Your taxes would go up if you remove the sliders between the house and the lanai. The choice of window material does not enter into the equation. This was straight from the fellow who did the final inspection for our enclosed lanai, which has double pane, low-e glass, and we did not have an increase in our taxes this past fall. Regardless, the increase would be relatively small. Just to be clear, this was with an existing lanai -there was no expansion of the lanai. The expansion of a lanai would presumably carry some tax consequences regardless of whether it was enclosed.

We then had Munns install the ductless Mitsubishi A/C and heating unit which has been fantastic. Never really use the heat but the A/C cools and quickly gets rid of humidity.
