One final note on getting the heat down in your conservatory in the summer months…. Don’t wait until the heat builds up to an unbearable point before you open your roof vents. Automate your vents….
During the summer months the temperature can rise quickly causing the heat in your conservatory to build up fast. Let’s face it, we don’t get on with our daily lives and chores thinking constantly about our conservatory overheating. In fact, we probably don’t think about it at all until we want to relax with a sandwich at lunchtime, or sit and have a nice cool drink in the evening looking out at the garden. By this time its probably at least a little on the hot side!
The good news is that you can automate your vents with climate control. This will automatically open them
Last week we looked at the use of roof vents to release some of that heat build-up in your conservatory helping you to be able to use the room in the hot summer months.
The Glazing Shop offers a perfect solution to ponds freezing over during the coldest month of the year, February. While temperatures plummet outside, ponds can become easily frozen, endangering the fish within. With our polycarbonate sheets, you can stave off the worst of the cold and protect your fish easily and quickly.
Our 16mm and 25mm polycarbonate sheets are ideal to protect your pond, and they are a popular solution to this issue. You can enter your measurements on our website and find out the cost quickly and easily. We are happy to discuss bespoke requirements such as unusual measurements.
Where polycarbonate is used as a roof sheet it is nearly always “multiwall” (the only major exception to this is where solid polycarbonate sheets are used for Overdoor canopies). Multiwall sheets are extruded to produce a number of internal walls which create chambers within the sheet. The number of chambers differs depending upon which sheet thickness you are using.
4mm, 6mm and 10mm thick polycarbonate sheets normally have just two walls and are refered to as twinwall
16mm polycarbonate sheets have three walls, creating two chambers and are known as triple wall
25mm Polycarbonate comes in a variety of designs but the most popular has an “X” type structure with 7 internal walls
