4-Season VS 3-Season Sunroom

A sunroom addition can be a great way to add more space to your home for your family, pets, and friends, all while enjoying nature's views. If you're thinking about adding a sunroom addition to your home, it's vital first to understand the difference between 4-season and 3-season rooms. And yes, there are more differences than what season they can be used in. This blog will cover the characteristics that differentiate each sunroom and why a 4-season LivingSpace sunroom is ultimately the superior choice. 3-Season Sunrooms At first glance, you may not realize the difference between a 3-season and 4-season sunroom due to their similar appearance. Let’s look at how you can tell the difference between both types. Season use: These sunrooms may only be used in the warmer months, excluding winter. This is because the framing is not thermally engineered to heat or cool the room properly. However, if you reside in a warmer climate, a 3-season sunroom could be an option for homeowners. Engineering: Most 3-season and even 4-season sunrooms on the market are made with an aluminum frame. This type of framing isn’t ideal for heat transfer, maintenance, and sustainability. Price: 3-Season sunrooms will noticeably cost less than a 4-season. However, when it comes to the market, you get what you pay for. A sunroom can be and should be an investment in your home. If a sunroom is too cheap, that is a red flag, and it’s better if you steer clear. Quality is essential. 4-Season Sunrooms Seasons of use: These sunrooms can be used year-round. It’s an excellent option for those that live in a colder climate. Imagine spending winter basically outside thanks to the views a 4-season room can give. Engineering: With all 4-season sunrooms, you'll find only one option available, aluminum. But not…

Enjoy Summer Without Bugs and Heat: In A LivingSpace Sunroom

In some states, people wait all year for the warmer months to begin again. You get to enjoy nature and its views without being freezing or trekking through the snow. However, summer isn't all it's cracked up to be either. You unfortunately still have to deal with things like mosquitoes and other pests, along with the hot and humid air. But, what if we told you about a way you can still enjoy those beautiful outdoor views without gross insects and humid weather? Well, it's called a LivingSpace 4-season sunroom. Nature's Challenges The outside can bring on many challenges, regardless of the season. But for this article's sake, let's focus on Summer. In some states, summer weather can bring temps as high as 115 degrees Fahrenheit! That's way too hot to be enjoyable. Now, for the gross part, bugs! Unfortunately, they are here to stay. But, that doesn't mean they have to be your problem! There are many different insects and creatures that live in the great outdoors all across the country—some dangerous, deadly, or even poisonous. However, nature's challenges can easily be avoided! But not with just any 4-season sunroom. Higher Standards With LivingSpace The majority of sunrooms are built from aluminum. Aluminum isn't a great building material because of its poor thermal insulation. Just think, if it were a good building material, how come it's not used anywhere else in your home? Poor thermal insulation means heat and cold will quickly transfer inside, making it freezing in the winter and a sauna in the summer. It also won't stand up well against any harsh weather, like thunderstorms and hail, which are very common in the summertime. LivingSpace sets a higher standard, and we don't use any aluminum. We have our own patented PulTrex framing system that uses composite…

Benefits of a Vinyl Sunroom

LivingSpace offers only the best of the best when it comes to sunroom additions on your home. All of our sunrooms are made with a vinyl material instead of aluminum. Aluminum is the most common building material for sunrooms. However, it’s not ideal when it comes to maintenance, heat transfer, and sustainability. It’s why we have always made LivingSpace Sunrooms with vinyl, now let us explain why it's the better choice. Maintenance Aluminum is usually the most common material of sunrooms to be made from. At first it was the battle between wood and aluminum; which was better? But, now Vinyl is giving both a run for their money. One of the biggest reasons Vinyl is much more superior than aluminum is how little maintenance it needs. A sunroom is already a major investment, so why purchase something that constantly needs maintenance, upgrades, or tedious cleaning. Here’s what aluminums sunrooms do that vinyl does not: Color fading over time-Anodized aluminum extrusions can fade and oxidize, if your sunroom is near an ocean ugly pits can appear from salt corrosion. Powder-coated or painted aluminum window frames fade and chalk up also. Dents- Aluminum can lack shape memory, meaning after damage it’s hard for it to return to its original shape Touch ups needed- The process of touching up aluminum can be tedious and time-consuming, following precise steps that can also be expensive. Cleaning is a big hassle in life, you always have to do it, it takes up time and energy. But, what if we told you adding on a LivingSpace sunroom adds extra square footage onto your house, but without all that extra cleaning! It’s super easy, here’s how you do it. Frame and Door- use a soft cloth or brush with a mild detergent or warm water. No need…

Spring is the Perfect Time to Add a Sunroom Addition

After a long and cold winter getting outside and enjoying the beauty and warmth of spring is the perfect way to spend the day! Unfortunately, spring also means a lot of rainy days, unpredictable cold spells, and the return of outdoor insects. That's why adding a sunroom is the perfect solution to soak up the springtime sun and still be protected from the many elements of Mother Nature! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lP4qLAln9A4 Although our sunrooms can be enjoyed during all four seasons, many people find that they get the most use out of them in the spring and summer months. When the snow starts to melt and the days are getting longer, it is the perfect time to think about adding your new sunroom addition. Plus, there are several benefits to adding a sunroom in the spring. Perfect temperature for construction More daylight, allowing builders to maximize their time during construction. Temperatures are more ideal for builders to work in, not too hot and not too cold. Safely enjoying the return of the sun Vitamin D from the sun helps you stay healthy and even happy, but the sun can also be dangerous. Using a sunroom in the warmer months helps you stay protected while still getting to enjoy the sun's rays. Avoiding pesky bugs and mosquitos Spring brings a lot of benefits, but it is also the time of year that flies and mosquitos return with a vengeance. Get the best of both worlds by utilizing your new sunroom addition to enjoy the beauty of nature without needing to dig out that bottle of bug spray.
