Do you want your sunroom to look as good as the beautiful scenery that surrounds it? If so, you should consider a vaulted ceiling. If you are a light lover, this type of ceiling is a great option for you. When you have vaulted ceilings, you can add even more windows, which allow for a better view and let in even more glorious sunlight. Because we custom design all of our sunrooms, we can create windows to fit just about any space, which means that we can take advantage of the extra room that your vaulted ceiling has to offer.

Do you simply love being outdoors? Being surrounded by nature’s beauty is peaceful and relaxing…that is until you get bitten by a mosquito or stung by a bee. What if there was a way to get the best of both worlds—relaxing scenery and protection from the elements? Well, there is! All you have to do is build a sunroom, and it is easier than you think when you consider the variety of sunrooms that can be built under existing roofs.

Adding a sunroom to your home can give you a great view of the outdoors while allowing you to stay comfortable. All that glass can make heating and cooling tricky though, which is why ventilation is an important aspect to consider. At Patio Enclosures we offer a number of ventilation options for three season rooms, all season rooms, screened in porches, and solariums. You can use one or more of the following options to ensure that your room is a comfortable place to relax and enjoy.

If you’re a yoga buff, you might want to consider creating a yoga sunroom. The ambiance a sunroom is able to provide can make your yoga routine even more enjoyable. If you already have a sunroom, it does not take much to convert it into a great place for yoga. If you are considering purchasing a sunroom, there are a couple of things that you’ll need to consider if you would like to use the room primarily for yoga.

Screened porches have a long list of benefits for your home. They generally increase the value and allow you and your guests to enjoy the outdoors bug-free. They are, however, not without their limitations. For example, since screened porches are vulnerable to the elements, you may only get to enjoy yours between late spring and early fall.

Most sunroom lovers have sunrooms because they adore light and nature. Personally, I can’t seem to ever get enough of either one. I spend most of my time in our sunroom, which is appropriately surrounded with glass walls to let it all in, while I loll around in its splendor. When we installed our bio-ethanol floating fireplace, winter became my favorite season.

Now that it’s summertime and the living is easy, not to mention hot, it would be a great time to look at some gorgeous screened-in porches for design inspiration. But if you have no idea how to decorate it, read through for some fantastic screened in porch ideas.  

Solariums, or glass enclosures, are an unique way to add additional living space to your home. Made of energy efficient 1" thick double pane insulated glass, a custom solariumm provides a ceiling to floor view of your outdoor surroundings. Solariums give you the most views than any other sunroom thanks to its glass roof. 

Sunrooms can be comprised of anywhere from 75-90% framed glass. Learn what to consider before choosing your sunroom window glass and how good quality window glass can increase your home's value.
