Information on Solar Inserts
What They Do
Solar inserts with their integral solar protection prevent up to
80% of the suns’ solar energy from entering the conservatory
through the roof, helping maintain a comfortable internal
temperature. The roof will also reduce glare by 80%, further
increasing comfort levels. In winter, most of the heat lost escapes
through the roof; with a solar inserts roof a large proportion of
rising heat is radiated back into the room, helping to maintain a
comfortable temperature.
