The resale we purchased had thin plexiglass on the bottom of the screen to the chair rail. It’s about 14”.
Had clips to remove to clean screens. Kept the rain splashing on the rock bed into the lanai. Don’t know how long it was there when we bought the house in “2014” but it’s still there today, can’t see it from the back, still very clear with few scratches, with no yellowing, lanai faces south.
So have first hand experience, I am guessing you personally tried plexiglass and yours yellowed? How long did it take to yellow?
Up north our pool “fence” was thick plexiglass, so had a great view all around the deck. Through spring, summer, fall, and yes winter, it still looked great when we sold.
