From the Forum: Beating the Heat With a Sleeping Porch

A flat roof off the master bedroom seems like an ideal spot to create a sleeping porch and homeowners are looking for advice. While traditional sleeping porches were often enclosed, window-filled spaces, the homeowner is contemplating keeping it simple with a railing and simple flooring on the flat roof. Have other homeowners undertaken a similar project?

Please chime in with your advice.
