News: How The Design Of A Glassroom Can Be Energy Efficient

2023 Summer Tips

A glassroom is a dream of many homeowners. Not only an extension of covered outdoor space for your property, a glassroom could help you to save on your energy bills. Providing passive solar heating, increasing ventilation, and enhancing insulation are some exceptional advantages of Glassrooms. Let’s find out more in this article.

Passive solar heating

Nowadays, people seek to reduce their energy costs due to growing expenses of gas and electricity. Acting as a passive solar collector, a closed glassroom could allow sunlight to enter and keep the space warm. This can reduce the need for artificial heating during the day.

Increased Insulation

A glassroom could also provide additional insulation to your home. For example, in summer, your home heats up quickly through the windows, but a glassroom can block the heat out for a longer period of time. As a result, the house remains cooler, and you don't need to run your air conditioning. With drop down blinds and shading you can eliminate heat from the sun and keep cooler on hot days for longer.

On the contrary, in the winter, the heat in your home can leak out, and a perfectly fitted glassroom could act as extra insulation for your home. This means you won't have to turn on the heating as quickly and can save energy.

Improved ventilation

When installing a glassroom, natural ventilation can be incorporated as a design featureThe weinor glassroom is not designed to be airtight because the air movement between the glass panels prevents heat generation and humid production. Hence, the customers could request to have a passive, permanent ventilation system built into the roof, if desired. Natural ventilation refers to the process of allowing fresh air to enter and circulate within a space without the use of mechanical systems. In a glassroom, natural ventilation can be achieved by using sliding doors that can be opened to allow outside air to enter and circulate. This can help to improve indoor air quality and reduce the need for air conditioning in the summer, leading to energy savings. Additionally, natural ventilation can also help to regulate temperature and reduce condensation, making the space more comfortable for occupants.
