Are Sunrooms Cold in the Winter?

Despite their name, sunrooms sometimes have a reputation for being a bit chilly in the winter. A common question before purchasing a sunroom for homeowners in northern areas is whether or not sunrooms are cold in the winter. At TEMO Backyard Living, we have plenty of experience with sunrooms, since we install factory-direct options from the leader in outdoor living products: TEMO. So, do homeowners need to avoid their sunroom in the winter?

Factors to Consider

Unlike some home improvement questions, this one is slightly tricky since the answer will depend on many factors. These include:

Age

Older sunrooms, often made with outdated materials, can have poor insulation and thus potentially be cold.

Quality

It may seem obvious, but a high-quality sunroom made from premium materials will usually be more comfortable and maintain temperatures more efficiently.

Placement

The direction a sunroom faces is important and can have a big influence on temperatures—a north-facing sunroom will likely get colder faster than a south-facing one.

Location

Even the best sunrooms can get cold in a place with frigid winters, so homeowners in northern latitudes might not be able to use their sunrooms year-round, especially if they opt for a less-insulated three-season room.
