guests out. A screen is placed over a window or door, acting as a 'barrier' or filter. Screening has become increasingly popular because it provides a long term solution to recurring problems.
Why use a screen?
As the saying goes 'prevention is better than cure' - so it makes sense to keep flies or other insects out of your property rather than letting them in then chasing them around with a fly spray or swatter! In the same way, a Pollen Screen can be used to filter pollen entering a room, addressing different pollen types as the season progresses. Screens can be either part of or a complete solution, depending on the problem and represent a long term solution because they can be re-used year after year.
Some terms you may come across
If you're new to screening, there will be some terms that you might not have heard before.
