If you R here only in the hot summer get a north lanai, otherwise south to south east.

Look at the solar charts, it's really a simple decision, North lanai cold in the winter, garage will get very hot along with any rooms facing south.

I think U will have more lanai time in cold months with a south/southeast direction.

Solar is my hobby I did a lot of research on this issue but others will disagree, it's all about the correct choice for U.


.

Now we find that we spend by far more time in the lanai than any other part of the house.
