Full glass sunrooms: Let the sunshine in

Full glass sunrooms are the best way to bring the outside indoors. Sunrooms can provide a space with natural light for an indoor swimming pool, a spot to nurture a garden or a sanctuary to nurture yourself. If a sunroom might be in your future, the following two questions can help you decide which kind of sunroom meets your requirements and your budget:

1. Do you plan to use your sunroom year-round? In some areas of the country, you can easily use your sunroom 365 days a year, while others with four distinct seasons can require fully insulated windows, roofs and walls to combat broiling summer days or freezing winter nights. You may also have to install additional heating and cooling systems.
2. Do you want to remodel an existing room or create a new space? If there's already an existing structure such as a patio or deck, it may be easier and less expensive to install a new sunroom there.

The answers to these questions can steer you toward the best sunroom choice for your home.
