Solar Inserts
SOLAR CONTROL INSERTS for Polycarbonate Roofs
The Product
Our patented transparent Solar Control Inserts are designed to reflect heat away from your conservatory in the summer to help keep it cool and to insulate in the winter without compromising light levels or the light airy feel of your conservatory. They are simply fitted into the top chamber of your polycarbonate roof and there performance far surpasses that of the best internal blinds. Not only do they reflect the heat and insulate in the winter, they also significantly reduce glare, and protect against furniture and furnishings fading. The Inserts come with a 10 year guarantee although as they are incorporated into your roof they will last at least as long as your roof does.
The Statistics
- 80% of the suns heat is reflected away before entering your conservatory.
- 50% of winter heat loss is reflected back inside.
- 99% of U-V rays are excluded.
- Significantly reduces glare.
How it works
Heat build up in your conservatory is caused by the ‘Greenhouse Effect’. The sun passes through your Polycarbonate Roof and heats the contents of your conservatory. The heat given off by the things inside your conservatory cannot escape as the wave lengths are different to when they entered your conservatory. As a result your conservatory heats up a lot faster than the outside air. Sun Shield’s Solar Control Inserts are made from Polymer films of the highest optical clarity which contain finely divided metals and metal oxides. These transmit or reflect chosen wave lengths before they enter your conservatory therefore preventing the heat build up from occurring, they also allow light to enter, protect against fading, and to give high performance winter insulation.
