One of the most attractive and functional additions homeowners can make to their property is a Florida room. Also known as sunrooms, these spaces come in several different forms, from fully finished extensions of the home to outdoor areas with roof coverings. These home additions serve an array of enjoyable functions, from providing a relaxing space to read, converse, and unwind to increasing the market value of your property. There are several types of sunrooms, so homeowners have choices for every budget. Here's a few of the varieties of Florida rooms available to remodelers. 

A Look at 3 Florida Room Styles

1. The Outdoor Space

One of the simplest types of Florida rooms is characterized by a roof or awning attached to the home and surrounded with a screen. This is essentially an outdoor space that is enclosed on all sides. This is considered a Category 1 sunroom. 

2. The Semi-Finished Room

The second variety of Florida rooms also features a roof or covering, but instead of screen enclosures, it uses walls typically composed of plastic or glass. In addition, this second style complies with air leakage and water penetration standards. These are considered Category 3 sunrooms. 

3. The Fully Finished Room

The Category 5 sunroom features a roof, walls, and direct access to the HVAC system used in the rest of the home. The space is defined as habitable and conditioned, and it resembles other rooms in the home in terms of walls, flooring, and other materials.
