How do you choose the right roof for your conservatory? It's an important question. That's why AKENA conservatories can help and guide you. So you can choose the conservatory roof panels that are right for you.

The glass

Completely transparent, it offers an extraordinary view of the sky and gives the impression of living in the middle of nature. In this case, we recommend that you opt for reinforced insulation glazing. Regular maintenance will be necessary, and marks caused by the weather or vegetation will obviously be more visible than on an opaque roof. Idyllic conservatory roof panels for anyone who wants to bring nature into their home, whatever the season.

Polycarbonate

This type of roof panel is not transparent, but lets light through while avoiding the greenhouse effect. It is recommended for sunny regions, as it prevents heat build-up in the conservatory.

Sandwich roof panels

However, there's nothing to stop you designing your roof to suit your tastes and the amount of light you feel is important. It's easy to imagine a Conservatory roof made up of glass in the living room extension to give light and sandwich panels around the perimeter to provide insulation.
