If you already have a porch that you love but struggle to make use of, screened porches might offer a solution to get you outside while still enjoying the comforts of an enclosed space.
Here are just a few ways screened porches can offer you a more comfortable outdoor experience:
- Prevent pesky pests. The most obvious perk screened porches offer is protection against bugs. Whether it’s flies and wasps drawn to your picnic lunch or evening mosquitoes leaving you with itchy bites, insects can detract from the outdoor experience. Screened porches offer a barrier against annoying pests, while still allowing you to soak up the sun and feel the gentle breeze. Furthermore, screened porches can allow you to relax with your pets without worrying about them running out into traffic or getting into other dangerous situations.
- Keep things clean. Insects aren’t the only thing screened porches keep out. While not an impenetrable barrier against debris, screened porches are easier to maintain compared to open, unenclosed porches. Although you’ll still need to occasionally sweep the floor of screened porches, the area should stay cleaner.
- Enjoy indoor comforts. Screened porches can act as extensions of your home. So, if you want to bring more indoor comforts to the space, like a ceiling fan for hot days or shades for when the light is a little too bright, you can feel free to do so.
