Suggestions or comments? Our realtor suggested solar screens? We will be snow birds for awhile, not sure how impacted we will be by the setting sun. At least we can sit out there in the mornings!
Our lanai faces West, too, and we love it. However, knowing that Summer temps and sun would be uncomfortable sometimes, we screened in the front porch. Now, depending on temperatures, we can be in the sun or out of it. Both front porch and lanai have a ceiling fan.
