Climate control glass roof

Hi,


Has anyone tried climate control glass in the roof of their south-facing sun room/conservatory? Does it work?


Our space is unbearably hot in the summer - practically unlivable (the kitchen opens out into the sun room, so staying out of it on hot days isn't an option), so looking into options.


thanks

    Do you have blinds or any sort of window covering? I don'tknow about the glass but you can get conservatory roof blinds which seem to be quite effective.

    We had our polycarbonate roof changed to solar control glass a few years ago. Has a very slight blue tint but you can’t really see it against the sky. It is, without doubt, much better than it was. However, temperatures are still high and sometimes uncomfortable to be in but on those days we close it off to the house. Don’t expect it to take all your problems away even though it is better.

    Have you considered blinds for climate control? Tensioned pleated blinds are worth looking at for roof windows.
