The conservatory is largely made up of glass. This has the wonderful benefits of allowing plenty of natural light in and giving you the chance to look out over your garden when relaxing. <\/p>\n
However, the amount of glass can have its drawbacks too. Mainly because a lot of heat will be lost through the panes. <\/p>\n
So to ensure your conservatory can still be used in the winter months it\u2019s important to ensure you have adequate heating.<\/p>\n
So let\u2019s take a look at the options at your disposal:<\/p>\n
Curtains have never really cut it in the conservatory, with homeowners instead opting for fashionable, sleek and sophisticated blinds. So when you invest in your own conservatory blinds, make sure they have the energy efficiency standards you need. <\/p>\n
With the right window blinds you can save hundreds of pounds on your heating be retaining up to 46% extra warmth in the conservatory. <\/p>\n
And it\u2019s not just for their heat retaining properties you should be considering blinds. With window blinds you can easily control your privacy, whilst blocking out the sun\u2019s glare, giving you a relaxing environment throughout the year. <\/p>\n
Conservatories tend to be built at the back of the home, connecting to another room and leading onto the garden. By zoning off the conservatory though with an efficient door, you\u2019ll cut the amount of space which needs to be kept heated. This means it\u2019ll be quicker and more efficient to heat your conservatory, without wasting any of the warmth on areas you\u2019re not using. <\/p>\n
Of course, radiators remain the traditional way of heating the home and your conservatory may already have these installed. For those conservatories which don\u2019t or where radiators wouldn\u2019t really be an option, then we certainly recommend underfloor heating. <\/p>\n
First of all, underfloor heating isn\u2019t viable with wooden or laminated flooring because the heat can warp the wood, but if you have a tiled conservatory floor then you\u2019re onto a winner. Obviously if you have tiled flooring you\u2019ll know it can be rather cold, which is why underfloor heating works a treat. <\/p>\n
A pipe system is installed beneath the floor which can be controlled with settings on a remote or fixed to the wall. As heat naturally rises, underfloor heating comfortably heats the whole conservatory from the ground up at an even distribution. <\/p>\n
