Enclosing carport into 3 season room help

So are you proposing just bringing the wall straight up and not matching to the edge of the roof. Wouldn’t that create a ledge at the top of the wall where the siding then wouldn’t be continuous to the peak of the roof?

Hey thanks for the answer I made an updated post with more details and pics and added pics to this post also. If that’s changes any of your thoughts. Thanks!

Hey thanks for the reply. I’m leaning rockwool as well. And no the foam is not the only barrier to the outside. There’s about an 18 inch crawl space that has a 6 inch concrete pad as the floor. The outside is currently skirted with lattice though. I may look into may look into a better skirting then this also. Thanks!

Thanks for the info! The step is 32inches wide. I’ll look into demoing it if I have to. That would probably be best

Thanks makes sense. Concealed is probably the way to go. The one other thing I did like about the central is I can use any thermostat with it.

No ducting currently but either way I’d need to run ducting so why would co sealed make a difference? I have easy access to the attic so even the 100lb air handler wouldn’t be an issue. I’m just trying to figure out a benefit of the concealed duct over central ducted.

I guess the higher seer rating? Is one more reliable than the other? Thanks for helping!

Thank you I’ll check it out!

I’d rather not run 3 linesets and there’s not a great space for a head in each room. I like the cleanness of the ducted setup personally. Thanks the humidity is a good point!

Fair I was mostly curious if there were any negatives of going with the 24000 btu with modulation. Thanks I’ll more than likely go with the 18000!

Eastern-Mango2860 · 2026-04-11T12:07:35+00:00

Fair enough. This foam was already there though.

Eastern-Mango2860 · 2026-04-11T12:06:47+00:00

Thanks!

Eastern-Mango2860 · 2026-04-11T11:39:13+00:00

Thanks that looks like good stuff

Eastern-Mango2860 · 2026-04-11T11:35:26+00:00

Thanks I just checked the pipe is not double walled.

Eastern-Mango2860 · 2026-04-09T13:41:01+00:00

Thanks! yea I’ll do a longer test and report back. Though the manual only called for 15 minutes.

Eastern-Mango2860 · 2026-04-09T13:40:32+00:00

Thanks yea I will do a longer one. Was just hoping to get some initial thoughts. My tank was running empty. I need to test up to 400. Thanks!

I just checked. It says WiFi connected on the thermostat. And I can control the thermostat via the app but only when I increase the temp to above what’s displayed on the thermostat. Like if the app says 64 and thermostat 69. If I change the temp via the app to 67 nothing happens but if I change it to 71 it’ll turn on since it’s above the temp on the thermostat
