Year-Round Sunrooms
Our year-round sunrooms are our top-of-the-line sunroom product. Insulated glass and vinyl-wrapped, insulated aluminum keep your sunroom cool when it should be cool and warm when it should be warm. Add air conditioning, heat, or a brick fireplace for a true 4-season sunroom experience.
We proudly install high-quality Betterliving® all-season sunrooms, known for their durable construction, minimalist design, and customizable styles. With extruded, vinyl-coated aluminum walls, our rooms are virtually maintenance-free.
Energy-Star Rated
Our energy-star certified windows and doors provide outstanding insulation throughout the year. This means less drafts, lower energy cost, and less strain on your HVAC system.
Extra-Strong Roof
Our year-round sunrooms feature a durable insulated roof system with tough aluminum skins on both sides. The result is a quieter, more comfortable room that performs better through summer heat, winter cold, rain, and snow.
50-Year Warranty
Our year-round sunrooms come with a non-pro-rated, transferable warranty.
This means that you won't be on the hook down the road if your sunroom starts sharing wear after a few years.

All Season Sunrooms
Enjoy the Sun - And the Snow!
Mother Nature drops around 23-25" a year onto Central Ohio. The view from your sunroom will be amazing. But what about all that snow on your sunroom roof?
Never fear. Your roof can handle the weight. With extra-thick, insulated roofing and specially designed aircraft-grade aluminum beams and posts, your new Betterliving sunroom exceeds the toughest building codes in the US and Canada.
4-Season Patio Enclosures
Have an existing patio that you want enclosed? Our "under-existing" patio enclosures offer the same features and strengths as our sunrooms.
Stop bundling up just to sit out on your patio. A 4-season patio enclosure gives you the option to keep the windows open and enjoy the breeze, or flip on the air conditioning or heating for increased comfort on the hottest and coolest days of the year.
With the addition of energy-efficient PTAC units and mini-splits, you can just heat or cool your space with a touch of a button.
4-SEASON SUNROOM FAQS
What is a year-round sunroom?
A year-round sunroom, also called a four-season sunroom, is an insulated home addition designed for comfortable use during every season. Unlike a basic porch enclosure, it includes insulated walls, roofing, windows, and doors and can be equipped with heating and air conditioning.
Can a four-season sunroom really be used during a Columbus winter?
Yes. A properly designed four-season sunroom can remain comfortable throughout Central Ohio’s cold winters. Insulated glass, an insulated roof system, thermally efficient framing, and a dedicated heating source help keep the room warmer while reducing drafts and heat loss. You might not be basking in 80 degrees on a minus 10 degree day, but you will be comfortable all year long.
Can a four-season sunroom really be used during a Columbus winter?
Yes. Energy-efficient windows, insulated roofing, ventilation, and an appropriately sized cooling system can help keep the room comfortable during hot and humid Columbus summers. Some owners simply open the doors and let their regular air conditioning do the work. However, many homeowners choose a mini-split or PTAC unit so they can control the sunroom’s temperature separately from the rest of the home.
What is the difference between a three-season and four-season sunroom?
A three-season sunroom is generally intended for use during spring, summer, and fall. A four-season sunroom has more insulation and is designed to be heated and cooled, making it a better choice for Columbus homeowners who want dependable living space throughout the winter as well.
Do I need a permit to build a sunroom in Columbus?
Most year-round sunrooms require a permanent foundation or support system designed for the room’s weight, local soil conditions, and Central Ohio’s frost depth. The correct foundation will depend on your property, the room design, and applicable building requirements.
Don't worry! The OH Sunrooms / Garrety Home Pros team handles all of the permits, building requirements and inspections.
How do you heat and cool a year-round sunroom?
A ductless mini-split is a popular option because it provides both heating and cooling without requiring major changes to the home’s existing HVAC system. Depending on the project, other options may include a PTAC unit, an extension of the home’s HVAC system, electric heat, or a fireplace.
Can a year-round sunroom be used as regular living space?
Yes. Homeowners commonly use four-season sunrooms as family rooms, dining areas, home offices, playrooms, hobby spaces, or quiet places to relax. Because the room is insulated and climate-controlled, it functions more like an extension of the home than a seasonal porch.
