First let me say, Bryan and Defender Solar Screens are great to work with.
Great communication, Timely Quote and install with Easy billing, Product not so much. It looks good from outside and dressed up our house nicely from the outside. But that's not actually the purpose of sun screens.
The negative is more on the product.
These were replacement screens from when we purchased house in 2004.
I had previously put on Screens before we even moved in and they were a great move, Sun screens look good, and best of all. Kept the interior of house cool and shady, We could have blinds open full AZ sun and inside would be blocked from sun and still in shade. Had them cleaned a few times oven the years and it was more discoloration and age that we decided to replace.
These were to be same protection and shading level with recommendation that frames also be included. No issue with that.
They look fantastic from the outside. Protection of inside much lower than previous and actually really disappointed these were supposed to be 90%. Quote advised that was was currently installed.
I don't know if products have change, but certainly not for the better.
Blinds will always be closed and that is huge disappointment.
Workmanship good, But sorry I did it.
