Keep your conservatory warm this winter with these simple tips

Check for drafts

There’s really no point investing in ways to make your conservatory warmer if all of your heat is escaping through a draft. Whilst most houses tend to have some form of insulation, a lot of conservatories are prone to losing warm air due to their glass walls and ceiling. So even if you put some form of a heater in your conservatory, chances are that you may just be burning through money, and it will actually have very little effect on the overall temperature of your room. Including draft excluders on the doors and making sure your window seals are tip-top can be a good addition to your winter checklist.

One of the most popular ways to regulate the temperature in your home is to fit window shutters, which will stop hot air escaping, and in turn, bring down your heating bill. Shutters work similarly to the way that cavity wall insulation or a new roof would. They provide a barrier between areas that typically would lose a lot of heat, making sure that your conservatory stays snug and the heat stays where it is supposed to.
