Screened gazebos are a great way to have the best of both worlds – you can be outdoors without being bothered by pests or mildly inclement weather. If you have a screened gazebo in your back yard, you no longer have to worry about gnats, mosquitoes, flies, bees, or any other flying insect.
In addition, screened gazebos offer protection from debris that blow in the wind, such as falling leaves or cut grass. For this reason, screened gazebos are great for windy but otherwise pleasant day and nights.
Screened gazebos also have more privacy than the non-screened version. The screens allow you to look out into your yard without being completely exposed to the prying eyes of neighbors or the street.
Screened gazebos can have many forms, and the screens themselves can either be stationary, or they can be designed to swing or slide open when you want greater contact with the outdoors. This gives the greatest flexibility to a gazebo owner, as you can choose when to have a screened gazebo and when to have a traditional gazebo. Traditional gazebos can also be converted, with screening kits that you can install. Some kits are permanent, while others allow you to uninstall the screens.
Another benefit of a screened gazebo is that certain screens are designed to block ultraviolet radiation. This is great for someone who wants to enjoy the outdoors but doesn’t want to be exposed to dangerous sun, or for a person who has adverse reactions to too much sun exposure or burns easily.
Screened gazebos do cost more than those without screens, but it is well worth the extra money to allow you to get more use out of your gazebo. You no longer have to use citronella candles or other bug deterrents to keep bugs away from your outdoor fun.
