What Glass Roof Conservatory options are available?
Choosing the right high-performance Glass Roof Conservatory is the most essential element. This will ensure that you can use your conservatory all year round, allow the right amount of heat and light in. Before having your conservatory installed you may want to consider the location, a temperature control option, maintenance, aesthetics, and durability. The following information will help you choose the right elements for you and your conservatory. The following list is a selection of the Ambience range available.

• Reduce the internal temperature (particularly with a south facing aspect by up to 9’C during the hottest summer months)
Ambi Blue – Self Cleaning
• Delicate blue tint
• Offers up to 60% reflection from the suns rays
• Reduces the internal temperature of a conservatory
• 53% reduction from the suns glare (protects furniture and fabrics from fading)
Ambi Bronze – Self Cleaning
• Developed to ensure that this attractive tinted roof glass (ideal for matching most modern conservatory colours)
• 55% reflection from the sun’s heat (helps to reduce temperatures inside the conservatory making it much cooler in use)
Ambi Neutral – Self Cleaning

• Centre pane u-values as low as 0.7 some 30% better than the standard double glazed roof glass
• Enhanced sound reduction & improved solar control
• Privacy and self-cleaning coatings
• Benefits of our Low E product
Self Cleaning Glass
• Reacts with UV rays in sunlight to generate a photocatalytic process (loosens and breaks down organic dirt particles on the surface of the glass)
• The surface coating is hydrophilic (attracts water so that it spreads and forms a thin fi lm that ‘sheets’ away quickly, and dries off without leaving unsightly ‘drying spots’)
• Self-cleaning glass leaves (less dirt and grime adhering to the glass resulting in the glass staying cleaner for longer, meaning less maintenance is needed)
U-Value
• Air-to-air heat transmission (loss or gain due to thermal conductance and the difference in indoor and outdoor temperatures)
• U-Value decreases (the amount of heat that is transferred through the glazing material)
• Lower the U-Value, the more restrictive the fenestration product is to heat transfer (Reciprocal of the R-Value)
• Strikes an optimum balance between economy and ecology (the lower the U-Value, the more efficient the insulation)
Solar Factor
• Solar control glass helps regulate the amount of solar energy that enters a building
• Solar control glass saves money by reducing the amount of energy used (heating and air conditioning systems, and boosts comfort levels inside the building by controlling indoor temperatures and light levels)
Light Transmission
• Measures light passing through glass. Too much light can create an uncomfortable environment with glare becoming a particular problem. Insufficient light transmittance can result in reduced visibility.
