How to Reduce the Heat In Your Home with Screens
Since your home is such a big investment, you want to do everything possible to protect it as well as the belongings you have in room after room. While it’s always great to have a sunny day outside, those rays of sunshine beaming through your home’s windows may actually be doing more harm than good. Along with potentially fading the finish off your floor and furniture, they are also making your home excessively warm. By choosing to install Rollac heat reducing screens, the question of whether screens reduce heat will quickly get answered by you and your family.
Do Screens Really Help Reduce Heat?

In fact, once you’ve got our ZipShades installed on your home’s windows, they will be able to lower the temperature inside your home’s rooms, which will allow you to turn off the A/C and enjoy your home’s interior much more than in years past.
How Do Rollac Solar Shades Reduce Heat?
Using our state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and technology, Rollac solar shades for windows help to reduce the heat in your home in a variety of ways.
Solar Protection
First, the specialized screening used on our solar shades provides your home’s interior with maximum solar protection on the hottest of days. Once they are installed on the exterior of your home, you’ll be astonished to discover that our solar shades will be able to block out as much as 90 percent of the sun’s heat before it ever reaches your windows. Needless to say, this will keep your home much cooler.
Light Control
Next, our retractable screens also let you have the luxury of adjusting the amount of light that enters various rooms inside your home. Whether you are someone who works the overnight shift and doesn’t want sunlight interfering with your daytime sleep or perhaps you want to make sure sunlight does not damage your electronics or antiques, you can raise or lower the screens to get as much light control as is needed for any part of your home.
Other Benefits of Solar Shades
Now that you know about some of the major reasons why you should install Rollac exterior solar shades at your home’s windows, here are some other benefits you’ll reap as well.
Keeping the Bugs Away
On a beautiful sunny day, flies and other bugs love to gather at windows and try to enter your home. Once you’ve got our solar shades for windows on your home’s exterior, bugs will be kept out for good.
Reducing Your Energy Bill
Since everything costs so much today, reducing your energy bill is always a top priority. Depending on the temperature you prefer to have inside your home and how much you choose to use your Rollac solar shades, you may see energy savings of as much as 30 percent by reducing the amount of sunlight that enters your home.
Give Your Air Conditioner a Break
If you run your air conditioner practically nonstop during the summer months, it not only increases your energy bill, but also guarantees your A/C unit will have a much shorter lifespan, meaning you’ll be spending hundreds of dollars on a new air conditioner before you know it. Instead of buying a new air conditioner every few years, invest in our Rollac solar shades and reduce the heat in your home. Over time, you’ll save more money than you ever imagined.
Prolong the Life of Your Furniture and Electronics
Over time, prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays from the sun will damage your home’s furniture and electronics. If electronics become overheated, vital parts can be damaged. As for your furniture, the sun’s rays will fade colors and finishes, ruining what were once beautiful pieces of furniture. By being able to control the sunlight that enters various rooms, your electronics and furniture can be saved.
More Privacy
Instead of always wondering if nosy neighbors are viewing what’s going on inside the privacy of your home, install our retractable screens and ensure you and your family have all the privacy you want and need.
Affordable
Finally, our Rollac heat reducing screens are comparably priced and very affordable for practically any budget. Whether you want motorized screens or ones operated manually, we can work with you and your budget to get screens you’ll love.
