Veranda vs Solarium
The question often asked is: What’s the difference between a solarium and a veranda?
The main distinction lies in the design and intended use of the space.
A solarium, often called a sunroom, is generally made up of glass walls to maximize exposure to natural light. It’s designed for total immersion in the outdoor landscape, whatever the weather.
A veranda, on the other hand, is a covered extension to the house, which can be opened or closed with windows.
It serves more as a porch or covered terrace.
Why a solarium?
Opting for a solarium means choosing a living space that provides a unique connection with nature while offering the comforts of indoors.
Whether for growing plants. From a relaxation area to an exceptional dining area, they bring light and warmth to your home, while increasing its value.
Regulations in Quebec
What is the surface area for a veranda without planning permission?
In Quebec, regulations may vary from one municipality to another.
In general, for small-scale constructions such as a veranda or solarium, if the floor area is below a certain threshold (usually around 10 to 20 square meters), planning permission is not required.
However, it’s crucial to check local regulations before starting any project.
How does a solarium work?
A solarium takes advantage of the greenhouse effect, capturing the sun’s heat and light through its glass walls.
This creates a warm, naturally lit space, ideal for enjoying sunny days, even in winter.
The design and orientation of the solarium are essential to optimize these benefits while minimizing potential drawbacks such as overheating in summer.
How do you heat a solarium in winter?
Although the solarium captures the sun’s heat, in cold climates such as Quebec, the sun’s heat is not lost. A supplementary heating system may be necessary during the colder months.
Solutions such as electric baseboard heaters, convectors or even underfloor heating can be considered to maintain thermal comfort all year round.
Good insulation and the right choice of glazing are also crucial to keeping the heat in without incurring excessive energy costs.
By incorporating these elements into your solarium project, you’re not only ensuring a pleasant, functional space. But also a structure that complies with standards and contributes to the energy efficiency of your home.
