Solariums

How much does a solarium or sunroom kit cost to install?
DIY installation is free — most Gazebo Penguin and Sojag solariums are designed for homeowner assembly. Professional installation typically costs $500-$2,000 depending on size and site preparation.
Do solariums add value to a home in Canada?
It can. A three-season solarium adds sheltered, usable space that many buyers appreciate, but how much it adds to resale value depends on the home, the local market and the installation, so we can't promise a figure.
What is the difference between a freestanding and wall-mounted solarium?
Freestanding solariums can be placed anywhere in your yard. Wall-mounted models attach to your home's exterior wall, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor space.
Can I use a Sojag solarium in winter?
Yes, with limits. Sojag solariums with polycarbonate roof panels are three-season structures built to withstand Canadian winters. The panels block UV year-round, but the space is not heated or insulated like an indoor room.
What Gazebo Penguin solarium sizes are available?
Gazebo Penguin Florence solariums come in 8'x12', 8'x16', 10'x10', 10'x12', 10'x14', 12'x12', 12'x15', and 12'x18' sizes, in Sand, Slate, and Black colors.
Can I install a Sojag solarium myself, or do I need a contractor?
Most homeowners can install a Sojag solarium as a DIY project with 2 people over a weekend. No specialized tools are required.
What is included with the Sojag Korado 10x14 solarium?
The aluminum structure with PVC windows and mosquito screens, two doors, the galvanized steel roof kit and the manual.
Can the side door be on either side?
Yes, you are able to install the sliding door to any side of the wall.
Do Gazebo Penguin solariums come with a warranty?
Yes. Gazebo Penguin Florence solariums include a manufacturer's warranty. The aluminum frame has a longer warranty than the polycarbonate panels and screens.
Are the Sojag Korado solarium windows glass?
No. They are PVC windows with mosquito screens, which are lighter and safer than glass while still blocking wind, rain and insects.

What is the difference between the Myrdal solarium with a metal roof and the polycarbonate-roof version?
The room is the same; the metal roof is solid galvanized steel in black, while the polycarbonate roof is beige and lets daylight through.
How does the Sojag Korado 10 x 16 wall solarium attach, and what space does it need?
