Thanks for your excellent suggestion. I have not thought about the difference until now.

I would love to have ours enclosed with glass so we can use the lanai all year.

I'm beginning to re-consider installing Acrylic. I, like you prefer the wide open screens- the downside to me is that when it rains water comes in. How do you deal with this? The thought of having to wash all those windows & deal with the maintenance is not appealing not to mention the reduced air flow & "outdoor" feel. Did you do any kind of finish on your floor such as tile or coatings? Thanks for your input.
