Your enjoyment of your sunroom will depend in large part on the quality of the windows. Each window should be selected carefully based on the structure and size of your home, along with the demands of your local climate.
In this post, your local window replacement contractor, Renewal by Andersen® of Central Pennsylvania, discusses things you should consider when choosing sunroom windows.
1. Window Wall
Creating a sunroom window wall creates a smooth transition between your indoor and outdoor spaces. Full-length window panels give you a wide, unobstructed view of your yard. You can customize the color of the exterior frame to match the look of your home.
2. Energy Efficiency
Look for windows with an ENERGY STAR® label. Energy-efficient windows can help you maintain a comfortable indoor temperature while reducing cooling and heating costs. Renewal by Andersen of Central Pennsylvania offers some of the most energy-efficient picture and double hung windows.
3. Insulation
You should choose windows with good insulation if you want to use your sunroom throughout the year. This will help the room feel warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Proper installation is important because well-fitted windows provide better insulation.
4. Functionality
Picture windows have the biggest glass area among replacement windows. While picture windows allow a great amount of sunlight into the room, it’s not operable for ventilation. You can combine it with different window types to ventilate the sunroom. Many homeowners place two openable windows on each side of a picture window. Double hung windows are good for ventilation while sliding windows provide you with an unobstructed outdoor view.
