Had our lanai enclosed last year with sliding glass doors all around (low E glass with argon). Also had the floor raised to meet the living area floors. Did not add any new HVAC. The room is extremely comfortable year round with no portable heater or AC. As for the taxes, we were informed by Sumter county that taxes would be affected only if separate HVAC were added. Raising the floor or having glass did not affect our taxes. At the same time, we had a golf cart garage added which DID affect our taxes. Work was done by T&D whom I would highly recommend. They were here when they said they would be and finished within 3 days of the projected date. We had to wait for county inspection which delayed it the three days. They were also very neat and clean and made some good suggestions while the work was in progress. All in all a good experience.
