The rainy season is upon us, but that doesn't mean we have to stop enjoying outdoor living. In fact, the rainy weather can make for a lot of cozy moments at home. Often with certain types of backyard rain cover solutions, however, visibility can be limited, or the water disposal system of the outdoor space just isn't that great. Here we tell you how you can make most of those cozy autumn days on your patio. 

With summer almost behind us, it's time to embrace the beauty of autumn from behind our retractable glass walls. With your Lumon sunrooms, you'll have the chance to enjoy the beautiful colours of fall without the autumn rain and wind.

Do you have a patio roof, but somehow feel that you could get even more use of your space? With a patio cover, you are most likely enjoying your outdoor space much more than without any protection, but what if there was a way to add even more value to your outdoor space, so that you could spend time enjoying that extra space in your home just a little bit more? 

Have you been thinking about enclosing your balcony? Perhaps birds bother your balcony life or you just feel that you are not putting the balcony to its best possible use, especially when the rainy or snowy weathers come along.

Growing your own herbs not only can benefit your physical health and overall experience of food, but can also give you a psychological boost. It's true! Watching something grow that you planted yourself is rewarding for your brain. It can also be a great way to learn more about self-sufficiency, or to educate yourself (and your children) on the basics of what growing your own food looks like. 

Energy costs are rising around the world, and we're all wondering: what can I do to save on energy costs, while still upkeeping a comfortable lifestyle? The way light enters your home, as well as insulation has a lot to do with how energy is stored inside your household. 

Many countries are experiencing heat waves, as is Canada... Often in summer heat, all you want to do is to enjoy the comfort of air conditioning, but then you're missing out on the warm waves of summer, which, as we know, don't last for too long in northern countries. 

Sunrooms don't just contribute to the physical well-being of your home, but also to the physical well-being of its residents, or yourself. We spend a lot of our time at home, and it is important to consider how the home can be made into a safe, healthy, and happy environment, which enhances your well-being rather than taking away from it. 

When it starts raining outside, exercising outdoors isn't maybe the thing to do. Going to the gym can get exhausting, as well. What about if you could turn your outdoor space into the best at home gym? 

Depending on the location of the sunroom on your house, your outdoor space may be exposed to a lot of sunshine. That being said, your sunroom can get quite hot, especially in the summertime. Retractable sunroom walls are a great solution to ensure that you can get sufficient ventilation into the room, no matter the season. Retractable solutions also help to ensure that there is no excessive moisture build-up in your room.
