Jacksonville Screen Room Wall Options
Jacksonville patio rooms and carports have no screen, are wide open and use aluminum posts to support
the roof. With additional framing we can install screen to protect you from the bugs
and the weather. The most basic screen room would have screen to the floor or we can add
a kickplate to keep rain
from splashing in. 18/14
screen is most common
size screen we use, it lets
in air, but keeps the flies
and mosquitoes out. If the
pesky gnats are a problem
we can install a 20/20
screen with tighter mesh.
This "gnat" screen will
keep most bugs out, but
also restrict some of the
air flow.
Vinyl Windows
If your desire is to keep the dust and wind out of the room,
vinyl windows may fit your needs. Similar to a very heavy
duty siran wrap, vinyl windows have been used for years
as a lost cost covering, they are far less expensive than
glass but are not designed to be energy efficiant and need
to be cleaned with a preserver to keep from fogging.
You can convert your screen room to a three season room by adding Glass windows. Combining these Energy efficiant insulated glass windows with an airconditioner can further extend the use of your room. We are currently running a special on Sunrooms! Save now!
Wall Options
KickPlate
A kickplate is the lower portion of the wall. Its
purpose is to keep rain from splashing in, it also
helps to prevent damage from pets and helps to
define the room.
The majority of screen rooms have either screen
top to bottom or a 16" aluminum Kickplate.
We can match your existing siding with
HardiePlank, Panel, Vinyl siding even
Stucco or Brick if desired.
If you will be installing windows and conditioning your room expect to insulate your kickplate.
We can use a tempered insulated glass window, insulate with traditional insulation or
use an insulated panel like we use on the roof. These thicker kickplates allow us to install
and conceal electrical and cable wiring.
