I have a customer who presently has bright aluminum screens on her residence. She wants to replace them because the aluminum screen material is oxidizing and becoming unsightly.
She was told by a window washer recently that aluminum screens deposit a film or sheen on the glazing of the window when rain water passes through them and dries on the glazing. Is this true? Can rain or lawn watering sprayed on an aluminum screen desolve any of the mineral content of the screen and deposit or etch the glazing of the window?
If so, which screen material does not do this?
This customer also wants to replace the screens with a material which allows the maximum amount of sunlight into the living space. Which screen material allows the most light indoors?
And which material accomplishes both the issues described above?
