Conservatory Construction

A well planned, modern conservatory should be glazed appropriately to ensure a comfortable living environment all year round. The roof of your conservatory can be fitted with a variety of technically advanced glazing materials, each of which have specific light and heat control benefits. The options are Polycarbonate Sheet or double–glazed glass sealed units.
POLYCARBONATE SHEET Light, strong and economic, this high performance, transparent or translucent, multi–walled thermoplastic material is specifically designed for insulated glazing applications. It is very durable and highly resistant to the effects of natural sunlight and ultra–violet. Available in a range of thicknesses and various coloured tints, anti–glare and sun–sheilding properties.
CLEAR		Standard – maximises solar gain	High light tranmission suitable for north facing conservatories and swimming pools.
BRONZE		Reduces solar glare	Recommended for East, West, South facing conservatories.
OPAL		Provides privacy	Recommended where conservatory or swimming pool is overlooked.
BRONZE / OPAL		Reduces solar glare / provides privacy	Recommended where conservatory or swimming pool is overlooked and for South facing conservatories. NB the outer surface is silvery grey colour.
HEATGUARD / OPAL		Deflects 50% solar radiation	Can eliminate the need for blinds.

DOUBLE–GLAZED GLASS SEALED UNITS Similar to domestic windows; two sheets of toughened or laminated safety glass, up to five times stronger than ordinary glass, produced to British Standards, are sealed together around the edges with an air gap between them. A range if tints and coatings can be added to either conserve extra heat or reduce internal overheating.
