Orangery / Conservatory Ventilation, Heating and Cooling Systems
Conservatory / orangery ventilation is very important if you want to maintain a comfortable environment.
As heat rises, it is important to have some form of ceiling ventilation be they:
· Manual roof vents
· Electric roof vents
· Electric roof vents with climate control and rain sensor
'Wall' ventilation options include:
· Double Glazed Windows – Trickle Vents
· Natural Window Ventilation Systems
· Single Sided Window Ventilation
· Single Sided Double Opening Window Ventilation
· Cross-Ventilation
· Sound Absorbing Ventilation
· Eaves Flow Ventilation system
A ceiling fan is a good option as it can aid conservatory air cicrulation. In the summer a fan can provide a down draught that will cool the conservatory and during winters by reversing the direction of the fan it can re-circulate warm air trapped at the top downwards. Extractor fans can be used in the summer as these will throw out the warm air inside the conservatory.
Using your conservatory / orangery through the winter requires a proper heating system to keep the temperatures comfortable. Such options include:
· Central heating
· Underfloor heating
· Electric heating
· Air conditioning
· Oil Heaters
· Fan Heaters for Conservatories
Sometimes low wall-mounted air conditioners make the best choice for cooling a conservatory. You also have the normal wall-mounted options if your conservatory has a high-level wall. These are usually the cheaper option. Air conditioners can be used all year round for either heating or cooling the space
