Embrace Coolness: How to Beat the Heat in Your Conservatory

As the summer heat intensifies, some conservatories can become uncomfortably hot, if they’re older or poorly insulated.

Luckily, Planet’s conservatories are designed to provide comfort year-round.

Whether you already own a conservatory or plan to invest in one, there are several steps you can take to keep it cool and enjoyable.

Solid roofs or solar control roofs

One of the most effective ways to maintain a cool conservatory is by installing a solid roof. Unlike traditional glass or polycarbonate roofs, solid roofs offer superior insulation, minimising heat transfer and creating a comfortable space even on scorching summer days.

Additionally, they enhance energy efficiency, making your conservatory more environmentally friendly.

For those who prefer the elegance of a glass roof, Planet offers solar control glazing options. This glazing regulates the internal temperature while maximising natural light and providing breath-taking aerial views. You can enjoy the beauty of a glass roof without compromising on comfort.

Bi-folding doors

Improve temperature control and airflow in your conservatory by installing bi-folding doors.

These doors are designed to maximise natural ventilation, allowing fresh air to circulate throughout the space.

When fully opened, they create a wide opening, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor areas and ensuring a cool and refreshing ambiance.

Additional tips to stay cool

Proper ventilation is crucial for maintaining a cool conservatory. Install ceiling fans or windows that can be opened to facilitate air circulation and create a pleasant environment.

Additionally, consider adding potted plants or greenery to your conservatory. Through transpiration, plants release moisture into the air, naturally cooling the space and adding a touch of natural beauty.
