All frames that are provided for your conservatory are pre-glazed in the factory. This means that you don’t have to stress over glazing or de-glazing.

That is why we point out our Trading Standards Approval – it means the same thing.

The two materials available are polycarbonate and glass. These both come in a wide variety of choices. These are listed below with details of their performance.

28mm Toughened Clear Sealed Units

These are not suitable for the roof of your conservatory, unless it is situated in a shady position. They can be used in the windows and doors providing that the conservatory is separate from your home accommodation i.e. there is an external rated door between your conservatory and your home. If you can walk directly into your conservatory from your home without having to open a door this glass contravenes the regulations in force in July 2005. We constantly update these notes but it is always worth checking with an advisor in case anything has changed. Regulations may vary in some parts of the UK. U-Value 2.8

28mm Toughened Clear Low E Sealed Units

Low E stands for low emissivity. These units have a coating on them which reduces the amount of heat allowed to pass through the glass in the summer whilst keeping in heat during the winter. These are good for windows and doors but we do not recommend it for roofs unless in a shady position.
