Screen Room vs Porch Enclosure

Many people often wonder what the difference is between a Screen Room Enclosure and Porch Enclosure. There is a big difference between the two, and I will discuss how they differ in this blog post. Living in Florida, the bugs are very bad in the evening so it is very important to either invest in a Screen Room or a Porch Enclosure. The most popular enclosure for the back patio is the Screen Room Enclosure.

Screen Room Enclosure

The screen room enclosure is the most popular type of enclosure on the patio. The screen room enclosure consists of kickplates, aluminum panels, screening, aluminum roof, and gutters. Screen Room Enclosures are great for keeping the bugs out and allowing fresh air to enter the screen room. Whether you’re looking to have a Screen Room Enclosure built from scratch or looking to replace a few aluminum panels or rescreening, we’ve got you covered. Adding a screen room also protects the room from rain since there is an aluminum roof over top.

Porch Enclosure

A Porch Enclosure is similar to Screen Room Enclosures but they are much more insulated. A porch enclosure adds insulated kickplates and acrylic slider windows to enclose the existing screen room enclosure. This will allow the room to be more insulated and give it versatility allowing the homeowner to slide the acrylic windows open to let air in or close to insulate the room. Many people transform their existing screen room enclosure into a porch enclosure so that they can use the room as a spare room, home office, craft room, home gym, etc.
