Why Do You Need Screened Porches in Baton Rouge?

Enjoying quality time alone or entertaining family and friends is the best part of having an outdoor space. When you live in Baton Rouge, this means dealing with the heat, humidity, and insects that come swarming during the hot months. And in Baton Rouge, the hot months last for most of the year.

Installing a retractable porch screen allows you to actually enjoy the outdoor spaces on your property without constantly thinking about how uncomfortable the weather is making you feel.

Protection From the Sun With Retractable Screens

If you’re from Baton Rouge, you know how brutally hot the sun there can be. Baton Rouge residents will brave the heat to cheer on the tigers, but they’ll risk sun exposure during the game. But when you’re back at home, there’s no need to expose yourself to sun damage and heat. With a retractable porch screen from Acadian Windows, you can actually enjoy the outdoor weather without feeling the worst effects of UV exposure or the heat.

Getting a retractable porch screen also means that you can enjoy the outdoors during times you otherwise would have been stuck inside. Everyone loves a little bit of AC, but it drives your energy bill through the roof during the summer, and it means you have to stay indoors. With a retractable screen porch from Acadian Windows, your outdoor space will transform into an area you can enjoy and escape some of the heat. Screens also provide shade that protects your skin and helps prevent sun damage to your outdoor belongings.

Patio screens of any kind are incredibly beneficial for blocking out the sun’s harmful UV rays. Being under a roof does not necessarily mean your skin is safe from sun damage, after all. Patio screens can block out up to 80% of UV rays depending on the type and materials, so not only can your investment help protect your home but your body as well. Enjoy summers to the fullest extent and spend time with your family and friends without the risk of overexposure to sun rays. 

When you have Acadian Windows sun screens installed outside, they also improve the climate inside your home. The climate improvement occurs because the screen filters some of the sun’s heat energy before entering your home. When the internal temperature of your house is lower, your AC system doesn’t need to work as hard, and it makes your home more energy-efficient. It also reduces your energy bill.

Because our screens are so useful, we made sure they’re super versatile too. Acadian Windows’s retractable screens can be installed on your front and back porch, patio, garage, or anywhere else you may need it. Some customers use our white mesh screens as projection screens for some outdoor entertainment!

If you don’t have room in the budget to create a custom theatre room in your home, a white retractable porch screen will have a similar effect at a fraction of the price. Pull down your screen anytime your family wants a fun, new watching experience, and use a projector to watch your favorite films under the stars. Simply roll it up once the popcorn is finished and enjoy your porch as usual! Retractable screens are also perfect for parties, where your children and their friends can battle it out with video games on the biggest screen they’ve ever had.

Protection from Insects with Retractable Screens

As you already know, insects in Baton Rouge are a constant issue. From lovebugs and buck moth caterpillars in the spring to termites and mosquitoes in the summer and fall, Baton Rouge residents have plenty of reasons to want to keep insects from coming into their porches and homes.

Summer in Baton Rouge means pests and bugs. Many southerners resort to citronella candles and bug repellents, but they have a foul odor and can make your skin sticky. But worst of all: they don’t always work. And as cases of West Nile virus have started to come to Louisiana, the importance of protecting yourself and your family against mosquitoes and other bugs has never been greater.

A quick and affordable way to permanently solve a mosquito problem is installing a retractable screen porch with a tight weave. Acadian Windows’s high thread count options help keep even the smallest critters, like gnats, out of your relaxation space. No more lemon and clove mosquito bowls!

Additionally, a high thread count retractable porch screen from Acadian Windows helps keep airborne particulates at bay. Allergens like pollen, dust, and mold reduce when you have a screen, and it also protects you from pestering insects.

Motorized Patio Screens Baton Rouge Families Love

The cherry on top is that we offer motorized options for each one of our retractable porch screens. The motorization makes putting your screen away when it’s overcast outside much more manageable.

Acadian Windows’s motorized screen porches are operated with a controller, meaning you can raise and lower your screen from your seat’s comfort. Ease of use, reliability, and functionality means you get a retractable porch screen for Baton Rouge residents to find serious value.

Take control of the privacy of your home! Keep your screen up to enjoy the views during the day, and lower it to make your guests comfortable at your patio dinner party. Screens are also a great way to give your pet some fresh air even when it’s raining or snowing, protecting them from the elements while you remain in the comfort of your home. 

The best part is that you don’t need to worry about wear and tear when operating your motorized porch screen. Acadian Windows’s products are made with exceptionally high-quality materials, meaning you can raise and lower your screen as many times as you wish without worry.

And if you ever decide to sell, motorized retractable porch screens increase the utility and functionality of your outdoor spaces, which can greatly appeal to prospective homebuyers. Investing in retractable porch screens is an investment for your enjoyment of your home, but it may also have financial benefits for you in the long run.

Stretching Out Baton Rouge’s Outdoor Living Season

Like the rest of Louisiana and the Gulf Coast, Baton Rouge has a relatively narrow band of time where it’s genuinely comfortable to be outside. May through September are brutally hot, and most residents avoid being outdoors entirely if they can help it. But even in the spring and fall months, temperatures can still be uncomfortably hot, and heavy rains are common. 

Retractable porch screens provide Baton Rouge residents with the weather protection they need to enjoy pleasant temperatures throughout the spring and fall, and even into the summer. With porch screens from Acadian Windows, you can spend time listening to the birds and appreciating the natural beauty around your home all May and June, without feeling the discomfort of an oppressive sun or mosquitoes biting up your skin.
