Screened Sunrooms

If you want the added benefit of a sunroom, but not the expense of installing a room of glass, consider the possibility of screened sunrooms. You don't have to bother with the details of installing a ventilation system or buying shades for the windows. You simply want a place where you can enjoy the summer sun and remain free from pesky mosquitoes.

Even with a screened in sunroom, you do have to consider the location where you want to place it. If you have a porch that you use frequently to enjoy the sun, then you can simply install a screen and call it your sunroom. The location is important because you want the sunroom in a place where you get the most sun during the day as well as the breezes you need to keep it from getting too hot. Adding this room will also darken the room onto which you make the addition, so this is something that you have to take into consideration.

When you add a sunroom with a screen, you can also extend your garden into your home. Place your patio furniture around the room and have pots of flowers on tables. This is also the prefect place to start new seedlings and let them grow before you transplant them to the garden itself. It is also a great place for children to play without getting dirty and you won't have to worry about the bugs.

The screen around the sunroom lets you bring your indoor living space outdoors. On warm summer evenings, you will likely take your meal outdoors and it is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee as you read the newspaper. The removable screens allow you to put them up and take them down with ease, so you won't have them blocked with ice and snow in the winter.
