Do you need to use the ThermaFrost Tint?
No, you don’t have to use it however it will help protect the insulation from sun damage because it helps prevent 60% of UV rays from getting through. It also gives a white opaque look to the roof of your conservatory rather than seeing the silver foil through the glass. ThermaFrost is not suitable for plastic or polycarbonate roofs.
Do you need to batten before installing the insulation?
The insulation works best with a 25mm gap between the glass of the conservatory and the insulation. The insulation will expand into the space, so you get full benefits from the insulation.
Will the Insulation make the Conservatory roof warmer during the summer?
No, it will do the opposite and will reflect the heat away from the conservatory, so it stays cooler instead of getting warmer during the summer.
Is this insulation lightweight enough?
Depending on which product is used, the weight is between 400g to 800g per m², making it very lightweight and will not cause any problems to the structure of the conservatory roof. If you are concerned about weight on the roof, you may consider a lightweight plastic cladding for the internal finish.
What battens do you recommend?
We recommend treated 25mm x 25mm timber battens either side of our insulation.
Will it prevent rain noise?
Insulating with our multifoil followed by internal boarding will create a much quieter room.
