The best way to understand a screened in porch is to think of it like an outdoor room. To the naked eye it looks like nothing more than a fancy deck with a roof and screens for walls, but its really your ticket to enjoying the great outdoors on your terms. You'll be feeling the breeze and and listening to the sounds of nature without constantly swatting bugs away. It's also a great way to find some shade on a hot day without having to retreat inside and miss out on those precocious sunny days. If the all mighty dollar is the deciding factor then this will defiantly be your cheaper option when deciding how you should enjoy the great outdoors. Being a cheaper option doesn't mean you have to skip on any amenities. Skylights, ceiling fans, knee walls, even a fireplace to stay warm at night are just a few things you can add to your screened in porch. Your preferences and price point are your only limits.

Sunrooms are a little more self explanatory than you think. It's designed to protect homeowners from rain, wind, snow, and even heat while letting you bask in all the glory of the sun. It's a great way to increase the living space in your home while feeling a little more connected to the outdoors in any type of weather, having windows for walls will do that for you. Ultimately you will be sacrificing nature for comfort, but for places like Michigan that's not always a bad thing. Insulation, heating, cooling, and even the type of windows you choose are all factors that can help you decide how many seasons you want to enjoy your sunroom. Obviously all of these options will require more materials, time, and money when your project is all said and done. Combine that with how many months you want to use your new sunroom and you will definitely come up with a number that's higher than a screened in porch, along with being much nicer.
