We left the sliders, raised the floor, dual pane glass, but our tax bill went up about $100 per year. We can afford that. Our lanai was very dirty and dusty when we purchased the house, which was 4 years old. I cleaned it but told my husband that it would be the last time I would do it. He said let's enclose it so we did. We can use it no matter the weather and we can get the air without mosquitos.
