Energy Efficiency
Originally, conservatories were thought likely to reduce household energy consumption. In theory, this ‘buffer space’ should passively collect solar energy, pre-heating the house and reducing the need for additional central heating.
However, this theory relied on the conservatory being used during warmer months only, rather than all year round as part of the main house. A survey found the reality is quite different. Of 1800 respondents, 91% said they heat their conservatories and 50% of those said they do so regularly. A recent update of this work shows trends towards year-round conservatory use and the installation of heating and now also cooling systems is increasing.
The irony is that such spaces lose heat at ten times the rate of conventional insulated rooms, even when double-glazed. Thus conservatories substantially increase energy usage by some households rather than delivering the 10% reduction in overall household energy usage originally predicted.
