Keeping Your Conservatory Cool All Summer Long

When the summer heat rises, some conservatories can quickly become uncomfortable due to the excess heat. However, with a few simple adjustments, you can create a cool and enjoyable space in your conservatory.

Fortunately for our customers, conservatories designed and built by West Yorkshire Windows provide year-round useability.

Whether you own a conservatory or plan to invest in one, consider the following tips to keep it comfortably cool.

Solid roofs or solar control roofs

Installing a solid roof in your conservatory is an effective way to reduce heat and maintain a cooler environment.

Unlike traditional glass or polycarbonate roofs, solid roofs offer better insulation, minimising heat transfer and keeping the space comfortable during hot summer days. They also contribute to energy efficiency, making them a practical choice.

If you prefer the aesthetic appeal of a glass roof, West Yorkshire Windows provides solar control glazing options. The glazing regulates the internal temperature of the conservatory while maximising natural light and offering panoramic views.

Bi-folding doors

To improve airflow and temperature control, consider installing bi-folding doors in your conservatory.

These best-selling doors are designed to optimise natural ventilation, allowing fresh air to circulate throughout the space.

When fully opened, they create a wide opening that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor areas, providing a versatile and breezy environment.

Additional tips for cooling

Ensure proper ventilation in your conservatory by installing ceiling fans or windows that can be opened. This promotes air circulation and helps maintain a cool atmosphere.

Another effective strategy is to introduce potted plants or greenery. Plants naturally release moisture through transpiration, which cools the surrounding air and adds a touch of natural beauty to your conservatory.
