Little-known Information About Sunroom Windows

By Kevin Russell


Most homeowners are increasingly embracing the art of installing large casements on the property to allow natural light into the room. The property owners have gone further to embrace the concept sunrooms to ensure that they allow maximum light into the patio rooms. However, the task of finding the right window for the sun lounge can be daunting. The performance of sunroom windows varies considerably from one to the other. The property owners can make use of the following tips in trying to find the right window for the sunspace.

The owner can apply a special tinted film on the casements of the sun lounge that blocks heat during summertime while allowing light to be transmitted into the porch. In some cases, it can be supported with a screen that unfastens to allow ventilation into the room while at the same time protecting the occupants of the solarium from insects.

Shades can also be used in the place of tints thereby allowing the owner of the property to beautify to the sun parlor. Shades allow the homeowner to determine the level of brightness that should be allowed to penetrate into the parlor. During the winter season, the casements of the lounge can be raised high enough to allow maximum light.

If the homeowner desires to have a four-season sunspace that remains comfortable even during the coldest winter, it is recommended that they go for the high-performance casements. This is one of the most energy efficient options available to the property owner. The draft proof seals and double panes combine to provide extra insulation to the high-performance window thereby minimizing heat loss and heat gain. This ensures that the energy bills remain lower irrespective of the season.

In the case where the property owner does not wish to add high-performance casements to the lounge, they can go for those designs that are conservative. If you choose this design, you need to be willing to put up a sunroom that is only made up of glass. Only those property owners who want to have more sunlight in their lounges each day should settle for the conservatory designs.

Glass can also be fitted on the casements of the sun parlor to block the UV light from getting into the lounge. If UV light is allowed to get into the lounge, there are high chances that it will damage the floor and furniture. To prevent such destruction, it is advisable that you go for those casements that have a high R-value that allows only a certain amount of light to get into the room while blocking the destructive ultraviolet light.

There are other options that property owners can consider when finding the right window for their solarium. Fixed casements are more likely to cost less in comparison to those that open. One can reduce the cost of constructing the solarium by combining both types of casements. The homeowner should also consider getting the window that has tempered glass that has been heat treated. If such a window breaks, it crumbles into small pieces with blunt edges as opposed to sharp shards.

With such powerful tips on how to find the best casements for your sunroom, I believe that you should successfully install the perfect casements in your sun parlor.
