You may have heard that conservatories are too cold to use in winter and too hot in the height of summer, however technology has vastly improved and this is no longer the case with new conservatories. However, what can you do to make your existing conservatory comfortable all year round?
If you have a polycarbonate roof on your conservatory and have noticed that you can rarely use the room in the winter, it may be worth considering getting a replacement roof. While polycarbonate was a popular choice back in the 80s and 90s, it does not offer the same thermal efficiency as a glass or tiled roof. Instead of simply using a conservatory as a sunroom like in years gone by, today a conservatory can be seen as simply a glazed extension of your home. It can be used as anything from a kitchen extension to a dining and entertaining room.
With as much or as little glazing as you like, you can flood the room with natural light and maintain your privacy. As well as creating a warmer conservatory for the winter, you also have the added benefit of modernising it with a brand-new roof. Here at Poole Joinery Windows, we offer two conservatory roof options. Our glass roofs provide the maximum amount of natural light with beautiful views of your outside space, sea views or the sky on a sunny day. Thanks to the benefits of modern glazing technology, your conservatory will regulate its temperature making it the perfect space to use throughout the year and whatever the weather.
Our tiled roofs give the appearance of your conservatory being a natural extension of your house. With U-values as low as 0.16 W/m2k possible, they have unrivalled thermal performance and little additional heating will be needed. With little to no maintenance required, our lightweight tiled roofs can last for up to 50 years.
