Premium Solar Screen, 36 " x 84", Charcoal

The New York Wire 36102 Charcoal Solar 85 Screening, 36-Inch by 84-Inch is a perfect solution for our south facing door that causes our kitchen to bake and broil depending on the temperature and season. Due to the heat that streams in through our glass storm door, we would usually have to close our wooden door, totally blocking out the lovely breezes that so often drift across our front yard and into the kitchen. This screen blocks out the heat and the blazing sunshine while allowing the breeze to flow in.I purchased sticky black velcro tape and stuck the tiny plastic hook tape to the top of the storm door, just under the "arm hardware unit". I stuck the fuzzy tape to the top of the screen and then used a zig zag stitch on my Singer to reinforce the bond to the screen, which took less than a minute. The screen adheres perfectly to the tape on the door. I rolled up the extra screen at the bottom of the door and fastened it in a tiny roll with large paper clips. This gives a rigid edge and weights the screen down but still allows the screen to float enough to permit air to flow in.I can still see everything out side and I no longer have to worry about the paint on our antique wooden door heating up and cracking. This was a successful, inexpensive solution to a long term problem.

Strength and quality in this product. This is my first time doing solar screens. I don’t do this for a living. Easy to use. Looks great on the house.

I live in Arizona and of course, the only house my wife wanted sits east to west. Super awesome for my air conditioner and electric bill. I needed to cut my electric bill and decided to purchase this blackout screen. Wow! My kids now need to put lights on in their rooms during the day! Love this purchase!

I've only had this screen up for a couple of months. But it's July in Florida and it's hot. I am seeing a temperature reduction at the windows I've installed this screening of between 4 to 5 degrees. Once I have completed installation of all the windows I'll have a better idea of effectiveness of this screening.

This is great solar screen for the price. I've built a number of screens with this material and have never been disappointed. It's easy to work with, both cutting and rolling into spline channels on screen frames. The people that I've built the screens for love it, they say it looks great and they notice a reduction in the warmth of the rooms protected by this screen. Highly recommended.

Big difference in the light entering my windows during the day. I’ve only rescreened about 40% of the windows on my house but I’ve definitely noticed the light in my bedroom in the morning being dimmer. And in the side by side pic of the new vs the old, it’s completely evident.

Recovered all my window screens using this and is holding up nicely. Ordered way more than I needed but that was definitely my fault. Time will tell if it holds up.

I tried for a few yrs to figure out a way to block the sun from my east facing windows, it would heat up the front of house in summer, and then the west windows at the end of the day. I didn't want it to be permanent because i utilize the same principle to warm my home in winter. I also didn't want to spend close to 200 a window for awnings as I have 7 on the east side and 3 on the west. After racking my brain I started "googling" and came across a website touting Solar screens. With a kit to buy. After more research I found this along with some 3M super outdoor velcro and made my own. I cut to fit outside of whole window, affixed the velcro after wiping down with rubbing alcohol. Let me tell you! It absolutely works. The difference in heat on the glass surface is amazing. As fall approaches I can peel these off velcro and roll up til next summer.The reason why I did not use these like a traditional screen is it would do no good as mounted. I have half screens on my double hung windows and on my windows that roll out the screens are behind the panes.
