24 Hour Room
Most patio enclosure and sunroom companies label their rooms by the number of seasons you can utilize the room. In addition to thinking about what seasons of the year you want to use your new space, you also need to think about:
What time of day do I want to use my patio enclosure or sunroom?
The unanimous answer...ANY time of day!
Many patio enclosures and sunrooms on the market are constructed of single pane glass:
Single pane glass has a very low R-value of 1. This causes your patio enclosure to be cold in the morning when temperatures are lower. As temperatures rise during the day, the warm air from the outside flows through the single pane glass, which can make your sunroom uncomfortably warm during the afternoon hours.
All Nu Home Patio Enclosure and Sunroom models are standard with dual-pane insulating glass and Warm-Ege Technology, increasing the insulating value of your sunroom's windows and sliding patio doors by 200%.
Insulating Glass Packages creating The 24-Hour Room
Nu Home Patio Enclosures and Sunrooms offer two optional insulating glass packages constructed of Low-Emissivity (LoE2) Glass, turning your Nu Home Patio Enclosure into The 24-Hour Room.
As shown in the diagram at right, LoE2:
1. Allows natural light to freely enter your DreamspacEĀ® Patio Enclosure and Sunroom.
2. In the morning hours, LoE2 glass reflects heated air back into the patio enclosure and sunroom, keeping it warmer.
3. In the afternoon, LoE2 glass reflects the warm outdoor air back outisde, keeping your patio enclosure and sunroom cooler.
