2015 SunPorch Product Guide

The twin wall polycarbonate roof is lightweight, durable…and strong

Watch A Branch Fall!

www.sunporch.com

Supports heavy snow loads

Impact resistant

The roof is 200X stronger and only 1/8th the weight of glass!

Roof Vents…SunPorch’s natural exhaust system

You’ll never have to worry about wind, rain, snow, hail or falling branches. Along with its super strength, our roof glazing is also incredibly light weight. That’s why our seamless, leak-resistant, 3' wide sections up to 15' long are easy to lift...easy to install...and keep SunPorch light enough to mount on your existing deck or patio.

Beautiful light and 100% UV protection The roof glazing delivers 100% protection from the sun’s harmful UV rays without annoying glare or uncomfortable hot spots.

Guaranteed for 10 years The roof is designed to withstand prolonged exposure to sun, rain, wind and snow and covered by a 10 year warranty against yellowing and discoloration.

Our roof is strong, light weight, energy efficient, durable and long lasting.

Air circulation and the efficient venting of warm and stale air is a critical component of the SunPorch’s overall design.

Air circulation is the key to comfort Proper air circulation, particularly during the warm summer months, is essential to your comfort in any outdoor room.

That’s why we designed Roof Vents right into our standard SunPorch kit. During the warmer months these vents help to draw cool, fresh air in through the Easy-Slide windows. As the air warms and rises naturally it is continuously vented through the roof keeping you cool and comfortable.

Weather tight & insect screened We include one Roof Vent for every 3' roof bay to optimize air circulation and the ventilation of warm air. Each vent is 1' square, fully screened and thoroughly and permanently weather sealed. Each vent is installed in a pre-cut factory opening one foot from the top ridge of the SunPorch.
