I have a west facing enclosed lanai with a minisplit and insulated draw drapes/curtains, slider has been removed. I pull furniture away from the wall , leave all ceiling fans on low and minisplit off. AC in house set at 80 , humidity at 60. Never a problem. This is a " cottage"house , Lanai is about 9x15.
A friend has a patio villa, east facing enclosed lanai. They bring all furniture in, close the door. Never had a problem, they have no window shades/covering.
