Other Notes:
- SNAPP® screen is designed to be installed by the average person with common tools (The average DIY'er).
- SNAPP® screen is incredibly easy to repair if your screen material ever develops holes or tears. All you’ll need to do is pull out the SNAPP® screen retainer spline and remove the screen material. Next, install new screen material and new screen retainer spline in the same frame.
- One of the greatest features of SNAPP® screen is that it is specifically designed to be butted together. Opening width or height doesn't matter with respect to stock extrusion size ... just cut the extrusion as needed and butt pieces together. SNAPP® screen is a zero waste product so every inch of product is usable.
- SNAPP® screen was specifically designed to be used with modern and super strong polyester screen materials. SNAPP® screen will accept all standard polyester and fiberglass screening materials, most sunshade materials, thin (.008 or less) PVC plastic or films, and other fabrics. Additionally, while standard .011g (or thinner) aluminum can be installed, it is not at all recommended ... Installation can be extremely difficult even if you are fully skilled in screen installation. Bronze, copper, stainless, etc are all too stiff and should be avoided completely.
PVC vs Aluminum SNAPP® screen - Which is best for my application ?
While extruded aluminum is obviously far superior to extruded PVC, application, location, budget, etc. all play into selecting the best material for your project. Rest assured, no matter which material is chosen, SNAPP® screen will perform exactly as designed.
Standard recommendations:
- If your opening is over 110 SF: Use aluminum SNAPP® screen
- If you reside in a shoreline location: Use PVC SNAPP® screen
- If you reside in an area prone to extreme or extended freezing: Use aluminum SNAPP® screen
- If you have an arch: Use PVC SNAPP® screen for the arch
SNAPP® screen works great and best of all ... it’s a SNAPP® to install.
