Bug Screen or Patio Shade?
It’s both! Oasis 2900 and 2950 are hard-working dual-duty outdoor roller shade made with a choice of exterior-rated solar screen, insect screen, or privacy fabric. Also known as a zipper shade or retractable enclosure screen, the Oasis 2900 and 2950 elevate your outdoor living space and is manufactured by roller shade specialist Insolroll in Louisville, Colorado.
A retractable motorized mosquito screen for your patio.
Don’t let bugs ruin your patio time! This roll up mosquito screen is sealed at the edges, top, and bottom to keep insects out and create an enclosed space when the shade is down. When the shade is retracted it leaves an open-air barrier-free space.
It’s a patio sun shade that blocks glare, heat, UV, and golf balls.
With solar screen mesh fabric, both models not only keeps bugs out of your patio, they controls the sun to make your patio more comfortable. Stay cooler, enjoy a better view through the screen without glare, and protect your patio furniture from UV damage and fading. Both models also stop flying golf balls for residences near golf courses.

Built-in Oasis 2900 Motorized Mosquito Screens
Building a new patio structure? Insolroll has built-in options for your patio bug screen shades.
Built-in outdoor patio shades have the cleanest, most minimal appearance available, and disappear into a pocket cavity or extruded aluminum pocket above the ceiling when retracted. No head box is required, and the patio bug screens are almost invisible, preserving all of the available opening for open viewing.
When a patio space is being built, a cavity known as a pocket can be built into the ceiling above a patio opening. This pocket houses the roller and shade fabric, with wiring hidden above. When the motorized Oasis 2900 bug screen retracts, it neatly rolls up into the pocket and out of sight.
Recessed side tracks
For an even more refined built-in look, recessed side tracks allow Oasis 2900’s zipper tracks to be flush with the columns of your patio. Wood, brick, masonry, and stucco columns can be beautifully detailed for the cleanest possible appearance.
Features That Keep Bugs OUT
Oasis 2900 and 2950 are designed to keep insects out of your patio space with seals on all 4 sides.
