The security screens that you have on your home are an investment in your family’s safety, home, and property. Just like your house or your car, your security screens will need a little care and maintenance to ensure they continue to perform at their optimum for years to come. Crimsafe’s range of security screens are incredibly strong, and our Tensile-Tuff® stainless steel mesh is highly corrosion resistant. However, all mesh types can act as a filter that traps salt, moisture and airborne impurities – resulting in marks and stains. No matter the security screens that you have installed on your home, proper care is essential. Here are 5 reasons why you should clean your security screens. 5 reasons to clean your security screens Prolong the life of your security screens Regularly cleaning your security screens will help ensure they remain in their original condition for many years to come. However, over time, your security screens can trap dust, dirt, debris and moisture, which can all cause your security screens to become discoloured, damaged or work less efficiently. To maximise energy efficiency Crimsafe’s Tensile-Tuff® mesh provides energy efficiency for your home. Our screens have been tested to block up to 53% of solar heat gain and up to 62% of UV rays. However, dirt and build-up on the screens can affect the performance of the mesh and make your screen less energy efficient. To maintain optimum airflow There’s nothing like opening your door or windows to let in the fresh air. Our screens are popular for providing excellent airflow into your home without compromising on security. But a build-up of impurities can prevent airflow from entering your house effectively, which is why it’s essential to take the time to remove any build-up that may have accumulated on the mesh. Remove stains or discolouration From time to time, your screens may become stained or discoloured due to the environmental factors around your home – sand, dirt, salt, moisture etc. Cleaning your screens regularly to remove these stains as soon as possible is the best way to prevent your screen from further discolouration or damage. Protect your warranty All Crimsafe security screens come with a 10-year warranty as standard, with the option to extend for additional peace of mind. By regularly maintaining your screens, you will ensure that your warranty remains intact. And finally, if these top 5 aren’t reason enough, here’s just one more. Because first impressions matter – your front door security screen is often the first thing a visitor sees when arriving at your home, and a well-kept, clean screen will ensure a positive first impression. It will also ensure you can see anyone approaching your front door. How do I clean my security screens?
