Your Sunroom: 3 Seasons or 4?

When planning your sunroom, first consider how you want to use your room. That will help you make the decision between a 3-season or 4-season addition. The benefit of a 4-season room is having extra space all year round to entertain or for your family to spread out. But if you just want a special place to enjoy the warmer months, then a 3-season sunroom provides what you need.

One of the biggest differences is a 3-season room doesn’t need insulation; a 4-season room needs to retain heat in the winter so that it can be used all year. A heating and cooling unit can be added to a 3-season sunroom to take the edge off of extreme temperatures, but it’s more efficient for temperature control year-round in the insulated 4-season room.

The type of glass differs as well, with single pane windows typically being installed in a 3-season sunroom and a 4-season room having more energy efficient windows throughout.

Even though there are construction differences, the decision to have a 3-season sunroom or a 4-season sunroom ultimately comes down to how you want to use your extra space.

Choice completed a large window replacement project at our home and we couldn’t be happier with the craftsmanship and service. Each and every interaction with the Choice team was professional, from sales to install. We would use Choice for any home project!

I would give Choice 10 stars if I could. The folks at Choice Home Remodeling have replaced all 31 of the windows in our house over the past year. They are incredibly professional and deliver an outstanding final product. The replacement windows look better than the originals and I get compliments on them all the time! The inside temperature of the inside glass on a 55 degree day has improved by 8 degrees! I am looking forward to seeing what the differential is once the weather turns cold. Their pricing is fair and the quality is second to none. I recommend them 1000%.

We absolutely love the new door we just had installed from Choice! We had such a great experience with Choice from start to finish. Tim was great and helped us pick out the perfect door for our home and didn't try to sell us the most expensive model and was honest, not pushy. Everyone we came in contact with was friendly and professional and the work was top notch.

I bought my windows from them. Everyone one was so nice and professional. Christie was very helpful. Thank you, will use again for other projects
