Differences between a 3 SEASON ENCLOSED PATIO/LANAI ROOM Versus a 4 SEASON SUNROOM

  • The biggest difference between these two types of Season rooms is the level of usage you will experience.  A 4 Season room can be utilized every day of the year, with climate control heating and cooling.  A 3 Season Room is enjoyed in spring, summer and fall, though some people do choose to install a portable climate control unit and ceiling fans, which can extend your outdoor living season.  

  • Typically, both a 3 Season and a 4 Season room will have large windows on two or three of the walls for the indoor/outdoor living experience, but the difference lies in the glass being used.  Double pane insulated thermal broke glass panes are installed in a 4 Season room to help prevent moisture and condensation.  A 3 Season room typically installs single pane glass windows or EZE-Breeze Windows (an excellent affordable alternative to glass windows).

SOLARIUM

  •  A Solarium is also considered a 4 Season Room and can be used year round.  The big difference is that the walls AND roof are glass, giving you a magnificent view of  the outdoors and a feeling that you are part of nature.    A Solarium is often attached directly to the house, or can be built  freestanding in your location of choice.

  • This room can be used for multiple purposes, such as extra living space or for entertaining, and can include cozy features such as lounging chairs, a sofa, or even a hammock to emulate an outdoor feeling.  Or maybe create a unique and special dining space.   The possibilities are endless!

  • Because of the ample sunshine, some choose to use their Solarium as a greenhouse for growing plants.  Whatever this room is used for, it’s primary goal is to create a space with as much natural light as possible, allowing you to enjoy the outdoors while still being inside.

  • Cost of Solarium Vs. other Sunrooms:  The walls and roof of a Solarium are almost entirely made of glass, which can make them more costly to build than other Sunrooms which have a frame and roof made from traditional building materials.

  • Average Lifespan:  Solariums can last for several decades if you take care of the glass and the structure.

 EZE-Breeze Windows

  • EZE-Breeze windows are an excellent affordable alternative to glass windows.  They’re a bit indoors, a bit outdoors. 
  • Exceptionally strong 10 mil vinyl-glazed sliding panel system which can be customized to fit your space
  • These windows have both vinyl and screen panels, so regardless if it ‘s a beautiful sunny day or a rainy cold day, you have the option for screens to let the breezes blow in, or vinyl to close off your space and keep the weather elements out. 
  • Your choice of having  2-10 vents
  • 4 different vinyl colors available:   (clear, smoke gray, bronze or dark gray).
