Understanding Turf Melt

Turf melt is characterized by unsightly streaks running through your otherwise pristine lawn. Contrary to popular belief, these streaks are not normal. Streaks in your artificial turf are indicative of turf melt, a phenomenon typically caused by sunlight reflecting off low-e windows. This reflection acts like a magnifying glass, focusing the sun’s rays on your turf and causing it to burn.

The Real Culprit

The problem isn’t with the turf itself, but with the windows. Low-e windows are designed to reflect heat, which is beneficial for keeping your home cool but can be detrimental to your artificial turf. Until these problematic windows are covered, the turf will continue to be burned, resulting in a recurring problem.
