[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assume no vinyl windows, just heaters. Then how much can you comfortably use it?[/quote] I would not recommend this. The vinyl panels not just help keep wind out, but they keep the porch furniture clean from dust and pollen. We've had one without vinyl panels and it's unbelievable how much, and how quickly pollen builds up in the spring, and dust accumulate throughout the year. It's a lot of work just to keep the porch usable from the cleaning point. Now we have one with the panels and will never go back. [/quote] Agree. And if you are building from scratch (or even retrofitting an existing porch), the Sunspace panels are not prohibitively expensive. We have Sunspace windows, a gas fireplace, and large ceiling fan. We use it every day year-round. In the coldest months, we add a space heater to supplement the fireplace.[/quote]
