10 Simple Steps to Winterize Your Sunroom
2
Having a sunroom is a boon, especially during
winters. It gives you a perfect escape from the
harsh and cold winds by allowing you to have the
pleasure of the winter sun. But this is only
possible if you have an all- seasons sunroom. In
case you do not have one, you will have to take
some steps to winterize your sunroom. Until and
unless you prepare your sunroom for winters, you
will not be able to enjoy the winters under the
azure sky, absorb Vitamin D that too without
getting affected by the bugs and insects. Once
you winterize your sunroom, you will be able to
enjoy throughout the holiday season and beyond.
Take full advantage of the light coming in by
transforming your sunroom into a winter-ready
haven. Sunrooms are often left unattended during
summers unless these are four-season. So, when
winters arrive, it is the time to deep clean the
sunroom and set it up for use in the coldest
season. Winters is the time to treat yourself
under the warmth of sunrays, sip hot chocolate,
coffee, or tea and relax. Winters are here! If
you have a sunroom, just make the best of it. Do
it with us! Follow the steps below and get
started.

Get Your Sunroom Cozy Blankets
Winters and blankets share a special relation
with each other. Just lock up in the sunroom and
hug yourself in the warmth of cozy blankets. This
may seem obvious but you need to get out of your
lazy self, clean the sunroom to make it winter-
ready. Place pillows, bedding, if possible and
transform your sunroom into a complete room. Get
up, use a scrub and make your space welcoming,
clean and bright. Windows will remain closed
during winters so you can easily do some deep
cleaning. Declutter Pack away warm-weather
decor such as seashells and outdoor toys to be
used for the next summer. You can also relocate
any summer and fall plants that are now
dormant. Use the top-down method of cleaning.
Clean ceiling fans, light fixtures with a
microfiber duster or you can also use vacuum dust
attachment. A window cleaner will help make
short work of any grime left on glass light
covers. Use microfiber to dust the walls and
polish the windows. Use vacuum baseboards, chair
cushions, floors, and rugs.

Curtain, Curtains on the Windows!
If you have been using sunroom during summers,
then you will have to replace the summer
curtains with the thick, thermal curtains. Winter
curtains will keep the heat in your sunroom and
prevent cool air from coming in. Use the
curtains and give your sunroom a cozy and a warm
look. To make your place more interesting, use
bright fall, winter colors curtains.
5
Install Fireplace for Warmth
Snuggle inside the sunroom, add warm fireplace
during the winters. But also make sure you keep
some ventilation else the space may get really
hot. You can use a portable electric fireplace
and add coziness into your space. Pro Tip
Install a ceiling fan so that the warmth gets
distributed throughout the screen room or
sunroom.

Layer the Sunroom Floor
In order to prepare the sunroom from getting
cold, try layering the sunroom floor. It will
help in blocking the cold. You can also place rug
pads. Use only winter rug pads. With the retreat
of winters, you can replace the rugs with the
summers rug pads. If you want to get rid of
frequent changes, it is advised to place rug
pads that can be used for the whole year long.

Place Outdoor-Grade Fabric Pillows
The pillows can be used both in summers and
winters. Use outdoor-grade fabric pillows and
enhance the beauty of the sunroom. You can also
consider placing plush throws over the back of
the sofa and chairs so these are easy to grab.
8
Add Winter Décor
While you winterize your sunroom, consider
enhancing its aesthetics. Do it by adding winter
décor such as potted Norfolk pines, a basket of
pine cones, a tray of scented candles, and a
stack of books to make the room more welcoming
and interesting.

Lightening is Crucial
Even though sunrooms get natural light in
abundance, you would need some lamps, hanging or
string lights for gloomier days. Days in winters
are short and when days get shorter, the weather
gets colder. So, you must take some time out to
transform your sunroom into a bright relaxing
winter escape. A sunroom also called solarium,
sun parlor, sun-lounge or sunporch, is not just a
mere space. It is a whole living room in itself.
If you have one, use it to its full capacity. If
you do not have a sunroom, consider getting.

Weather-Proof Your Sunroom
Prefer installing weather-striping. This will
prevent your warm air from leaking out around
the window frames. You can also use a clear caulk
to seal the areas between window frames and the
wall or even between the two window frames.
Alternatively, you can also add a clear
insulation to the surface of the windows.

It Worth Getting a Sunroom?

• Definitely! You must get a sunroom not because it
  provides you additional space, but also because
  it is a long- term investment. A sunroom adds
  real estate value to the market. The sunrooms are
  quite accommodating.
• You can transform them into any space you want.
  For instance, you can turn it into a kids
  playroom, dining room, work from home station,
  entertainment room, bedroom, or, even a bar. Just
  go as per your convenience. Converting your
  sunroom into a living space will hardly cost you
  anything if done all by yourself. You will just
  have to spend a few dollars on buying decoration
  pieces, curtains, pots, or anything that you may
  want to add in the sunroom. Unless you convert
  your three-season sunroom into a four-season
  sunroom, you will not be going out of the
  budget.
