There are many homeowners who are actively looking for additions to their home that would make it easier for them to enjoy being outside or looking outside their home. During the warmer months of the year, it can get extremely uncomfortable to be outside for more than a few minutes, but luckily, there are structures that can be added to a home to make it much more enjoyable.
The two most popular types of additions for this situation are either a sun room or screened room. Weeki Wachee may have heard of both of these structures before, but not everyone knows the difference.
Because of this, many people are often asking professionals which of the two is better. Many people are under the impression that sun rooms are better than screened rooms, but that may not be the case depending on your desired outcome with one of these structures.
What are the Advantages of a Sun room?
Sun rooms are very different from screened rooms, but that does not necessarily imply that sun rooms are going to be better than screened rooms. Weeki Wachee residents should know that the main difference between a sun room and screened rooms is that a sun room is often attached to the home, and connected to the hvac unit of the home, unlike a screened room.
Sun rooms are completely closed off from the outside elements, such as wind and rain, making it much easier to enjoy for people who don’t want to go outside or are not able to.
Sun rooms are a great way to stay comfortable inside the home, but also have a great view of what is going on outside the home as well. Because of these features, sun rooms are normally more expensive when compared to their screened room counterparts, and may not be in everyone’s budget.
What are the Advantages of a Screened Room?
Screened rooms may not be connected directly to the inside areas of a home in the ways that sun rooms are, but they have their own set of advantages that may appeal to different types of homeowners.
Because a person is more exposed outside when hanging out in screened rooms, Weeki Wachee residents can enjoy the perks of being outside, such as feeling a nice cool breeze, or being able to do outside activities such as grilling.
Many people are under the impression that screened rooms are going to be easy to break or damage, but this is not always true. They may not be as strong as a sun room, but they can hold their own unless under extreme conditions such as hurricane force winds.
