We have LOTS of windows (double paned) with 4'x6' windows in the all season room. Above those windows we have large glass windows which are commercial grade, insulated, with a special tinting (can't remember what it is).

Even so, we still get a more heat through those windows that I want in the late spring to early fall.

I suspect we will have a similar issue with the master bedroom which you will be able to see as the black roof south center of the house.

Please see the aerial of the house in this picture. NORTH is UP in this photo.

On the SW "back" of the house is a 10' porch with roof which shades the windows of that bedroom. It is significantly cooler than the all season room.

You can see the windows I am talking about in these photos:

I have considered building a shed roof over them.

I have considered simply getting blinds for the windows.

What do you recommend?

Thanks,
