The Ideal Window Style For Sunrooms
May 24, 2018Installing a sunroom as part of your porch conversions is a great way to increase the value of your home significantly. It’s also functional since it gives you a place to enjoy your outdoor spaces without actually going outside. But what window style maximizes the benefits of sunrooms? Read on as BEE Window® discusses how to pick the best window style.

When you’re choosing a window for your new sunroom, pick a design that isn’t intricate or decorative. The whole point of a sunroom is to let the views and daylight in, so what you should look for are styles that feature large windows. Sliding and casement windows are the best choice for these since they have minimalist design and let generous amounts of light and exterior views in.
Fixed or Functional Windows
You also have to decide if the windows you’re getting are fixed or operable. Fixed windows are windows that you cannot open or close and are purely static. The choice actually depends on your personal preference. If you want the ability to open your windows, our team recommends either casement style if you want to completely open the window, or double-hung windows if you only want them to partially open.
Window Material
Since your sunroom windows will be exposed to heat and moisture, the kind of material that you should pick should have high durability and elemental resistance. We recommend our vinyl windows since they boast better heat and water tolerance than wood. If you’re worried about aesthetics, don’t worry. Our vinyl windows can actually imitate the look and feel of wood!
