A true Florida Room is a part of the house. The walls floors and ceiling are the same as the rest of the house and the heating and cooling are part of the overall system. A lanai may or may not be enclosed with acrylic, vinyl, or glass, and may or may not be under air and heat, but generally does not have a finished ceiling, a floor level with the rest of the home, or walls of either studs or block. Some people call an enclosed residential lanai with heat and air a Florida Room, but it is technically still a lanai.
