Are insect screens invisible, or are they going to obscure your views of the outside world? It’s a question you might be asking if you’re thinking about buying an insect screen for your home. If you can’t stand flies, pests, and other critters getting into your home in the summer, but find it difficult to enjoy the heat, then insect screens are ideal for you. An insect screen allows you to open your window to ventilate your living space without having to give insects a wide-open door inside.

Some insect screens might not be made bespoke for your space, which means they can affect your view. You could end up purchasing an insect screen for your home that doesn’t retract properly, has mesh that blocks out the light from outside, or doesn’t allow much air into your home. Not only that, some insect screens aren’t very effective, meaning you still end up having to spray your house with strong chemicals that leave that terrible smell lingering. Wouldn’t it be nice if insect screens were invisible instead?

At Appeal Home Shading we decided to make insect screens that are barely noticeable in appearance but clearly excel in performance. We supply a series of window and door insect screens that are unnoticeable when not in use and almost impossible to see even when they are thanks to slimline mesh. You’ll have no need for fly spray, no problem with stifling heat, and no insects getting in the way of you enjoying your home.

How are Appeal Insect Screens Invisible?

No Insects All Year Round

Window Fly Screen

When you invest in our window and door insect screens, they’ll be invisible in several ways. However, the first thing you’ll notice you can’t see are flies, pests and critters. In our insect screens, we use a micro-mesh fabric manufactured from PVC-coated fibreglass. Not only does that make the mesh in our insect screens almost impossible to see from far away, but it also makes it strong and resilient enough to keep insects out.

Once you operate the insect screen, the system perfectly covers the full aperture of your window or door. From there, you’ll be leaving no space for even the smallest little critters to find a way in and play havoc with your home. As a result, you’ll also stop noticing the smell of insect repellent and other harmful chemicals, making your home feel more welcoming and open. Additionally, you’ll be protecting the environment in a small way, creating a greener property.

Discreet Cassette

Insect screens should always be invisible when you use them, but especially when you don’t. Some designs, though, don’t quite retract as you want them to, meaning they block some of the glass in your windows and affect your sightlines. At Appeal, we make sure you see the full picture by ensuring you can’t see our insect screens at all when they’re retracted. Our screens retract into a discreet cassette that blends in seamlessly with your windows when not in use.

Our cassettes fit onto your windows neatly and discreetly, meaning you won’t see them unless you know where to look. Because of this, your windows will look just as they did when the screens are down, helping you let light into your living space. And, when you look into the outside world, you’ll enjoy the same pristine views you’ve always had. At Appeal, we believe you don’t need to sacrifice your views to install insect screens.

ClearVu Mesh

Finally, our insect screens aren’t just invisible when not in use – you’ll barely notice when they’re working either! It’s because our insect screens feature revolutionary ClearVu mesh, a high-quality micro-mesh that doesn’t get in the way of your views. ClearVu mesh is among the slimmest on the market, as it’s made from materials like fibreglass, which are incredibly small. Not only that, the complex design of our meshes means they have gaps small enough to stop any insect intruder from entering your home.

The ClearVu mesh can even reflect natural light with its fibreglass design, meaning it blends in with the world around it. As a result, our insect screens are almost unnoticeable to the human eye, making them the perfect installation for your home. During the summer, you can invite friends and family into your living room or kitchen with complete confidence. Whether you have large windows or even fully glazed doors, our insect screens are made-to-measure to make them invisible in any shape and size.
