Challenge
A residential conservatory with a glass roof was experiencing intense heat and glare, which significantly reduced the usability of the space. The homeowners desired a simple yet effective solution to make their conservatory comfortable throughout the year without altering its transparent character.
Solution
The Silver 20 window film was selected for its exceptional heat and glare reduction properties and has been proven to be the most cost-effective method to reduce energy bills with its insulation properties. Here’s why it was the perfect fit for the conservatory:
Heat Reduction: Silver 20 window film is known for its ability to reflect a significant portion of solar energy, thus reducing heat build-up.
