Which insulation is best to use in a conservatory?
The best multifoil to use when insulating a conservatory roof would be our EcoQuilt Expert this is due to the material being thinner when compacted, lighter and easier to install overhead.
Although SuperQuilt can also be used under a conservatory roof too, it just doesn’t compress as much as Ecoquilt, lowering the ceiling height.
Do I need to leave an air gap either side of multifoils when installing?
Yes, to get the maximum thermal performance from our multifoils, it is essential to leave an airspace either side of the product.
This allows them to reflect and perform to their highest potential. If space either side isn’t possible, then at least one airspace is vital.
How do I work out how many rolls of ThermaSeal Foil Joining Tape l will need?
On average, we recommend using one roll of ThermaSeal Foil Joining Tape for every 30 Square Metres of Material.
Thermaseal Foil Joining Tape comes on 75mm x 50m Rolls. Please visit our Things You’ll Need page to purchase this and view other handy products you may require for your project.
What does the term R-Value mean?
An R-Value is a measure of resistance to the flow of heat through a given thickness of a material, such as insulation. Higher numbers indicate better insulating properties.
