Conservatories are a popular addition to many homes, providing a versatile space that can be used for relaxation, entertaining, or even as a home office. At Abbey Windows, we know that with energy prices rising it has never been more important to make your home, and in this case your conservatory, more environmentally friendly. In this article, we will explore some helpful tips that could save you money this winter.
Insulate Your Conservatory Roof and Walls
One of the main areas where heat is lost in a conservatory is through the roof and walls. At Abbey Windows, we supply and install a stunning range of conservatories with high-performance double glazing. Double glazing helps reduce heat transfer from outside, which is a great way of saving money on heating bills. You can also add thermal blinds for extra insulation, which could also help prevent heat from building up during the day.
Upgrade to Double Glazed Windows and Doors
Another effective way to improve the energy efficiency of your conservatory is by upgrading to double glazed windows and doors. Double glazing consists of two glass panes with a layer of insulating gas in between. This could help improve thermal insulation and retain heat, which could help transform your conservatory into a warmer space.
At Abbey Windows, we supply and install bifold doors and French doors, which come with advanced double glazing and a robust thermal barrier that traps warm air indoors. What’s more, you have the option of using low emission glass, which reflects sunlight in your conservatory.
Install Energy Efficient Lighting
Lighting can also contribute to the energy consumption of your conservatory. By replacing traditional bulbs with energy-efficient LED lights, you can significantly reduce your energy usage. LED lights are more energy-efficient, have a longer lifespan, and produce less heat. This could be ideal during the winter months when the temperature drops.
Install Underfloor Heating
Installing underfloor heating is a great way of warming up your conservatory. It helps distribute the heat on your conservatory floor, so it could be a cleaner and smarter way of saving on energy bills. While underfloor heating operates at a lower temperature, it can help achieve the same level of comfort throughout your home.
