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.

Excellent

Choice Windows, Doors & More, Inc.

Work so clean you can barely even tell they were there. They stand by their work and are professional through and through. Best part about my project is that they customized my new front door and reused my door slab at my request. Fits like it was made for the house. Excellent work Gents!!!!

Response from the owner:Alan, thank you for the five star review! We are thrilled with how this customized door installation turned out and that we were able to help you bring a unique entryway to your Ephrata neighborhood.

Replaced front door with double doors and rear patio doors with double doors. Choice Home Remodeling was our contractor to do the work. Had 2 door specialists working for 3 days. I call them specialists due to their years of experience and the pride they took in making sure everything was right. Plan on having more work done by them and highly recommend their services.

Response from the owner:Thanks so much, John! We really enjoyed working with you on door replacements in Lititz, PA. The 8' front door creates a beautiful entryway. Our team takes a lot of pride in their work, so it means a lot to hear that their experience and attention to detail stood out. We appreciate the recommendation and look forward to helping with your next home improvement project!

Tim and the team at Choice did an excellent job on our new front door. The Choice showroom is very nice and Tim led us through the buying process very professionally and with no pressure. The door arrived ahead of schedule and Jeff did an outstanding job in installation. No dust or mess and the door looks awesome! Highly recommended!!

Response from the owner:Thank you Robert for the review! We are proud to have provided you with a positive experience from your time in the showroom through installation. Please let us know if we can be of service to you for your future home remodeling needs.
