Conservatory to hot?
A room for every day
Today’s home owner wants more from his conservatory polycarbonate roof. It is now seen as an extension to the normal house hold living space to be used seven days a week, 365 days a year, whatever the weather hot or cold. However, as many owners can testify, a conservatory can become almost unusable on hot sunny days because of solar heat gain, and uncomfortably cold in winter because of heat loss. This is because up to 80% of the sun’s solar energy passes directly through a standard polycarbonate conservatory roof, creating a ‘greenhouse effect' inside, rendering the conservatory too hot for use.
Increased comfort
Smart Poly, with its integral solar protection, prevents up to 80% of the sun’s solar energy from entering the conservatory through the roof, helping to maintain a comfortable internal temperature. The roof will also reduce glare by 80%, further increasing comfort levels in the conservatory. In winter, most of the heat lost escapes through the conservatory roof; with a Smart Poly roof, a large proportion of rising heat is radiated back into the room, helping to maintain comfortable temperatures and reducing heating costs.
