Function
Sunrooms can be used in a variety of ways, from hot tub rooms to playrooms, home offices to exercise or garden rooms. Deciding how and when you're going to use the room will determine its design and construction requirements so that the best glass, framing materials and roof structure can be selected.

Location
Sunrooms can be built for use during various seasons and the amount of heat and sun your room gets will depend on the direction it faces. A sunroom that faces north is often the coldest, east will get the sun in the morning, west has the afternoon sun and the south-facing room will usually be the warmest.
