A warm conservatory roof is a great way to save money on your energy bills this year. With the steep rise in energy prices, it’s only natural to want to find a way to reduce payments wherever possible. With this in mind, we’ve put together a useful overview on the matter, to help save you money and improve your home in the process.
Signs That You Need A New Conservatory Roof
Before we begin to cover how a new conservatory roof can improve thermal efficiency around the home, it’s important to shed some light on the signs of a damaged roof, so that you can look out for these signals.
Damp
Damp patches can be a sign of a damaged conservatory roof. Although there are other causes, often broken seals, worn-out components, and aged panels can result in dampness getting into the room. Dampness leads to mould, and moisture in the air coupled with spores can be a recipe for poor health. Therefore, it’s important to repair or replace a roof if you’re noticing this sign.
Leaks
Visible leaks are the most obvious sign of a damaged conservatory roof. If you can see water running into your conservatory then it’s a clear sign you need emergency repairs before it causes further damage. Additionally, it may also be an indication that the roof needs to be replaced altogether to avoid this in the future.
Temperature
Is your conservatory colder than usual? A drop in temperature can indicate extra ventilation or escape points for heat within your home. We advise contacting a professional to assess the repairs needed to return your conservatory to its usual state.
How An Insulated Conservatory Roof Can Improve Energy Efficiency
Installing a new insulated conservatory roof can help keep your room warm and energy efficient. Old, worn out or damaged roofs often create escape points for warm air, and this can cost the property owner. With an insulated roof, you create a sealed environment that limits heat transfer through the panels. Not only this, but insulation can also mitigate the sun’s rays from permeating your roof, resulting in better regulation of temperature, and removing the need to open windows.
