Enclosed Patio Adds Functionality & Comfort to Yukon Home

Yukon, Oklahoma is known for experiencing severe weather conditions throughout the varying seasons. Spring and summer months are met with thunderstorms, heavy rainfall and humidity whereas the wintertime is filled with chilling temperatures and harsh winds. That’s why our team at Pella of Oklahoma only recommends products that will stay strong in unpredictable weather.

The homeowners wanted to enclose their patio so they could enjoy the space all year — despite the variable weather. Our team was enlisted to install windows and patio doors to connect the indoor and outdoor living spaces. We recommended using Pella® Impervia® fiberglass windows and patio doors for their unbeatable strength.

This Yukon home features an amazing patio equipped with a fully functioning outdoor kitchen, dining table set and fireplace. These homeowners challenged us to enclose the patio, bringing to life their idea of a year-round entertainment space. Our team installed fiberglass picture windows and sliding patio doors with large glass panels. These selections create a seamless transition between the home and outdoor patio, adding functional square footage without the annoyance of pests and wildlife.

To protect their furniture and appliances from the elements, our team carefully selected SunDefense™ Low-E Insulating Glass. This glass option was perfect for the space as it safeguards the room from harmful ultraviolet light. Now, the homeowners do not have to worry about fading or discoloration in the enclosed patio.

With the extreme weather conditions faced in the heart of “Tornado Alley,” our clients were looking for a window and patio door solution that would meet their needs for strength and performance. We chose Impervia products made from Pella’s proprietary fiberglass material, the strongest material for windows.⁶¹ To ensure their lasting durability and sleek design, the products have a powder-coat finish, protecting the frames from potential scratches or dents.

With attention to detail and precision, our fiberglass products were properly installed with a protective sealant, making them resistant to air and water infiltration. This added protection helps reduce drafts and leaks. Now, the homeowners can potentially eliminate the overuse of air conditioning or heating. Additionally, the reliable water resistance ensures these selections stay properly sealed during the tornado and thunderstorm seasons, making them the ideal choice for Oklahoma residents.
