A four-season glass room
The difference between a sunroom you use a few months a year and one you use year round is the frame and the glass. A thermally-broken aluminum frame with insulated glass holds temperature far better than a basic single-glazed room, so the space stays comfortable through more of the year. We build to your layout, whether that is a glazed roof for a true conservatory or a solid roof with glass walls.
Common questions
The terms overlap. A sunroom is a glass-walled room added to a house for light and views, often with a solid or partly glazed roof. A conservatory is the more traditional term for a fully glazed room, glass walls and usually a glass roof. Crateworks builds both in thermally-broken aluminum to your design.
A thermally-broken aluminum frame with insulated glass holds temperature far better than a basic single-glazed sunroom, which is what makes a four-season room possible. The exact performance depends on the glass and how the room is conditioned, which we work through with you.
A sunroom added to an existing home is a renovation or addition. We position our sunrooms for that, and we confirm any structural or energy certification in writing before a project that requires it, since requirements vary by jurisdiction.
