Unlike what people pictured in their mind, the fiberglass screen is not actually the “invisible window screen”. The invisible screen means that the meshes can be rolled up to the box, the frame is closely attached to the window frame just like a normal window screen. the meshes will return to the mesh box when unused. It is space-saving and does not affect the looking of the window, that’s why it is referred to as “invisible”. But the meshes are visible when you open up the screen. A window screen is mainly used to shield off mosquitoes and prevents dust from coming in, so sometimes some sellers call it “anti-mosquito fiberglass screen” or “dustproof invisible screen”, which are all the same thing.
Some window screens claim to be of strong “dustproof” feature, so how do we see the “dustproofing” of window screens? Experts said that the so-called “dustproofing” or “auto-cleaning” features actually mean that their invisible screens do not attract dust with a couple of crude strips being placed in the box, so that the meshes will be wiped when they are rolled up to it, which is different from the concepts of “preventing dust from coming in” and “dustproofing” that we think, so everyone should be careful on this.
Fiberglass screens are divided into upward/downward rolling type, left/right sliding type and folded type in the market. Normal window screens are usually of the sliding type, which is normally priced based on the height (which is relatively more expensive and fragile), while the rolling type is priced at the area.
