Frequently Asked Questions About Phifer
Which Phifer screen is best for a home with pets?
If you have pets, Phifer PetScreen is the way to go. Made from heavy-duty, vinyl-coated polyester, PetScreen is seven times stronger than regular fiberglass screening and it's designed to resist claws, helping to keep your screens scratch-free even with indoor dogs and outdoor cats.
Will solar screens really help me save on energy bills?
Absolutely yes. Solar screens like Phifer's SunTex line are installed on the outside of your windows, and they block solar heat before it hits your window glass, minimising solar heat gain through windows by up to 90%. This can seriously reduce your cooling costs at your home or commercial building.
What's the difference between BetterVue and UltraVue 2?
BetterVue and UltraVue 2 are both designed to give you a better view than regular mesh screening. BetterVue features upgraded visibility (IVis) and airflow, with decent durability for both home and business applications. UltraVue 2, on the other hand, offers superior visibility (eVis) and is pretty much invisible to the naked eye, giving you the best view possible through your screen but it is a bit more fragile than regular mesh.
Can I use Phifer fabrics on motorized screens?
Yes, several Phifer fabrics get used in motorized screens. The SunTex line, which is the standout performer here, especially the SunTex 80, SunTex 90 & SunTex 95 models, are easily the most popular fabric options for motorized screens by a long shot. These fabrics just don't break down as quickly in the motor tracks, so they're a great choice. Phifer's SunTex range is particularly well suited to this type of application. American Patio Enclosures often fits these fabrics to motorised screens for patios, garages and lanais for both homeowners & business customers.
How do I clean my Phifer screen?
Cleaning your Phifer screen is a doddle. For the vast majority of Insect screening & sun control fabrics, you can just use a mild soap & water mix & gently scrub the screen off with a soft brush or a bit of cloth. Then give it a rinse with the hose & let it air dry. But don't go getting all heavy handed with harsh chemicals or a power washer on your Phifer screen; that can seriously damage the mesh over time.
