What Is A Warm Roof Conservatory?
What is a warm roof conservatory and how do you know whether it’s the right decision for your home? Simply put, a warm roof conservatory is an insulated roof which protects your conservatory from the elements. Not only does it limit the amount of heat that is lost in winter, but it also protects your conservatory from the sun’s glare in summer. This means that you will be able to use your conservatory year-round, whatever the weather.
If your conservatory gets too cold in the winter, preventing you from making full use of the space, you might be looking for a solution. Conservatories lose most of their heat through the roof, so installing a warm roof on your conservatory is a great way to keep it warm in the winter and enable you to use your space all year round.
Here at Pure Conservatories we specialise in warm roof conservatories and may be able to help you if you are considering an upgrade. We are based in the Wirral but happy to have a chat about your project if you live within a reasonable distance.

What Does A Warm Roof Do?
A warm conservatory roof is a solid and insulated roofing solution which improves the energy efficiency of your conservatory, as well as giving it a modern and elegant appearance.
Traditional conservatory roofs, typically made from polycarbonate or glass, have poor energy efficiency. This means that heat escapes through the roof during winter, leaving the conservatory cold and unusable for the majority of the winter. Not only that, but this type of roof allows the sun to pass readily into the conservatory during summer, causing a greenhouse effect.
In contrast, a solid roof transforms the conservatory into a versatile space that can be used all year round, irrespective of the outside temperature. Not only will this give you a space that you can enjoy throughout the year, but it can also help to reduce your heating bills.

Is It Worth Putting A Warm Roof On A Conservatory?
For many homeowners, the decision to replace your conservatory roof is highly beneficial. Not only will you gain a space that can be used throughout the year, but you could also save money on your energy bills.
Let’s take a look at some of the benefits of installing a warm roof on your conservatory.
Gain New Space
Conservatories are often thought of as being a room that can only be used during the warmer months. Installing a solid roof on your conservatory will create a space that you can enjoy year-round, whether you choose to use it as a dining room, a playroom or simply a space to unwind.
Reduce Energy Bills
Energy bills are a concern for many households at the moment. Upgrading your conservatory roof can help to reduce your energy bills by keeping the heat in and the cold out.
Aesthetics
Solid conservatory roofs are aesthetically pleasing, thanks to their stylish design. You can choose to have your warm conservatory roof tiled to match your existing roofing, or opt for a complete contrast. You can also choose to add a Velux window, skylight or even downlights for added style.
Worry-Free
Polycarbonate conservatory roofs are renowned for not being very durable, suffering regular leaks and requiring frequent maintenance. Installing a solid conservatory roof can extend the lifespan of your conservatory, reducing maintenance requirements and giving you peace of mind over your conservatory.

What Is The Best Type Of Roof For A Conservatory?
There are three main choices when it comes to conservatory roofs: polycarbonate, glass and solid roofs.
Polycarbonate roofs are usually the cheapest option, thanks to their lightweight and easy installation. However, they are extremely inefficient, allowing a large amount of heat to escape from your conservatory. Not only that, but this type of roof is easily damaged during storms and inclement weather conditions, leading to high levels of maintenance being required.
Glass is another traditional choice when it comes to conservatory roofs. Whilst glass roofs look stylish, they require regular cleaning to keep them looking their best. They’re also extremely inefficient when it to comes to energy, and you’ll notice that your conservatory is cold in the winter and hot in the summer, meaning you can only use it in spring and autumn.
A solid conservatory roof is a great choice for most conservatories. It provides an extra layer of insulation, keeping the heat in during the winter and shielding from the sun’s glare in the summer. This helps to keep your energy bills down, as well as giving you a versatile space that you can enjoy all year round.
Your solid conservatory roof will also be tiled to match your existing roofing, making an aesthetically pleasing addition to your home. You can choose to add skylights, Velux windows or even downlights to match the individual style of your home.
The advantages of a solid conservatory roof make this a popular choice amongst homeowners. Whilst there are many different solid roof solutions to choose from, at Pure Conservatories we favour the LEKA roof system. With a U-rating of just 0.15, LEKA is one of the most energy-efficient conservatory roof solutions on the market, and it comes complete with a 40 year warranty, so you can sleep easy at night.
