Is your conservatory too hot? Our conservatory window films are the perfect solution to help mitigate excess heat and glare, but also help by reducing the fading of furnishings caused by UV light. It’s stylish, affordable and still allows you to enjoy the view through the glass.
Unlike conservatory blinds, our film is easy to maintain and much more affordable. All our solar film for conservatories can be ordered by the metre or cut to your exact measurements.
To reclaim your conservatory and make it more comfortable on hot sunny days, the best option is to apply conservatory reflective film to the glass which will cut down the level of natural light and reject excess heat before it gets trapped within the room.
The best place to start is with conservatory roof film as the roof amounts to a large glazed area directly facing the sun. If your room is facing South, we would recommend a dark tint or dark conservatory heat reflective film, as long as the double glazed unit is made of toughened glass. If not or if in doubt, select a medium grade film which is suitable for all types of glass.
Once you have addressed the roof, it is then also worth considering the windows and doors around the room. Again, select the darker films for windows exposed directly to the sun for long stretches of time. As a general rule, East facing windows will get the early sun, South facing windows will get sun most of the day, and West facing windows will get the sun in
the evening.
Conservatory roofs are typically made of double glazed units which come with toughened glass. Toughened glass is compatible with all our films including the darker ones. However, on older constructions, it is essential that you check the makup of the glass. If in doubt, please use a medium grade film.
Please select from our range of polycarbonate roof films which are specially formulated for this type of material. Please note that once applied the films cannot be removed.
Conservatory film is a self adhesive material applied using a soapy water solution and a squeegee, making bubbles a thing of the past. Two people are best suited to this type of work and you will need some access equipment to reach the underside of the roof. Do not apply the film on hot days or it will dry too quickly.

The answer is yes, especially on the side windows and doors. However, when it comes to the roof itself, or for large panes, two people are best suited for the job. Please do not apply window film on a conservatory roof on a hot sunny day as the film will dry too quickly making it nigh on impossible to apply. Wait for a dull, cool day or do it early in the morning.
