The Difference Between Better Living Sunrooms and Patio Rooms
By Andrew Caxton

The choice to add a sunroom to your home can be seem overwhelming at first with all the options and various aspects to think of. Going with a reliable product line from a reputable company can be a great way of making sure you get the information you need to make the right decisions when it comes to choosing your sunroom. Better Living is that company. Their knowledge of sunroom, patio, conservatory and awning products started all the way back in 1946- and they have been maintaining an industry lead ever since.

Three Season Sunrooms vs. Four Season Sunrooms

At first glance, many will see that there are various types of products available to them but cannot tell the differences between them. When it comes to sunrooms, there are patio rooms- or what is commonly referred to as 'three season sunrooms'- and there are 'four season sunrooms'.

Three season patio rooms are built on top of an already existing patio or deck that is able to withstand the weight and stress of the patio room. These types of rooms are more affordable and easier to install because they do not change or alter the lines of your home. There is no heating or cooling systems or ductwork on a three season patio room. This also cuts down on cost. Patio rooms come with a number of options in the way of screens and glass windows. On lovely spring days you can lift the windows and get a lovely breeze. You can decorate the room into a living space that fits your taste and style to a tee. Furniture, rugs, carpets and other cherished items will be safely protected within the sturdy construction of a Better Living patio room. Better Living patio rooms are constructed with only the highest quality of materials, tempered glass and heavy duty roofs.

If you're in the market for a fully climate controlled sunroom, then a four season sunroom is exactly what you're looking for. Better Living has been specializing and custom designing these home additions since 1986. From their sloped roof studio design to their A-frame design that includes gable type glass. Better Living has a number of custom sunroom options that will suit any number of tastes or preferences. Your current cooling and heating system are extended into your sunroom; meanwhile, their structures are built with vinyl that is reinforced with aluminum and then insulated for energy efficiency, guaranteeing you can enjoy your sunroom year round. Better Living sunrooms are also equipped with Energy Star qualified windows, which means they are completely energy efficient and will save you money on heating and cooling costs.
