Aesthetics are totally up to you though! lol Best of luck with your 'nanas, and again, welcome, and thanks for sharing your successes.

Hi bananarana2,
We love our Solarium-spa combo.
Original purpose was for the Solarium is to cover the Swimspa, what occupies most of the place inside. I could force in some plants, and with the fireplace set to 60F min.
I hope everything will survive first winter here...
Thanks for all the good ideas. I will include to the winterizing plans and will make a couple pictures from the steps,
and the time is coming soon because overnight temp. is just over 0C with frost warning...
Thanks again: garbj
