Discover creative ways to block wind and rain from your screened porch.

If you are looking for ways to insulate a screened porch successfully, you have arrived. These ways to insulate a screened porch are sure to give you some ideas to make yours into the comfortable haven you wish it to be. If you live in central Maryland, Mid-Atlantic Deck & Fence can help you build or renovate your screened porch. 

Velcro Screens

One option is to install clear plastic or vinyl screens with the help of velcro, an adhesive we all know does wonders in holding things together. Instead of pliable plastic or vinyl sheets, you could even use fabric. Overall, a screen you can velcro over your screened porch’s windows will give you flexibility to let in the breeze or keep it out.

Tapestries

If you want to add some color and pattern to your screened porch, you can always try securing tapestries over the wide window screens. This idea is an effective way to keep out the wind, rain, and pollen and can also add a ton of personality to your outdoor living space.

Outdoor Curtains

Outdoor curtains are a sturdy and practical choice. Of course, they will not totally block out the elements unless you secure them more closely around the windows. However, they do allow you the flexibility of opening up the screened porch, and they also help to insulate the porch from the heat and cold.

Awnings

If you are most concerned about rain getting into your screened porch, an awning can help to some extent. Providing extra shelter around the windows will prevent rain from easily falling into the enclosure; it can also add some shade and relief during hot, sunny days.

Vinyl-Glazed Sliding Panels

Mid-Atlantic Deck & Fence offers Eze-Breeze Sliding Panels, rugged vinyl-glazed screens that can transform your screened porch into a sunroom. These screens are lightweight, custom-made, and easy to install. They also slide open, so you can still enjoy the fresh air on your screened porch.
