Q: Can PR-AHT security shutters be used daily? A: Newer Hurricane Screens are available with UV protection, although it is not recommended to leave them up all year as it may shorten the screen’s life.

Screens should be cleaned and dried before taken down for storage. Please read the Product Info page about Hurricane Screens.
