Habitat Screens are installed on the outside of windows so that they can block the sun’s heat and glare before it reaches the glass. Unlike interior window treatments that offer only shade and privacy, Habitat Screen products also act as a proactive defense against solar heat gain.

Talius Habitat Screens are made of fabrics engineered specifically for exterior use. Talius has 5 different fabrics to choose from, each with a variety of colour options. Depending on your needs, our fabrics block between 55% and 99% of the sun and provide excellent protection from overheating.

Yes. Habitat Screens are the ideal solution for providing shade, privacy and insect protection for patios, gazebos, and decks.

Talius’ unique edge retention uses a zipper system that keeps the screen in a track and greatly reduces the number of insects entering your home or patio while the screen is down.

When Habitat Screens are in the fully projected (downward) position, the unique edge retention system allows Talius Habitat Screens to withstand winds up to 100 mph, depending on the size and mounting conditions of the Habitat Screen unit. Talius has performed internationally recognized testing in a controlled environment to determine these estimates. In areas susceptible to high wind, Talius strongly recommends the use of a wind sensor to protect the integrity of the Habitat Screen. Performance may vary. Talius does not recommend operating your Habitat Screen in windy conditions. During windy conditions, lowering the Talius Habitat Screens can be difficult due to the resistance and friction created by the wind pushing against the screen fabric. However, the screen can be raised even in windy conditions.
