Choosing the right conservatory design

Wednesday July 9, 2008 at 3:06pm

How do you choose the right design conservatory?  There are 3 main steps you will need to consider:

1.  The first thing is to choose the style of conservatory you want.  There is a wide range of style to suit all budgets.

2.  Next, consider what you want to use it for.  This will give you some idea of the options you may wish to include in your conservatory.

3.  Consider other areas which may impact upon the style of conservatory.

 

For example, assuming an edwardian style conservatory has been chosen for a property, what other factors should be considered?

If the conservatory is designed as an area for entertaining then a number of considerations could be taken?  How often is the conservatory likely to be used in the day?  How critical will noise levels be?  What extra heating and ventilation will be going into the conservatory?

With these factors in mind, a thermally efficient toughened glass, such as Conservaglass, may be chosen for a number of reasons: 1) it will retain heat in the cold winter months, 2) reduce heat in the warmer summer months and 3) will be quieter than polycarbonate when it rains.

 

Other areas that may impact upon the style of conservatory are whether planning permission is required.  A glass roof also may limit the overall possible size of the roof.
