From what I understand in the past when you put glass windows in it was considered another room but that is no longer the case.

I too was told that bringing the floor up to level with the rest of the house AND running HVAC ductwork to the room would cause it to be considered as a Florida Room and additional square footage to the home for tax purposes, regardless of the type of windows.
