These sunrooms can be erected by do-it-yourself clients and offer an excellent balance of quality, price, flexibility and time savings in erection time. Although each unit is custom designed, they are manufactured in a manner, which keeps your cost down. The custom modular units result in easy and speedy erection of your sunroom. In addition, the fabrication of these sunrooms can accomodate slightly out of level or square exisiting conditions within limits and are designed to be attached to your home or park model trailer. Our sunrooms provide custom designed additional living space embedded with natural light, attached to and accessible from your home or park model trailer. In northern climates a southern exposure is the best location because the sunroom will receive light the majority of the day. In southern climates an easterly exposure is best for providing morning sun and shade the rest of the day. The roof of a sunroom can be all glass, which may result in significant heat loss in cooler weather or attraction of too much heat in the summer. A solid aluminum insulated roof sunroom (R12 to R 24) is the answer. A sunroom usually has windows on all sides which allows sunlight into the room. If one would like to enhance the light further then optional skylights can be ordered which will provide further light without the disadvantages of a fully glassed roof. Choose an operating skylight if you are in a southern climate to allow you further options to release any unwanted heat in the sunroom. Our sunrooms offer the client the options of glass or tinted soft vinyl. Glass is a bit more expensive but provides more clarity, while the vinyl is tough and has memory! Our extended season sunrooms are built with low E Argon filled thermal pane glass which reflects the heat and ultraviolet rays.
Each sunroom, Patio Enclosure is built from modular walls
panels and modular roof panels. On all sunroom, Patio Enclosure
models, the walls can be extensively windowed (or screened
in the case of the fully screened sunroom, Patio Enclosure
Model 100) except for 3" at each corner of the sunroom, Patio Enclosure. To accomplish the extensive windows,
four sizes of standard window are available (36", 42",
48", and 54" wide). Custom sized windows may also
be obtained. The walls of the three season sunroom, Patio
Enclosure are 3" thick and insulated with 1 pound expanded
polystyrene (R12) vacuum pressed between a .024"
stucco embossed aluminium skin (colour options) on the external side and
a .032" embossed white polyvinyl chloride (P.V.C.)
(colour options) skin on the inside. The aluminium has a baked, powder coated
paint finish. The P.V.C. is used on the inside of the sunroom in lieu of aluminium as it is resistant to dents and
is therefore more user-friendly for families with young
children. All sunroom models come with one sliding patio
door. Optional additional patio or hinged doors can be added
to the sunroom, Patio Enclosure. The customer has a choice
of external wall colours (some colours are at additional
cost).
Fixed or operating Skylights are available as an option and more than one skylight may be placed in a roof of the sunroom, Patio Enclosure if desired by the client. Locations of Skylights in the roof can be specified by the customer but must be at least 2" from the edge of the roof panel. Normally Skylights are centered in a roof panel. The hole for the skylight is pre-cut in the factory. The benefit of the aluminium roof over one which is entirely glass is the insulation value in the roof. Making it cooler in summer and warmer in cool temperatures. The skylight option allows the client to choose the amount of light that they wish to enter through the roof. The sunroom, Patio Enclosure roof comes with an integrated extruded gutter and fascias. The customer has a choice of gutter and fascia colours. These are normally matched to the colour of the walls. In addition, if the customer wishes the gutter and fascia may be dressed up with optional colour strips.
