Will I be able to use my conservatory all year round?
×
Absolutely – with our Icotherm roofs, your conservatory can benefit from being up to 90% warmer in the Winter, and 70% cooler in the Summer. You’ll also benefit from reduced noise pollution, no solar glare, and extra privacy.
Is condensation a real problem?
×
Condensation can be a common problem in conservatories, especially during the winter months. Thankfully, our Icotherm roofs are designed specifically for ventilation. Combining the roof with the use of timber (low thermal conductivity), your conservatory will have a low-condensation risk.
How long does it take to complete a conservatory roof?
×
The time it takes to complete a conservatory roof will depend on the size and complexity of the roof. However, most conservatory roofs can be completed in 2 to 3 days.
Will my internal room feel darker?
×
It is possible that your internal room will feel darker after getting a conservatory. Having a tiled roof installed will ensure that you have no glare and heat/cold spikes. A small reduction in light will follow, but you can request to have Velux windows fitted into the ceiling to compensate.
