With summer fast approaching and the temperatures rising, many people are searching for ways to keep the Arizona sun out of their houses, and the cool temperatures in. Many people are already rushing out to add new sunscreens or replace those old sunscreens. One place they are turning to is B&B Window Cleaning, who is not just cleaning windows these days; they are dressing them up as well.

B&B Window Cleaning first offered Sunscreen sales and repair in 2003 after an overwhelming number of customers made requests for them and many more had either damaged sunscreens or none at all. Many of their customers did not know where to turn to for help with getting new screens. “We really saw a need out there, for both educating customers on their options, and also to help them with getting the right screens for their house.

“We would be at customers’ houses cleaning their windows and as soon as we were finished, blinds would be drawn and shutters closed in order to keep the sun out.”

Roberto recalls, “It didn’t make sense to have these nice clean windows and then to close them up and block out the view.”

Surprised at the number of customers that this was affecting, Brandy adds, “So many of our customers have these wonderful large picture windows with great views outside that they don’t even get to enjoy.”

While one solution that many people take is to have their windows tinted, B&B Window Cleaning says that only remedies the glare, while only blocking out some of the heat.

“If you put your hand up against a tinted window you will be amazed at how hot the glass will get,” Brandy says. “This is heat that has already penetrated into your house.”

She adds, “Sun screens block out the heat from the outside, before it gets into your house. It amazes me how many people don’t have sunscreens especially in Arizona. Our summer sun can be so damaging.”

Not only does the direct sun heat up your house costing you more on your energy bill, but also it ruins your furniture, damages your curtains and fades your rugs and carpet!

According to B&B Window Cleaning, the result is that many people miss out on the beautiful Arizona view because they do not want to open their window coverings in the summer, just to avoid the additional heat and direct sun.

According to a California statewide energy efficiency marketing and outreach campaign called, Flex Your Power, sunscreens can save you 5 percent off your monthly energy bill. In addition, APS says that screens will block about 70 percent of the solar heat gain from ever entering your home.

Many people put off adding sun screens to their homes thinking that they are too expensive, but B&B Window Cleaning believes that the price will surprise you.

“They are actually much less expensive than tinting windows,” says Roberto and adds that the real benefit is the savings on your power bill over time.

Sunscreens are not the only items that B&B Window Cleaning offers their customers. They also sell replacement screen doors and bug screens.

“Often the screen doors that originally came with a house are not very well made.”

According to Roberto, the plastic wheels wear down and often break over time, making it difficult to open and close the screen doors. That is why all of the screen doors that B&B sells come with metal wheels that will not break and wear down quickly like the plastic wheels. And for you dog lovers, B&B Window Cleaning also offers a heavy duty frame to keep your pets from bending and damaging your screen doors.

B&B Window Cleaning is excited to be able to offer their customers this great new product but want their customers to remember that they are still out there doing what they have become known for, clean windows.

“Window cleaning is still the number one focus for our business,” says Brandy. “We enjoy seeing our old customers year after year, and getting to know new ones.”

So, when it is time to get those windows cleaned again, B&B Window Cleaning is just a phone call away, and you will not have to close out the view when the work is finished.
