Solariums and Sun Rooms

Shelter Systems' Solarium sun rooms, attached to a house, will catch and hold the sun's warmth. If the Solarium encloses a window or door, these can be opened during the day to allow collected heat to enter the house.

Our Solarium sun rooms are known for their lightweight construction as well as for the large amount of light they let in, more than glass. These Solariums have served to expand family living spaces, to create studios, playrooms, retreats, sun rooms, attached greenhouses, and more.

Sturdy Design
The Solarium is made wholly of a White or Translucent superstrong, woven ripstop film. All fabrics we use have been treated with ultraviolet inhibitors which protect against sun exposure, are watertight, and will not rot or mildew.

The frame of the Solarium is constructed of strong, long-lasting PVC tubing. Patented Grip Clips tm join the Solarium's cover to the frame. Grip Clips tm provide greater strength than sewn seams or any type of grommet, because they do not puncture the cover. Each panel of our Solarium is shingled over the next so that they breathe, yet are completely leakproof!

Light and Fresh Air
The Solarium 14, 18, and 20 have two flap doors; one to each side. The door coverings close automatically so you can go in or out quickly. There are no zippers to fumble with or break. Clear vinyl windows above the doors let you see out.

Easy Set-Up Setting up a Shelter Systems' dome
You will be pleased with how easily your Solarium sets up in 30 minutes without tools. You simply insert interchangeable poles into connectors spaced evenly over the cover. The poles bend slightly when inserted, which tightens the cover into a wind- and waterproof dynamic shelter. Turn or move the dome into desired position. When your Solarium is not being used, just take out the poles, roll up the dome, and store it in a closet. Storage, when not in use, will extend the life of the covering.

Attaching the Solarium
The Solarium is attached to your house by means of a 6" skirt of the superstrong film. This 6" skirt extends along the entire edge which attaches to your house. Since the type of house siding you have determines how you attach the Solarium to your house, we do not include nails, screws or other hardware for attachment. We provide a manual telling you how to put up your Solarium, with suggestions on how to attach it to various types of houses. It takes about 30 minutes to attach the Solarium.

A Shelter System
The Solarium come complete with stakes, guy lines, vent tubes, spare parts and an instruction booklet that details floors, anchoring, how to attach the Solariums to your house cooling, winterizing, and stove installation.

You get a lot more volume as you go up in diameter. When you step inside the 18' after just being in the 14', the 18' feels twice as big. The 20' feels twice the size of the 18'. This is because the extra feet in diameter extends out in all directions creating a large increase in volume. Since the surface area of the covering does not increase as rapidly as the volume, the larger Solariums are less expensive for the amount of space you get.
