If you do not put A/C in the lanai, then it is not taxed as an extension of your home.

We just slide everything open and turn on the fans, cools it right down.
This was my understanding of the rules concerning A/C installs in Lanai's.
We have lived here for 15 years. I have yet been able to open my windows turn on a fan and have my house cool down in the hot summer months.
