Congratulations! You have finally got window sunscreens installed in your house to beat the Arizona heat. Window sunscreens is not something that you can get replaced every other month, but they can lose their efficiency and get damaged if not taken proper care of.
Here are some simple care and maintenance tips to help you extend the life of your solar screens so they can continue to block out heat for years:

· Handle Them with Care​
Window sunscreens are delicate and can easily get damaged. So, whenever you take them off, let’s say for cleaning, make sure to be very careful while handling them.
The most important thing while handling solar screens is to ensure that the aluminum frame does not get bent. For that, make sure to hold the screens from the top only – never hold them from the bottom or the support bar in the center because this can cause their aluminum frame to bend. Experts recommend being extra careful with the bigger screens.
Also, it is advised to avoid taking off the screens on a windy day because the wind can damage them.

· Make Sure the Clips Are Intact
We all know that changes in temperature can cause the windows to expand and contract. When this happens regularly, it can loosen up the screws and clips that hold the window screens. Therefore, make sure to tighten them, at least once a year, otherwise the screens will fall off or get damaged due to winds and storms. This seemingly insignificant task can save you big bucks.

· Store Them Properly
If you take off the solar screens during winters, make sure to store them at a place that’s out of the way to avoid any accidental damage. They can either be stored vertically, next to each other, or stacked horizontally.

· Cleaning and Reinstalling
Before you take off the solar screen from your house windows, make sure you know the right ways to clean and reinstall them.
As mentioned earlier, window screens are very delicate and can easily get damaged. So, do not take the risk if you are an expert of the craft and call a professional of window sunscreens in Gilbert, AZ.
The best way to clean window screens is with soap water and a soft bristle brush. While many people also use pressure washers for this, you have to be very careful with it. Even a small mistake, like the wrong position of the screen, using pressure or washing from too close can damage the screen fabric.
