To find out, we went to the experts, our customers. Here's what they told us: It lets in the best of the great outdoors. They love the broad vistas of the outdoors, letting in warm sunshine and a refreshing breeze. They also like keeping the bugs at bay, and being protected from the weather when it turns a little ugly. Essentially, they want that outdoor feeling, indoors.

It's a little more elbow room. Whether new from the ground-up, or enclosing a porch or patio, they’re creating more indoor living space. Those large windows make the home feel even bigger still.

It's like money in the bank. A sunroom or solarium is a great value. It adds very attractive, and very usable floor space at relatively low cost. Plus, it's built to last years and years. Bottom line, it adds value to a home.

It's a relaxation room. With bright sunlight, a refreshing breeze and a little more room to stretch-out, they discovered it’s the best place in the house to sit back and watch the world go by.
