A screen room is not exactly the same as a sun room. Screen room exterior walls are made of screen material and acts as a sturdy space that is not completely separated from the outside elements which is the case with sun rooms. The exterior walls on sun rooms are made of glass windows and, in fact, add heat to the space; a problem in the summer months.

And no wants to pay higher energy bills to keep their sun room cool enough in the summer to use.
One of the major benefits to adding a screen room to your home is you add square footage to the home at a very low cost.

But even though it costs less, it still adds valuable space to the home, and this space is very useable and can be enjoyed by the whole family. A screen room allows the breeze to come through day or night and is a wonderful place to sit and enjoy the rain while staying dry.
