Tips for Creating the Perfect Sunroom

What are some ways to plan a sunroom addition to your house?

Choose a location
Define the purpose of the sunroom
Choose window types and placement
Decide if it will be climate controlled

A sunroom is a perfect place to enjoy the view of the outdoors during any season. A sunroom is not only a great space for a homeowner but also will add value to your home. Follow these four tips when planning the perfect sunroom addition.

1. Location

The first step is to determine where you want to add your sunroom. If you love sunlight and want to have the most sunlight in your sunroom, then it should be built along a south-facing wall. If you are a morning person and love to watch the sunrise, then place it along an east-facing wall.

2. Purpose

Next, you will want to define the purpose of your sunroom. A sunroom functions as many different rooms, it is all up to the homeowner. Many popular choices are a family room, a home office, or an entertaining guest space.

3. Window Size & Placement

You will want to now decide on windows and their placement. If you want to create a screened porch look you will need to use floor-to-ceiling windows. Other good options for a sunroom are awning windows or sliding windows. These allow fresh air into a home’s sunroom.

4. Climate Control

The last thing to consider is whether the sunroom should be climate controlled. A four-season sunroom is climate controlled and can be both heated and cooled. This can range from a ceiling fan to extending the HVAC system in the sunroom. Other options can also include insulated glass and windows that can open.
