As a home addition, you want your sunroom to be a smooth transition both externally and internally. The following examples demonstrate how your sunroom can be custom tailored to any existing space.
This example showcases a single slope roof solarium option. The third option chosen for this addition is the tinted glass which provides extra shading and UV protection while reducing heat gain.
The addition of a large fixed window in place of a wall of small awning windows also allowed for better lighting and a better view of the beautiful lake behind their home. Location matters. Where you decide to place the sunroom in your home will affect how it functions. For example, homeowners in cooler climates will commonly place the sunroom on the south side of their home to capture more sunlight and warmth. Conversely, in warmer climates, homeowners have been known to place their sunrooms on a north or northwest side of the house to avoid an overwhelming amount of heat.
Above all, Berry stresses the importance of hiring a certified installation crew to reduce the risk of errors and ensure long-lasting performance.

For a translucent opening, the kick can be made either with operable sunroom windows — such as awning windows — or fixed glass. You may want to completely maximize the amount of glass in your room, while reducing the amount of visible framing pieces.
If this is the case, you can take out the kick and extend your sunroom windows all the way from the ceiling to the floor, creating one large window. We use large tempered picture windows to create an extended window, which strengthens the window and makes it possible to support the roof with such a large opening. This elegant style offers exceptional views and a neat, attractive design.
For sunroom owners with solid roofs hoping to capture a skyward view, skylights are a simple way to bring more natural light in from above.

Made with either tempered glass or translucent polycarbonate, this type of roof is a truly unique architectural feature. A glass roof offers all-encompassing views of the sky. It creates a conservatory feeling that fills a room with European sophistication. A polycarbonate roof system is opaque, and it brightens your sunroom with diffused natural light.
Polycarbonate is an incredibly strong material, able to withstand blows from dense hail and falling tree branches without shattering. Having tons of options to customize your sunroom is awesome.

The glass is made to block excessive heat from the sun in warmer months, which keeps you and your belongings from frying in the sun.
In colder months, it reflects heat from inside the home back inside to protect your furnace from being overworked. This gives an ideal balance of solar control and high visibility.
The insulation level, or R-value , i s the measure of how well a material slows the transfer of heat across itself. Higher R-values correspond with better insulating qualities. Thicker units contain stronger glass and a larger insulation space between the glass. Thicker units also have a greater insulation value. In colder areas, the dead air exchanges for a denser gas.
