What is a Solarium?
A solarium is an enclosed room attached to your house that built almost entirely of windows. It's designed to maximize natural light and provide a connection to the outdoors while maintaining some indoor comforts.
Solariums, also referred to as conservatories, have been used for centuries and were particularly popular in the Victorian era. They are often added as an extension to a house or even as a standalone structure in the garden or on a patio.
The design of a solarium is optimized to take advantage of natural light, and the materials used are often chosen for their ability to trap heat and provide insulation. This means that solariums can be used year-round in many climates (including Ohio), providing a warm and inviting space to enjoy the outdoors even during the colder months.
Pros of a Solarium Addition
A solarium addition offers numerous benefits that enhance the overall living experience. First and foremost, a solarium provides unobstructed views of the outdoors, allowing you to enjoy sweeping vistas in their full glory. With walls and ceiling made of glass or other transparent materials, there is nothing to impede your view of the natural surroundings, whether it's a sunny day or a snowfall.
In addition, a solarium offers a layer of protection against the elements, making it an ideal space to relax and unwind while still feeling connected to nature. While you may initially wonder if sitting outside would be a better choice, a solarium allows you to enjoy the soothing sounds of the rain without getting wet, or the cool breeze on a hot summer day without being uncomfortable.
Plus, solariums are versatile spaces that can be used in many ways. Whether you want to use it as a place to read, practice outdoor yoga, stargaze, or grow out-of-season plants, a solarium can be adapted to suit your specific needs and desires. It offers a unique space that provides endless possibilities for relaxation and enjoyment, making it a worthwhile investment for any homeowner.
Cons of a Solarium Addition
While solariums offer numerous benefits, there are also some potential drawbacks to consider before deciding to install one.
First, maintaining a solarium can be challenging due to its all-glass structure. It is necessary to keep the space clean to ensure unobstructed views, but constant exposure to the elements can make this a difficult task.
Second, solariums can become quite hot, especially during the warmer months (or quite cold in Ohio winters). Although this may be advantageous for those using the space as a greenhouse, it may detract from the overall enjoyment of the space. However, this issue can be mitigated by installing a vent fan or retractable screens to regulate the temperature and block out some sun.
Lastly, solariums tend to be the most expensive type of sunroom due to the high cost of building materials and installation. If budget is a concern, alternative options such as a traditional sunroom addition or a DIY sunroom kit may be more cost-effective.
While the benefits of a solarium may outweigh these potential drawbacks, it is important to carefully weigh the pros and cons before making a decision.
