My Solar Screens for Windows can SIGNIFICANTLY improve your air-conditioning efficiency by shading your home's windows from the heat of the sun.
By installing our solar window shade screens, you can prevent the sun's rays from penetrating your windows. This means that the heat generated by direct sunlight will no longer affect the interior of your home. Importantly, these solar screens also provide shade for the glass itself, preventing it from getting hot. You can confirm this by touching your window glass now to see how warm it is. By keeping your windows cool, you eliminate the significant transfer of heat from the heated glass into your home.
Solar window screens provide effective shading for your home's windows by blocking the direct, harmful rays of the sun. By doing so, they prevent your windows from heating up and becoming a significant source of unwanted heat in your home. My Austin Solar Screens are designed to reduce indoor temperatures and lessen the workload on your air conditioner. Additionally, my shade screens for Austin, TX windows can significantly decrease the electricity consumption needed to operate your air conditioning unit. Using solar screens to shield your windows from the intense Austin sun is not just beneficial; it's essential. Browse the testimonials we have posted here to see what others say about their window shading experience. Over and over, you will read how others love them.
I custom hand-make top-quality solar window shade screens using a long-lasting, PVC-coated exterior fabric woven from extremely strong and durable polyester yarns. We exclusively use the industry's best—high-end, robust solar sun screen material made in the USA. You can read our Solar Screen Guarantee for more information. There is no stronger or better material available for solar shade control. The fabric is manufactured in the U.S. and is both pet and hail resistant, making it incredibly durable. The Twitchell Textilene sun shade fabric I use is specifically designed for hot climates, like ours, to withstand the intense Texas sun. It is among the most durable and long-lasting exterior solar shade screen fabrics available. Our 80% and 90% shading fabric options are designed and manufactured to last. When creating solar window screens, durability is essential, and that is our commitment. The uniform weave design allows for excellent visibility from the inside of your home while providing outstanding daytime privacy from the outside. In our opinion, there is no better solar window screen material on the market.

Question : Is there a way to get a quick BALLPARK COST for the solar window screens? Can I get a quick rough estimate for what my out of pocket installed total cost will be?

The following calculator is based on an average-sized window of 35"w X 60"h. Using the 80% shade fabric as a base and offering an upgrade option to the 90% fabric. See here the difference between the 80% and 90% solar screen fabric.

Each window takes its own screen. if you have a set of side by side windows, that's two windows.

We are also manufacturers and installers of Commercial Roller Shades, that mount on the inside of the window, that roll up and down. For my interior commercial roll up windo shades, we make them out of a dense 97% solar shade fabric to give you optimum interior shade protection.

Question : How are your solar exterior screens made? What materials are used to make your solar window screens?
& Answer : Under my Q&A page, I have a section called solar materials Q&A's that go over all things regarding the materials I use for my solar window sun shade screens.
Question : Do I need solar outdoor screens for all of my windows? Can I get solar sun control screens for the sun stricken windows and regular insect bug screens for those that are not sun stricken.
& Answer : Yes, aesthetically you want the entire side of a home to look it's best, so you will want to use one kind of screen for the entire side. Here's the section, solar screens on some windows not all, that has 50+ pictures showing homes with sides of the home with solar sun control screens on some, but not all of the windows. These pictures are an ideal way to see for yourself what it looks like to have that unfinished look for a home. For opening windows that are not sun stricken that you want new replacement bug screens for, not solar-sun-shade-screens, you can use my insect bug screens for windows.
Question : Can I install the solar outdoor window screens on the inside of my windows?
& Answer : No, the solar screens for cooler rooms are designed to be installed on the outside of the window to provide shade for the glass. A solar sun shade screen prevents the glass from heating up by blocking the sun's rays. This helps keep the heat from a hot window from radiating into your home. If you are looking for solutions for the interior of your home, consider options like blinds, draperies, or shutters.
Question : What is your solar window sun screen guarantee?

We only offer a high-end solar outdoor window screen made out of today's highest-end materials, we do not offer low-end inferior-grade assembled solar-window-screen options.
I believe in providing only the best, most long-lasting, and strongest products, which is why I offer the best custom hand-assembled high-end solar sun window screens at affordable prices. I personally install each screen with meticulous attention to detail. For more information, please visit my Austin, TX solar screens warranty section.
Our exterior solar control screen fabric, which is made in the USA, comes in 80% and 90% options and is both hail and pet resistant. It's so durable that it cannot be torn by hand. We use 1" wide heavy-duty .024 gauge industrial-grade aluminum framing for all our solar window screens—including all but our smaller solar screens. This is the strongest and most durable framing that fits into window tracks around Austin, Texas. The 1" framing is specifically designed for heavy PVC-coated exterior solar screen fabrics like ours.
We do not cut corners by using lightweight bug screen framing. Instead, we only utilize solar screen-grade leaf springs, avoiding flimsy tension springs that are typically used for small bug screens—an issue many have in the city. For added durability, we make mitered cut corners and use aluminum metal corner inserts instead of plastic. For all opening windows, center support bars are used and concealed at the break of the window.
All our corners are mitered; we do not rely on the common industry practice of using exposed plastic. For flush clips that hold pop-in screens in tracks, I exclusively use high-quality Mae in USA die-cast metal clips that are powder-coated to match the color of the solar screen frame. This ensures longevity against the harsh Austin summer heat.
Keep in mind that anything plastic exposed to the hot Texas sun will become brittle over time. Simply put, with Josh Hobbs, you receive the highest quality products accompanied by unparalleled personal service—all at unbeatable prices for Austin, TX solar screens!
Question : How does your solar sun outdoor screen pricing compare to others?
& Answer : I publish all of my pricing, so it is easy for someone else to beat it by a few percentage points or small dollars. The difference will be trivial. Installed solar screen pricing is so modestly priced as is, that even in certain situations where my pricing is more, it's so small and minimal that it's inconsequential. What you are getting from Josh Hobbs is 19 years with well over 5,500 residential homes of experience. And the industries best, most well made solar window shade screens. I hear often from home-owners calling around on a $400 project to try to save $20, and that's just not what I am about. You are guaranteed to get the best with Josh Hobbs, which is why I proudly say
"Why gamble with the rest, when you can be guaranteed the best with JoshHobbs.com".

Question : What are the benefits of solar protection screens? Will solar window screens really benefit me, my home? How do solar-sun-screens for windows work? Will solar screens keep the heat of the sun from out of my home? Will my rooms stay cooler from using your solar screens?
& Answer : The benefits you get from the solar window shade screens shading your windows are considerable. Solar sun screens shade the windows from the outside of the window, between the glass and the sun. Like an 80% or 90% dense shade tree. There's a huge difference between window tint and solar screens because the solar-shade screens provide shade from the outside shading your windows, glass AND interior. If you have a lot of sun-exposed windows, the utility savings will be considerable. You can see through the solar sun-protection screens very well. The solar screens for windows provide daytime privacy for the interior of your home. The solar window shade screens will not make the inside of your home dark, you will still get plenty of great filtered light.
