This week I'm having a screened porch built. The builder is offering an upgraded Phifer brand 20/20 screen mesh, as opposed to the regular Phifer 4/18 mesh at no extra cost.
For more information, please visit 20x20 screen.
Now prior to choosing this builder, I was told by a couple other porch/sales reps that they only recommended the 14/18 screen mesh size, because you could feel the breeze better... and 20/20 mesh would make the air feel stagnant. My builder says they were probably just telling me that because they didn't offer the 20/20 as a standard mesh.
Has anyone tried both, or tried one and wished they'd chosen the other? If the 20/20 does cut down the breeze some, is it that much to make a difference? In any case, I've gotten conflicting opinions on the subject and I'm not sure what to do. I should mention that I live in central florida where there is no problem with no-see-ums. Would there be any other advantages of going with the 20/20... other than to keep out the no-see-um?
Thanks in advance for any feedback on the subject.

Do you have window screens that insects are able to penetrate? If you're dealing with small no-see-ums and other tiny insects, it's time to choose screen wire that effectively keeps them out.
