Creating a Cozy Winter Sunroom Sanctuary

Creating a Cozy Winter Sunroom Sanctuary

Innovative Livingspaces is proud to create four season sunrooms that you and your family can enjoy all year long, including winter. Even though our sunrooms are created to keep you comfortable 365 days a year, if you are looking to bake in some more warmth and coziness into your space, here are some ways to do that.

Use Insulated Curtains or Blinds

Install insulated curtains or blinds to trap heat inside during the night. Opening them during the day allows sunlight to warm the space naturally, while closed curtains provide an additional layer of insulation.

Invest in a Space Heater

Supplement your existing heating system with a space heater designed for indoor use. Electric or infrared heaters are portable and can efficiently warm up your sunroom without requiring major modifications to your HVAC system.

Consider Radiant Floor Heating

For a luxurious and even heating solution, consider installing radiant floor heating. This system heats the floor, providing warmth from the ground up and ensuring a cozy atmosphere in your sunroom.

Add Plush Rugs and Carpets

Covering the floor with plush rugs or carpets adds an extra layer of insulation and comfort. Not only do they enhance the warmth, but they also create a cozy and inviting atmosphere in your sunroom.

Seal Doors and Windows

Check for any gaps or drafts around doors and windows. Use weatherstripping or draft stoppers to seal these areas, preventing cold air from entering and warm air from escaping.

Use Furniture with Warm Textiles

Choose furniture with warm, textured fabrics like wool or fleece. Not only does this add to the comfort of the space, but it also helps retain heat and create a snug environment.

Add Layered Lighting

Enhance the ambiance by incorporating layered lighting. In addition to your main light source, use floor and table lamps with warm-toned bulbs to create a cozy atmosphere, especially during the darker winter evenings.

Implementing these tips will help you create a warm and inviting four-season sunroom that can be enjoyed even during the chilly Colorado winters! If you are contemplating adding a sunroom onto your home, feel free to reach out to our team with any questions you have. We would be happy to answer them and get you started on your journey to more sunny days and more living space.
