A common problem for homeowners with conservatories or orangeries is excessive heat and how to stop their living spaces from overheating. Many people worry that they cannot enjoy these spaces at the hotter times of the year. But modern shading solutions such as those offered from Appeal can help.

This issue of conservatories overheating often stems from the fact that many older designs are not fully energy efficient. Many conservatories and properties built in the UK were designed to retain heat in mind. This meant that if a homeowner ever found themselves with a cold and rainy day (as is all too common in the UK), a conservatory would remain warm and cosy.

However, this becomes an issue when the outdoors are incredibly sunny. This means that conservatories’ abilities to retain heat effectively becomes a disadvantage, rather than an advantage. This held heat can become overbearing, making them incredibly uncomfortable and even inhospitable.

As such, conservatories can become uncomfortable for a significant part of the year, which can be quite limiting and disheartening for many homeowners. That’s why we’ve put together this comprehensive guide on how to stop your conservatory overheating with home shading.

Overheating occurs when your conservatory’s ability to retain heat inside clashes with the hot weather outside. How does this happen? Conservatories are often built using energy efficient glass. Whether the windows are single, double or triple glazed, they all possess small pockets of space between the panels of glass. This effectively reduces heat transfer from the inside to the outside, trapping inside your home. So how can the right shading help with this?
