Note: Different Conservatory Glass Options
The right glass for your conservatory or your orangery lantern/s can make all the difference when it comes to maintaining the ideal temperature.  There are several factors that come into play while choosing the glass
Here is a quick look at the different kinds of glass:-
- Solar control glass has a solar control coating that reflects the sun’s heat which helps keep the interior cooler in the summer months
- Self-cleaning glass makes a good option for roofs and windows.  These have a special coating that prevents dirt build-up. One negative aspect of the self-cleaning glass is that it does not come with solar control properties
- The standard toughened glass is the most budget-friendly.  This does not provide any sort of energy efficiency and has no solar control functionality.
- Low emissive glass helps retain the heat generated in the conservatory.  It comes with a metallic oxide coating that reflects heat without preventing light from passing through.  This glass maintains the cool conservatory temperature during warmer summer months and stops heat from escaping during winter
- For those who are looking at maximizing their savings, energy-efficient glass makes the perfect solution.  The eco-friendly design reduces the amount of energy that escapes through the conservatory

While choosing your conservatory glass U values are an important measure to consider. This gives you the rate of heat lost through different types of glass.  Low U values mean less heat loss from the conservatory which will help reduce heating bills and make you energy efficient
